- Be Strong to Wait , and Enjoy Alternatives until then
- this "method\strategy" has worked for me more than 20 years,
- and help me to save money but at the sametime enjoy "old" videogames,
- money that i can use for make infinite upgrades to my pc and\or to get a cheap xbox + xbox game pass...
- if instead you will be "impulsive" (and believe me,i has been more than you in the start of my journey in gaming) then you will lose more money,you must be strong to avoid "hype feeling" when there is new trailers\games etc.
- just add to "Wishlist" instead of buy,the games is in the SERVERS of the STORE (steam,gog,epic etc.) so you NOT LOSE IT...
- and if\when one day someone decide to "Remove the game from the store\Delist" not worry that you will notice it via medias (videogames news\twitter etc.) so you NOT lose nothing if you wishlist instead of buy...
- 1)
- Before to buy a videogame i check if the game i want play it's already in
- Xbox Game Pass
- https://www.xbox.com/it-IT/xbox-game-pass
- Ubisoft Plus
- https://plus.ubisoft.com/
- or EA Play subscriptions
- https://www.ea.com/it-it/ea-play
- a) if yes i try it , then if i NOT like it not buy
- b) if is a short game i can finish it in 15 days i do
- as you can see i play a lot of wonderful games

- 2)
- i get more than $2000€ free videogames at Epic Games Store\Gog
- Full list here: https://pastebin.com/w4JJhcuP
- GTAV,Prey,Deliver Us Mars,Just Cause 4,Death Stranding,Borderlands 3,The Outer Worlds,Shenmue 3,Subnautica,Breathedge,
- Dishonored: Death of the Outsider,Rime,Soulstice,Dying Light,BioShock: The Collection...
- just some examples
- -i use also COUPON discount in epic when\if avaible
- -i use Epic GIVEBACK 5% when if good deal for me
- -i enjoy also steam trials or weekends
- 3)
- i WAIT 2 years (minimum) before to buy a game this will grant me :
- A) game is patched\fixed already
- B) maybe -50%\-80% discount (or free)
- Example pay Days Gone $12€ instead of $69,99€
- Proof image: https://twitter.com/DavideSpagocci/status/1740942798885667122
- C) Dlcs included
- E) to can afford the hw for play it (most of time games when is released not run well on that years hw)
- 4)
- it's a better deal to buy games in Steam,Gog,Epic Games
- Most of time Playstation\Nintendo stores has prices 4 times MORE expensive than Steam\Epic deals
- Example a game that you can get for $10€ in STEAM is $59,99€ in PLaystation\Nintendo Store
- 5)
- i never buy a Playstation or Nintendo console,
- i ignore the "Exclusive" advertising\influencers,
- i play others WONDERFUL multiplatform videogames,that maybe is BETTER than exclusives..
- the if\when PS\Nin games come to PC Steam or Epic i would be happy to buy it (at $12€ after 2-4 years with all DLCS)
- 6)i check regional prices in website SteamDB example:
- https://steamdb.info/app/1708091/
- Create account in country with lower price,find an alternative way to put money in wallet of it,get game cheaper
- 7)
- i build pc with $800€ (RTX2+i512400 etc) and play all today top games with fg mods or fsr3+fg
- see https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL-BO_IOXVN_xeoshGzQvo1tFNB4KDbKs7
- i use Frame Generation read here:
- https://pastebin.com/NGec3BdM
- So i can play 60FPS Ultra 1080P with RTX2 i not need RTX4
- PC Enable me to have access to FULL Graphic settings,
- This can enable me to
- A) SEE the game as i Like (disable effect you NOT like,gain fps)
- B) Avoid to buy new HW when is NOT necessary
- (example play 60fps 1080p,instead of buy new consoles\gpu for play 4K that you is NOT interested about)
- PC allow you also to Search Jobs,Study\Learn,Build\ Create
- i can repair PC for cheap,use any controllers,software etc. playstation\nintendo can't (expensive branded controllers,security paired keys between soc\mobo etc,no multiple stores,no software freedom etc)
- in consoles viceversa is opposite,all is expensive and for fraud you or for block you to do things the only thing console is created for,is for sell you games at prices X4,so i'm not a big fan of them.
- 8)
- if a game have DRM i not buy,i buy play others games,if\when drm is removed i buy.
- 9)
- i NOT disagree to use cracks\bypass and NO i NOT need to support devs or publishers
- (they never support me since i born and until i die)
- Rule of my life is,i HELP\support who HELP\support ME,
- i DONT HELP\support who NOT help\support me
- if a game is selled at more than $30€*
- i go
- https://cs.rin.ru/forum/search.php
- Write steam app id
- download and play free by apply Goldenberg steamworks bypass or cracks
- or i use fitgirl\dodi repacks etc.
