Other than a slew of Nintendo titles that maybe hopefully will come down in price (the patient gamers’ bane), I have my eye on the next time Divinity: Original Sin 2 goes on sale. A friend who never plays anything other than WoW loved playing Larian’s newest with me and I’m trying to get her to pick this up. Pretty sure she’d like it.
I was also watching Star Trek: Infinite’s progress. I was quite interested in that one at launch but firmly decided to be patient. Naturally, it was discontinued last week. Oof.
Are there any games you’re currently price watching? Or hoping for bug fixes/more content?
With Fez I feel I may have forever missed the window when I could have picked it up. It used to go on sale for $1.99 with an all time low of $0.99. Now it never gets under $4.99.
In a vacuum I’d probably just pick it up for 4.99 but knowing the pricing history I just can’t do it.
Elden Ring. Waiting for a game + DLC bundle because I refuse to buy DLCs on their own.
BG3 honestly. I‘m not willing to pay more than 40 bucks for a digital copy of a game no matter how good - especially considering the amount of games that I have piled up waiting to be played.
Oh, and Persona 3.
VA-11 Hall-A. I played like an hour of it when it was on gamepass and liked it a lot, but then it left and I’ve been waiting on a sale ever since. It’s not like it’s even that expensive, but I’d hope to get it like 50% off because it came out in like 2016.
Oh, I got it in a HumbleBundle years ago. Very good game, could probably do a replay of it
Apparently GOG has it for 33% off right now which is basically the historical low, so I’ll probably pick it up. Glad to hear you liked it, I’ve heard nothing but good things so far
Ugh I hate to admit it, but I haven’t got Disgaea 6 Complete and will eventually, probably. I enjoyed 5, I heard 6 is worse, but they make lovely Deck games.
That said, you have to first wait for a complete version (f all that dlc noise) and then the discount. For crying out loud there’s already a 7.
There’s probably a few others but that’s the first that comes to mind.
Ah, a NISA series. Not quite as slow a publisher as Nintendo for pricing but still difficult for patient gaming.
I remember when they raised the price of Ys VIII well after release.
Ah… I remember that too. RIP us.
