I was wondering if 30 bucks is a fair price for this game. I know that the port is very much bare bones and that Rockstar cheaped out on it but right now the game is selling for 40% off and I was wondering if it is worth it for this price or shall I wait more for deeper discounts? Like the summer sale is coming but I doubt the game will be even cheaper then.

30 USD is the lowest price it has been on Steam so far. The summer and winter sales usually have the best prices, so if you wait another six days, you're likely to see a price at least that low; maybe lower.

I would wait.

For what it's worth, I found RDR1 a lot less interesting than RDR2, which is often on sale for half that price.

Yes, I don't think they will discount it even further for the summer sale, maybe there is a small chance for the winter one, but even if they do it 50% off, that's like 5 bucks extra, not a huge amount of money.
