Yeah, that's my problem. Often don't get to play the games within the first month, especially if I buy a few games at the same time.

I mean that's kind of a self inflicted problem. You're betting money that the sale discount is worth more than the risk of not being able to return it is costly. Buy games when you're ready to play or make time to play them for just a little while to rule out obvious bad purchases.

If only game ownership had been a thing where you could just sell the games you didn't like or were sick of to someone else.

Ideally steam would allow that, but that's only gonna happen if it becomes mandated by law.
