You say “reminder” like you just made a factual comment. Its literally a completely subjective value appraisal by you.
There are plenty of reasons to buy at full price:
You want to support the dev (many of these reasons can be suspect to me but its still a valid reason for a perspective buyer)
You want to play the game right now, as opposed to waiting to where you wont want to play the game
Many multiplayer games are most fun initially before the awful meta and hyper online people screw the fun out of it/force it all to be competitive af/necessitate you needing to look up guides
Speaking of multiplayer, you might want to play with friends/be social
It’s just not that much money to you
Personally, I’ve stopped trying to do any sort of trick to save money on games because I realized I actually probably ended up spending more on games that were on sale that Id just never actually bother playing than when I just bought a game the second I felt like playing it and then played it. It ended up being a bit of a fallacy for me, and I imagine its the same for many other people.
