Fuck unfinished titles that are priced at almost a hundred at launch; I'd rather wait a year or two and buy the same thing for 15 EUR.

Edit: and yes, if you buy those at launch, you are part of the problem.

same. I have over a thousand games on my steam account and a humble bundle subscription.

I can wait years to pick up the all DLC included gold game of the year edition for 5 bucks on sale.

only time i ever get games on release anymore is if a friend gifts it to me, or if it comes as part of a bundle with new hardware (Like how I got Starfield with my new GPU)
