    Like waiting 6 months for them to panic over low sales and put on 50% sale?

    Maybe, or maybe I’ll wait for the ultimate edition with all dlc to hit $40

      When $40 is half price, I will generally pass as if it were $80. There is a glut of amazing content out there for $40 or less, and much of it is truly inspired indie work. When your half-price game is competing with great full-price indie titles, I will continue to ignore your overpriced corporate muck.

      I mean 50% off and still being $40 still sounds like a terrible deal

        Right? I didn’t realize how disinterested I was in Borderlands until I read that.

      Borderlands 3 is in a free giveaway after a year or so on Epic Games. The sales must be abysmal to give a flagship franchise away for free, because of Randy being a bitch and insist exclusive is good. This will hopefully bite them back like last time.

        I wouldn’t advise using those services, myself. Lots of sketchy stuff. Legit copies of digital games go on sale often enough.

      I got Borderlands 3 about a year after release for less than 5€, I can wait.
