It continues to have strong player numbers in general, which is probably why it never goes on a decent sale. Best I’ve seen is 25% off launch price. My patient gamer ass is not paying that for a years old game, no matter how good it is.
I’m in the same boat as the parent poster, with the added wrinkle that I won’t pay $90 (CAD, with taxes) for any game. I have too many great unplayed games (mostly from bundles), so I can’t justify spending that much on a single game. Especially with cost of living rising so much in the last few years.
But BG3 will still be good in 5 years when I can get it for $20-30. I’m in no rush.

So, you don’t pay full price on launch because you better wait, but then the discount is not enough because it’s too old, right?
Some games never get a big sale, also years old now is not the same difference as it were when hardware evolved way faster
