I’m not buying anything with a discount less than 50% given how many games I haven’t played in my library. Which sucks because indie games usually don’t do sale that deep.
Well to balance that out indie games are normally a lot cheaper. Underrail is only $9 off on GoG but that’s a 60% discount. It’s rare to get a kinda modern AAA game that cheap.
Indies are usually shorter, so I usually make exceptions for them despite having tons of unplayed games, especially during holidays when I have more time to play.
I’m a lot more conservative with buying AAAs though because they’re usually longer and have steeper discounts after a few years. So if I’m not super excited to play them right now, I can usually buy them next year at like half the price.
So for me, I’ll pick up indies at 20-50% off, and AAAs at 60-80% off, unless I’m really interested in the game (i.e. I’d start it right away).
Why would you waste your money buying some denuvo DRM protected game when you can just have it free?
