I'm the guy who is consistently picking up old games that he's always wanted when they go on a steam sale years later for single digits. So I'm constantly three or four (or more years) behind. And I don't really mind because I'm always a single player who doesn't enjoy any form of online multiplayer.

So do I care that I only last month picked up EU4 and a bunch of DLC for cheap, not one bit. Same for Civ 6.

I'll happily chug away at my old games that no one cares about anymore.
