Arcanum. I had £30 or something from a present when I was younger and wanted to get the Icewind Dale complete collection, but it was perpetually never in stock on Amazon and I couldn't get it locally. Arcanum was suggested, but I think I'd thought it was about trains or something. Didn't play it until like a decade later.

Nope, I think I was in control. My purchase regrets are mistakes I would have done today. Tempest looked like a cool pirates game with nice sea effects (I love seas in videogames), and Smugglers IV looked like a fun open-ended 2D Elite-like. The Park looked a bit like a game, and Montague's Mount looked like some sort of Vanishing of Ethan Carter. Hard to avoid these traps.

Ah wait, I decyphered Fairfox's thread wrongly (used the wrong code wheel, that one was for monkey island).

So, the "not buying" that I regret ? I passed on Dark Corners of the Earth, not wanting to re-buy it. Passed on ReVolt, the demo cd was fun but I'm not enough in racing games for an instabuy. And passed on the Hegemony 3 launch sale, because I was evaluating whether it's worth buying it when you altready have Total War (still unsure).

But usually I'm just slow to make up my mind. Also slowed by the weight of my backlog.

The original Crash Bandicoot trilogy on Playstation 1 is one that came to mind recently. There were just way too many good games on PS1, and I could only devote so much attention and resources to so many. Though with the recent remake of the trilogy, that's no longer a problem.

Maybe it's weird but I'm trying to not purchase the games with any pre-order bonuses, "already planned" DLCs or season passes (even if these games are interesting for me). I do not like cut-out content, which is released only to promote "greed" of developers.

Let them burn in hell slowly.

Call of Cthulhu: Dark Corners of the Earth.
It came and then, with speed of the lightning and the power of the thunder, it was gone.
It's available on St**m, but i'm voting with my wallet. Voting in purple-DRM-free platform.
So i'm quite sad, that i missed the opportunity.
Yeah, i'm regret.

This forever. I am constantly buying games on release here. This is one I wanted but sadly missed. It came and went so fast I am still confused about the whole process. My understanding is that it was requested to be taken down? Has there been any update on negotiations to get it back on here?

Shantae (GBC)

You can still purchase and redeem Steam codes if you really want the game; might even find GoG keys for it out there.

yeah, like at G2A! :P
