We’ve got two big sales going on, and I’m currently deciding what I would like to pick up. I’m planning to get Expeditions: Rome since it’s 60% off, and I’m trying to decide if I want to finally get Terra Invicta.

What patient games are the people here planning to pick up? Maybe I’ll find a few that I “need” to try!

    Prices are largely in line with historical prices, after inflation. $70 today is worth about the same as $50 in 2011. IIRC, new releases were often $60 back then, so new games may actually be cheaper today than ever.

    That doesn’t make it any better though. I’m patient because games don’t release in a solid state these days, and by the time they’re properly patched, they’re on a solid discount. I’m not paying $70 to be a beta tester, I’d rather pay <$50 for a solid, patched game, even better if it’s less.
