Why does a bundle game loses value? Sure, while the bundle is up,it's worth the price of the bundle, but even after the bundle ends, people are like "Oh no that's bundled it sucks". Why is that?

If this is about CV: Please use the forum search, this has been discussed multiple times.

If this is about trade value: use common sense. once something was available at a very cheap price, people no longer value it at full price. even if a non-bundled game had a 75% discount, most traders will assume the discounted price as trade value, unless the last discount was over a year ago.

I don't think he means any of these. He means the game loses its "value".
After bundle people think game sucks because it's bundled. People are stupid.

As for CV, I just saw someone complaining about a giveaway of a bundled game, having nothing to do with their CV...

If bundle games would (re)get normal CV, we all would buy 100 bundles and then give them away month later. Or year later. Or century later.

What's the bundle with dealed games?

If you make GAs just for the sake of CV, then you are doing it wrong!

Because on the internet 14 and 16 year old do the currencies.

After bundle ends, people don't say "Oh no that's bundled it sucks", instead they say "Oh no that's cheap".

Its pretty simple really, some users of SG only make giveaways to further help their own interest (ie. enter higher CV giveaways). So because the sole purpose of those people making a giveaway is to increase their CV, bundles become the easiest and most cost effective way to do so. Even if we wait say 5 months after the bundle is over it doesn't mean that those people didn't buy 10 copies of a bundle (that could equate to about 5 games and a lot of CV) and are just waiting to dump those keys on SG.

IMO seeing all of the GA set to $1000 CV is WHY we have this issue. THink about it, this is a gifting site, should it matter that much if they are only gifting the keys to get CV? They are still having GA.
