So what games have you bought in the objectively superior summer sale so far?

So what games have you bought in the objectively superior summer sale so far?

I don't get the hype around summer sales.
What's the point in buying games for dirt cheap when you could obtain them for no money?

Because you could be supporting good games instead of supporting a socialist model where artists get paid by the government to make shitty video games like Depression Quest and whatever the fuck Tale of Tales or whatever they're called makes. Sales are a good way to try out developer and form an opinion on their ability as well as obtain older games for cheap signalling publishers that "THIS IS WHAT I WANT!" rather than whatever trash heap they shit out next. That second one is hit or miss however.

Basically capitalism.

shouldn't have replied man, it's no use, and you feed them

So, who cares about some developer if you're still getting his game for free? Free games for you, so who cares about anyone else?

What if I'm specifically not supporting many of these "artists" because they're from a diseased and crooked industry that's controlled by a publishers; where almost every old IP is now owned by them? Where with each purchase you're funding the degeneration of actual talent and skill in favour for ideologues and greedy businessmen who simply want to push poorly made, poorly written trash?
Even the purchase of some indie games will lead to funding these people, as they often use publishers who also allow walking simulators to be released.
Your argument of "supporting the artists" also doesn't work considering you're buying games like Deus Ex; where the original people who made it are getting none of the profit. So the moral argument goes out the window.

The only time I believe you should by a game is if it's a truly good, self-published game by a developer with no shady background.

gog is fucking cancer.
Unfortunatley they established a fucking fanbase thast is as retarded as steams. Hell, they willingly swallowed DRM and the galaxy bullshit you need by now to play specific games.
