it's a simple case of chase, and numbers. you are more likely to win in higher level gibs or limited ones because there are fewer participants. but it does not mean you cannot win a low lvl open giveaway. I've won plenty, just keep at it. And you'll do better as you level.

everyone who says no, is being inaccurate. The thing is, if a giveaway is open to all at lvl 0 you have 1k+ 2k+ entry and only one person wins. Your cance of winning a 1k entry giveaway is 0.1% so of course you are not likely to get anything. But someone will, and it might be you. If you're low level and you are frustrated of the general gibs not giving you anything I have two suggestions:
1) try to slowly level up
2) check out giveaways in discussions for better chances, like puzzle giveaways for example.

even smaller chance, as OP stated he only enters for stuff from his wishlist, his wishlist consists mainly of AAA games and premium indies - these are in most cases not games that will get 1-2k entries at lvl 0 GA but 5-9k entries, so his win chances are around 0,0(1)%-0.02% chance to win.

my advice still stands I suppose.
I personally never play AAA games, the ones I have are just a number in a library lol

your advice ofc still stands, I just pointed out that for OP the numbers you mentioned would simply be even 2-10 times lower, so your advice has 2-10 times more power to it ;)

true, winning AAA games is not easy because more people enter those GAs

You'll need to participate in a lot more giveaways than that. The best giveaways can easily have 5k to 10k participants, which mathematically means that participating in 10k such giveaways and you'd win once. But since you've been here, you've participated in under 2.8k giveaways in total. You'll need to be a lot more active than that to win good games.

But yeah, I've won some sweet games myself here, like DiRT4, Lichdom Battlemage and Tyranny amoung other games.

Someone wins it at the least cost while another puts a lot more effort than that of purchasing on the retail site but for nothing. If you really want it, always consider getting it in other way.
