Have Bundles Made You Cheap?

Ask elbows.

yes.

I'm the same although my threshold is a little higher and I don't currently play games on anything but PC. It's not just bundles, but sales that have spoiled me. I don't like to spend more than £5 which is about $8 US on a game.

I spent years paying full whack, i will not be feeling guilty at all :)

Depends if the game is worth it or not i would spend more money on it (of course only if it's on a sale)

Hasn't affected me that much to be honest. I'm still buying a lot of PC games at full price (South Park, Lego games, SRIV, XCOM, Blackguards, Rogue Legacy) because I want to play them now. I'll probably pick up Banished, Van Helsing 2, Wolfenstein and Goat Simulator too before any real price drop/sales. If I really want to play a game I'm happy to pay for it.

With games that were borderline before bundles I'd wait until deep discounts. Now it's bundles and deep discounts. The biggest effect for me is that I generally know when a lot of games are about to be bundled, so I might avoid a deep discount once in a while.

Yes, but also made me leave piracy... so is actually a good thing, now I prefer to wait for the price to drop instead of not buying the games at all.

I've always been cheap

I typically waited for a 75% off sale before the bundles started, so it didn't make me cheap, although it has made it worse. I don't typically buy indie games now as I know with enough patience, I'll get it for much cheaper in a bundle.

It depends on the games, bundles have opened me up to games I would have never played before and other games that I didn't think that I would like. I still will pay full price for games if I really want them.

I've never had enough money to be anything but cheap =p Before humble bundle I had less than 10 games on my steam account.

Yep same here. Especially games I have paid in full ended up in bundle, that gave me a bad feeling. Sticking to bundles only from now on. :)

Yes. Right now there is a sale on PSN for a bunch of games that are $1 each (some pretty good ones too) and right now all i can think of is "That $1 can buy a bundle instead. Should i wait?"

Bundles have made me stingy.

It made me buy legit games. I have acquired more than 300 games in a year.

Nothing changed for me, I just used to wait until I found games I wanted in bargain bins. =D

Occasionally though, if I really want something, I will still pay full price. I have been playing video games for so long there isn't much coming out these days that I feel I got to have right away.

I've always been "cheap", so bundles just help me stay that way. ;)

I have dropped out of downloading games and worse, sharing dozens of them everyday and I started buying them.

The first game I bought in my entire life was Sanitarium, from GOG. And I only did because I wanted to play it but the game was so old it didn't run on my computer. GOG's version did.

From there I knew that there was some kind of good thing about it. Something positive about buying games. I didn't only gave money to GOG. They also gave me a working version of an old game I wanted to play.

Then I got into Steam and fucking look at my profile.

You may say I'm a cheap bastard, it is true that I don't like to pay a lot for games, but I do like and prefer to pay for them. I never, EVER pirated another game in my life.

So call me cheap anytime, and I'll take it as a compliment.

They've made me add Woodcutter Simulator to my library, so they've punished my cheapness.

No. Having no money has made me cheap.

Bundles have not changed my thinking in the least. I simply don't buy bundles.

Not having any money to spend on games, however, has had a tremendous impact on my thinking. When you have no money to buy new games off the shelf, you're forced to wait until the "gold version" of those games can be had for less than $10. After a few years of that, you no longer feel compelled to buy something just because it's shiny and new. You know you'll get it, eventually or find something even better.

no, not cheap, but more economic i would say

nope, i was cheap before bundles. hell, i was a pirate before TF2 went F2P.
and i'm still thinking that $60 for a game is too damn much, i'm fine with $40 though (sadly, pricing on this region of the world is just retarded)

I have always been pretty cheap (not just with video games), so bundles haven't really changed my thinking (I don't even buy most bundles). I will say that I have different expectations for different formats of a game. I typically don't buy a ps3 or 3ds game until it is below $20, and will usually not buy a PC game until it is around $5.
