My only point was born from the often excited comments of "hey look with this coupon its 20% off on GMG". My point was that that's nothing special because it may be a 20% coupon, but it's 20% off 60 bucks. There's dozens of sites out there where the game is just around 48 dollars/euros without that marketing trick. See the link I posted earlier. So, 20% off on 60 bucks with a coupon just a marketing mindfuck, like 14,99 instead of just 15,00.
That was all. That was it. But it was blown up.

You just wait. The GMG expired coupon will either be replaced by a new one in a second, OR they'll just ditch the coupon for a short while and the game will simply be 20% off as it is at right about every other site (20% off if you compare it with the 60 dollar pricetag).
Lets wait and see who's right, shall we?
I am trying to understand what your point is here.
The standard prices of games is $60 US.
What's that got to do with the coupon or sale prices on GMG.
You seem to confuse standard regular prices of games with sale prices offered by a 3rd party website.
It's kind of like saying well from now on I will take the Mexican or Russian game prices as standard because for me that is a fair price and every other place is just over price everything so they can mind fuck people into thinking they are buying something on sale with a coupon.
In North America the standard regular price of games is $60US and it's regional equivalent based on currency exchange rate. This is not up to debate.

I'm fairly certain you're supposed to refer to them as "gotcha" questions when people prompt you for facts and you can't back them up.

Lost my train of thought later on into the discussion. My original point was, ffs, that like all other sellers out there (see link in earlier post), GMG normally wouldn't require a fucking coupon code for it to be in the 45-50 dollar price range. They just apply the discount off of the ludicrous 60 bucks. Only when they do this coupon shite, it's suddenly 60 bucks. It's a cheap mindfuck people fall for.
The "cheap mindfuck" is that you can't seem to count but despite that, you were given every opportunity to gracefully admit you were wrong and move on. Instead you decided to plow on with stupid comment after stupid comment in some misguided effort to save face which had the opposite effect. Learn a lesson from this and I think you owe everyone an apology.

The coupon expires in 3 days and has nothing to do with the release of FO4, so you have a few days to work on your next excuse as to why you were actually talking about something else.

Yeah, look at all those games they immediately drop the price on 3 days after release! Oh wait, they raised all the prices again because of their coupon right? LOL

Get out of here with your logic.
We're all stupid for knowing what new games cost. We must be sheep.

What planet do you live on Quinn? The AAA launch price for PC games has been $60 for almost a decade.
Give it up already.
No idea where you buy your games, but that's bullshit to the core.

Um...The lowest price there is discounted from 59.99, if anything you're just disproving your own point.
Of course it's always "discounted". That's just it: it always is. Never in my life have I ever seen it hit as high as Steam's joke of a price. If this is GMG's way of pricing their games, I wouldn't even know the seller. Sellers just conveniently use Steam's ridiculous price as their default to make you think their "discount" is awesome. People fall for it, obviously.
Luckily, they too know they can only pull this shit off in the first week or so. I'll buy this game a few days after release, when it's closer to 35/40 euros. It'll still be 60 on Steam by then, duh.
If you havve ever paid similar to 60 euros for a game,the joke is on you. It's no default.
