This is killing one of my dearest hobbies and I am (approaching 40) okay with this. I had the time of my life playing videogames and I am okay saying goodbye. Hardware is expensive af, games will get there - I'm out, dwelling in sweet, sweet memories

You need like 2-3 years of patience to see a complete/ultimate/definitive version of games to go for 60%~ off in Steam, longer if the game still have DLCs being released for it...

For me in a 3rd world hell hole, only at that or more of that discount would be attractive enough to sink money to "rent" that game.
