Main reason why I like to buy games on initial release price, particularly for indie games, is so my purchase supports a developer I'd like to see more of.
While they may benefit from royalties related to Humble Sales, I think paying full $20 for something like Steamworld Dig 2 is absolutely reasonable.
I try to take in account the actual work going into these games, which is also why I follow developer editorials and interviews.
Also in the case of DOOM, not only did I really want a quality FPS on my Switch, I also want to see Bethesda bring more games to the Switch. They aint gonna be encouraged by folks purchasing the game at half price months later.
And on top of all this....when it comes to "why buy doom or skyrim on switch when you can have it on blah blah"
All I got is a switch, and I aint forking over another several hundred dollars + online fees so I can play certain games on that system.
