I'm in the same boat as the parent poster, with the added wrinkle that I won't pay $90 (CAD, with taxes) for any game. I have too many great unplayed games (mostly from bundles), so I can't justify spending that much on a single game. Especially with cost of living rising so much in the last few years.

But BG3 will still be good in 5 years when I can get it for $20-30. I'm in no rush.
