Oh I can wait.

I've waited for Alan Wake 2. I've waited for countless of other games, time is on my side.

I have so many games in my backlog and on my steam wishlist, I dont really even care if some great game will miss steam. However, I will buy good games without denuvo and sometimes I can even pay the full price upon release. Rare, but a few times a year this can happen.

My switch collects dust because I've grown a custom to picking up 10-15 games for the same price as a three year old title on the switch.

Switch game prices are ridiculous! I think my (teenage) kids have 4 games for their Switch because nobody wants to pay those prices. I don't know how many 100s of dollars they've spent on Steam games over the years at $5-20 per game, but they're never willing to spend $40-60 and they won't even put Switch games on their wishlist at that price.

It's tough man, It just doesn't feel good.

I finally picked up a steam deck so I can find more time to enjoy my library. It's weird how your attitude changes when you start using your gaming PC for studying or work. I just don't want to sit there for a few more hours after spending three or four working on something.

For a second I thought Alan Wake 2 is out on Steam.

Yeah, Epic. I dont care how good this game is. I utterly hate your store.

I regularly buy the free games on Epic. I don't know if I've played any of them, but I buy them frequently.

Same. I grab every free game they have (I even have alerts set up), but will never spend a cent on their trash storefront. I do occasionally play something from my library if my friends want to play it, but otherwise my library just sits there gathering dust.

I still haven't even started Kingdom Hearts 3 (I know, I know), which I pre-ordered before I even owned a PS4 (I know, I know). And now it's looking like I'll be able to play that on PC before playing it on the console I bought specifically for it. I can wait these fuckers out for decades if I have to.
