Do it. If people want to pay high prices for brand new video games, let them pay it. I'll just do what I've always done; wait for a sale.

You realize this consequentially also increases the reduced price of a sale, right?

You realize that sales come in varying magnitudes, right? Each individual decides what a game is worth to them, and if that means a 50% sale might have been sufficient for a $60 game, but that it'll take a 65% sale to make an $80 game worth it, then so be it.

Please understand how percentages work, because that's quite literally not true.

If you wait enough the sale % will drop ex: from a 50% sale to 70% a sale
