Gamers want to pay $120 for games.

i'd pay way more for games that release in a fully finished and complete state. $300 for a game that is on release as complete as it would be after years of updates seems fair to me.

Pathetic.

It should be a crime for a game company to charge you extra for early access

They would have been happy to pay $70 and blissful to play $50.

How is this shit so fucking hard for people and the publishers and so on to understand. People are willing to pay high prices fro a VERY SMALL subset of games not for all games. People will pay high prices for stuff like Zelda and Resident Evil and Assassins Creed and GTA and FIFA and Madden and Call of Duty and normie racing games like Forza and GT and so on. They will not pay high prices for all games or most games for that matter. Its like a list of maybe a dozen game franchises that people will pay high prices for and nothing else. For example that Blood of Dawnwalker game later this year is going to bomb as it's a new IP charging 70 bucks. You cannot get away with charging a high price unless you are a long running established popular franchise. Even Capcom knows this as they priced Pragmata at 60 bucks.

Boy, wait until you find out about DLCs...

as long as it's not a game with some competitive element i don't see the problem

If the rumors of six skus pans out, the cheapest, base game will be 70, and the rest will be higher.
Pretty sure they'll make the best "value" version at 100.
>>
>>739017884
that's because premium is released 3 days earlier and it's got all the DLCs (i think, that's how it was with the previous ones)
I'm not buying it until it goes to 30$ in like 6 weeks during summer sales.

These are most of the big games this year. The only ones I would pay full price for are Resident Evil 9 (was 80 Euro day 1 on PSN), Pragamta (was 60 Euro day 1 on PSN), GTA6, Tomb Raider Remake, OOT Remake, Onimusha Way of the Sword. Anything else im not that bothered and will just play them when they are cheaper next year.

Not only that, the whole genre is literally sustained in like 3 whole games some tryhards of driving play a lot, every time I've seen gameplay of this game it was the most mindboggingly boring shit I ever saw, there's no high octanes, there's no difficulty, there's no skill requirements, it's just pretty visual effects and graphics.
>>
>>739020551
I'm not, but I do think it's silly to pay extra to play a game just a few days early, it's not even like an MMO or something where a headstart gives you like a big advantage in the player market or something

I do and I wished the industry did push for higher game prices decades ago and we were more accepting of that idea. Look what we have now:
Unfinish games
Day one dlc
Micro transactions
Cosmetic dlc instead of unlockables
Pay to avoid grind
Gacha systeme
Collapse workforce with constant firings
Creation process from the start is return on investment

Glad we kept "$60-70" price tag though tehe. Really avoided a tragedy there.

Its a literal number go up game. There is no game. You can choose your "mon olpy" piece at the start. Sometimes there are events like Harry Potter where you really need your number to go up big but you can only claim your daily rolls, so you buy more rolls.

I know mobile games are usually referred to as "non games" but this is legitimately a non game.

Games like Forza and GT really have a great market. Both coping turbo-normies who will pay $$, because it's still nothing compared to buying a real souped-up Porsche, and simfags who will pay $$, because it's nothing compared to what they already paid for their racing setups.

Not him but i'll give an anecdote here anyway.

Racing games absolutely get played by motorsports enthusiasts that actively race, i say this because my family is full of racers up of varying motorsports and levels of competition (up to international), it is what they fucking FAVOUR and is in many cases the only vidyas they (and their extended social circles) cared about or what makes them interested. And im talking from fucking Rad Racer on the NES to that old F1 game in Win95 where you could custom paint the cars to Colin McRae Rally to shit like MTX VS ATV to Forza (Horizon), even ones that didn't give a shit about any other vidya were perfectly willing to get rigs and expensive pedals and wheels for that ONE racing game, while still splurging on actual cars and funding going to races (both as participant and audience, or just organize them themselves) shit.

Point is, in my experience Motor Autists are MASSIVE Paypigs that WILL splurge for both real motors and fake motors. No offense to /o/fags.
>>
>>739017884
>Steam numbers already declining
It's over, marketer.
>>
>>739023172
That's literally all it takes?
Why are all the big vidya companies spending hundreds of millions on Concordlikes in hopes of endless money, when they could spend a few million dollars and make a slot machine game?

I still can't believe they're not even playing Monopoly. My respect for the average human just dropped another notch.

Something like this happening just makes me think it is all women and old people.
