Which is why you only buy games at 90+% off or through game bundles. Unless the developer proves the game is worth the money through all the positive things the community has to say about it.
Chances are good that your backlog is large enough that you can just wait for newer games to be priced reasonably, even if you're buying games at sensible discounts.
Especially for single player games there is no real reason to play a game on release, other than the hype cycle. You might even be better served waiting a while and not be punished by issues that are patched after release.
