Video Games

Buffet Knight: Decadent Full Course

It's funny that the general narrative around video game prices is they're so expensive nowadays. Yeah, sure — if you're buying a AAA title when it's brand-new, and/or if you're locked into an ecosystem like the Nintendo Switch. On PC, however, almost everything's dirt cheap, especially if you're buying indie titles or waiting for sales and bundles. That's led me into the habit of just buying stuff. I mean, you can't go wrong if a game's only a quid or two, right? Even if you don't like it (or, even more likely, don't get round to playing it), it's pocket change.

Nonetheless, for some reason I decided to play the demo of this rather than just purchase it... and have really enjoyed it, so I'm gonna buy it. And because I've started it (and already sunk an hour-and-a-half into it, and only about finished the content in the demo in that time — it's a very generous trial!), I might just keep going with it — whereas if I'd outright bought it, I'd probably have just added it to my backlog. Funny old world, eh.
