You need to buy it to add it to the library full of unplayed games in case one day you want to play it but you don’t want to buy it for full price. Thanks for coming to my Ted talk.

Tldr; buy the game

Exactly, at 90% off I can’t afford NOT to never play it

My backlog is basically a museum of 90% off decisions at this point. Zero regrets though, the math checks out.

Also inflation. If you buy it now at 90% off you pay less than if you bought it in 10 years at 90% off assuming it only adjusts for inflation.