- 10)
- i NOT disagree to use cracks\bypass and NO i NOT need to support devs or publishers
- (they never support me since i born and until i die)
- if a game is selled at more than $30€*
- and is online-only\server-side ,
- i buy,play,save savegames,refund (and repeat this)
- until i finish it and refund (so i play it free)
- i disagree online\server-side games.
- *The reason is in my life i see that videogames after 2 years is priced $12\30€
- they get devalued,so i not want pay something $60€ if after 2 years is value $12\30€
- So if publisher sell it at decent\honest $12\30€ price since start ok i buy,
- if instead they sell it at 40\50\60\90\120 etc. i not buy.
- 11) i not buy Consoles as PAYstation or LieTendo
- Consoles is MoneySuckers,i avoid them,
- i NOT say that others people don't need to buy it,
- i understand that for others people consoles could be a better choice for many reasons...
- But for me they is NOT a good deal,
- Top of all this i disagree about PLaystation or Nintendo:
- -i disagree They force the user to
- a) buy their Branded Expensive Controllers
- b) buy "Amiibo" plastic garbages (instead of just sw dlcs)
- c) buy in their 1 Single Store with X4 expensive prices
- -No right to repair (+ mobo\soc locked with secret keys that block repairs)
- -The fact that they use branded Powersupply,so when that broken and the brand DISCONTINUE IT,you are not able to use your console (and the FAKE ones you find in markets broken after 2 months,without to talk about what you RISK for health if you try to do "MGiver" with pc powersupply by yourself...)
- -No right to do maintenance and this is absurd if you thing that these closed boxed after some years will become FULL of Dust and need also Thermal Paste changing but you are NOT able to do it (so the console then broken for overheating)
- 12)
- in 2012 i start a lawsuit CS MS,Pony and Lietendo,
- (yes me alone vs all 3 most big in market)
- for the right of repair and hack,
- after 4 years in 2016 i win,
- (because they lock hw by not provide keys and tools to me for repair it)
- and i'm the only one in my country that was able to do this,
- so you can imagine how much i not care about all people that is opposite opinion.
- This said i BUY\PAY and own license to play many than 2000 Videogames on STEAM
- and i BUY\PAY and own license to play many than 1000 games on XBOX
- Because if\when a game is sell at honest price,or it's very good quality,
- i BUY\PAY it for support the developer\publisher of it.
- But if the game is BAD quality,if is NOT optimized,
- if have DRM,Online checks and all this bad things,
- i not want to buy\pay\support who do this,
- and i not disagree to do all i can do for get it free
- 13) if a game don't have Single Player Campaign (100% Playable offline) i NOT BUY.
- 14) if a game have PAY SKINS instead of FREE skins, i NOT BUY.
- 15)
- if a game allow Mods
- or
- Steamworks
- or provide Tools for community addons
- i BUY it at day one release
- Cyberpunk\Starfield\Fallout etc.
- Because is a way for me to give a kick in the ***
- of all other games that instead sell separate pay contents
- see for example japaneses publishers games based on cartoon games that sell characters separated,or fight games (Naturo,Dragonball,StreetFighter,MortalKombat etc.)
- i hate this way to sell games,they milking fanbase kiddos by separate all contents of the game,
- it's a fraud scam,it's absurd that it is legal to do.
- 16)
- i do https://rewards.bing.com it allow me to earn $5€ free every month,i can use that for discount in xbox games or XGP subscription
- 17)
- i do market steam,
- buy items lower price,
- sell highter,
- this allow me do little profit steam market =
- get little discount in steam
- (Around $2€ every 1 month)
- i do this for FUN and because i'm a DEALER and because i like to do thing in FREEDOM
- not because i'm poor or i don't have a work,
- i work in security i earn 1K at month (sometime also + in summer)
- i'm also able to earn money in investments\markets (i do also 20k investments that i earn by myself)
- But a person with FREEDOM and spirit of DEAL like me,is it...
- You can't "RULE" it with drm,online,and fraud boxes.
- 18)
- Some publishers has disappoint or stolen money to me,
- i add them in a my personal BLACKLIST (that i write with HAND in a PAPER agenda),
- i will never buy their games in future.
- Just 2 example:
- EA (Electronic arts),Destiny (videogame),Konami\Capcom,
- but the list has reached 12 so there is many...
