80 dollar games are now the normAre you ok with that?
>>741802238that's fine, but other games have to change. there's no way that the same basketball games that get shat out every fucking year should cost the same as gta 6. (not that I play sports games, those are for fags)
i'm ok. no stores sell at maximum price anyway and there's sales all the time. like literally every week there's sale. sometimes multiple times a week. it's fucking insane if you ask me. what's even the point of having price when everything is supposedly on sale all the time?
>>741802238I wait for sales unless it's something I really want to play day-1 (which isn't often) so it doesn't change anything for me really.
Of course not. The only people defending this are brown teenagers who never played games in the 2000's. They accept this because they don't know any different.
>>741802854Yea big ps2 games could be 65-70€ if you paid full new price. Which was probably like 100 usd at the time. Great that prices have gone down due to inflation.
>>741802238>GTA VI being 80 dollars mean that every other AAA game will sell at 80 dollarsLet them try, they will drop the price in months after they realise not every game can be sold at that price, Microsoft understood that.
Ad. Buy it
>>741804654Yeah bro biggest hyped game won't sell ath that price lmao
$60 games in the 2000s are $80 with inflationStop crying poorfag
>>741804809Read the comment again, you dingus
>>741804809GTA VI will sell even if if they were asking 200 dollars for it. People won't pay 100 dollars for COD though, or Battlefield, or any other slop.
>>741802238I don’t buy games if they go past $60 and even then can’t recall last time I bought a full price game.
>>741804962Except they don’t even have to print discs anymore. >>741805095
>>741802238They can charge that, it's fucking GTA. Haters and contrarian can deny it but nobody comes even close to the open world of Rockstar and the insane amount of detail in it. Worse thing is when games like Avowed want $70 from you lol
on my 20 year old steam account with almost 600 games this is the most expensive game i've ever boughtno, i will never buy a full priced game on steam
I didn't buy them at 70 anyway or 60. They can keep raising it all they like. I'll wait for a sale.
>>741802238yes because it will have BBC NTR and sissyhypnobased leaf and jeet devs
>>741805281>nobody comes even close to the open world of Rockstar and the insane amount of detail in it.LMFAO you can't even go into ninety nine percent of the buildings, their shit is low effort slop.
>>741802238me not buying them is also the norm
One hundred dollar games*Ain't nobody gonna be buying the poorfag version, they'll get shamed to death.
>>741802238Are they? I still never pay more than 20 bucks for a game.
>>741802238I haven't paid full price for a AAA game in yearsthe only reason to do so is because you HAVE to play [new thing] RIGHT FUCKING NOWliterally a (You) problem
yeah because i cant even remember the last game i wanted bad enough to buy on release. when i buy it i'll probably get it for like 10 bucks and still might not play it until i feel like it
>>741802238I'm surprised it was this quick. The jump from $60 to $70 at least took about 15 years before it became the norm. it's been what, 5 years since then and we're already at 80? fuck that.
What do i care? I'm not buying any games.
>>741802238the vast majority of people are not
>>741805534>I haven't paid full price for a AAA game in yearsI haven't paid full price for any game in years. The last one was probably GTA 5. One of my younger brothers bought the Ultimate Special Collectors Editions of RDR2 and somehow it got transferred to my PS5 when I bough it so I never even paid for that. But I will for GTA 6. I have more money than I need.
>>741805095For CoD in particular they will and do, because it has no competition that is similar enough. And very young zoomers play free shit like fortnite anyway
>>741802238Compare a game that took 3 years to make and put it next to GTA6. If you think they both should cost $70 you're kinda stupid.
>>741802238no and I won't support it
I still haven't even paid $70 for a game.
>>741802238Should have been 100 dollars, you pigs are fortunate they're not selling a disk to keep the price down
>>741802238I don't mind paying for quality
>>741805095I would pay a hundred for Call of Duty, they're very well made games.
The substandard edition is a trap for poors they will end up paying $180 within a year just on empty boxes
>>741808460You can't be serious
Me not paying for games is the norm. Are you okay with that?
>>741802238>pays $20 for Silksong>entire AAA industry is still shitting bricks a year later
>>741802238The ones i like aren't
>>741808616The DLC would push it up to $150 but that's my final offer, past that point it's too rich for my blood.
>>741802238gta is not the norm
>>741802238>$130I hate it, and I hate do it, but its gta 6. Which is probably the same mind set people have about Buying it.
>>741802238I'd pay $160 for a good game. I wouldnt play GTA, military shooters, or sportslop if they cut me a check for $160.
It's really $100 for the full version
>>741808925>I hate do it>its gta 6>mind set>about Buying itHoly moly
>>741809172Was that hard to understand or something?
This is my corporation-dick-in-my-ass take but if GTA VI and GTA VI SPECIFICALLY is 80 bucks, I personally can take that on the chin. I don't LIKE it, I'd rather it be 60$ like in the olden days (actually if I could choose I'd have it be free but whatever) but it's gonna be a big game. I still play 4 and 5 to this day so I know I'm gonna get my money's worth. Still bullshit though.
>>741809256Now, I just want ESL niggers like you to go away
80 dollar games are much cheaper than they were decades ago adjusted for inflation. It's one of the only things that have become cheaper as time went on
>>741809393Can you explain what was "esl" about that?
>>741802238It will cost me nothing.I shan't be playing.Going to have Denuvo anyway.
>>741809441There is also 200x more games and maybe only like 10x more demand.
N64 games were more expensive, even needing mandatory add ons like ram pack and controller paks.
>>741802238It's a $100 game, not an $80 game, since the $80 doesn't get you everything.
>>741809441Inflation is a meme when salaries are stuck.Also if you're talking about cartridges, 80% of the money went to the ROM mask manufacturers.
>>741802238Nope, won’t be buying.
>>741809942It works on the cattle, they keep positing it as $80 and arguing about other stuff rather than the $100 price.
>>741809797I keep fucking forgetting that. Games werent cheap, $60 was around the norm.
>>741802238Vidya staying 60$ as long as it did was surprising. Almost everything is starting to cost double what it did less than 10 years ago. 80$ feels like a mercy, but it also shows how wide their profit margins have been
>>741802238look up inflation indexes
>>741802238If they're good yeah, wouldn't pay it for yearly ubisoft/activision slop.
I never really accepted $60. I'm just waiting for it to all fall at this point.
>>741802238nigger, every game that tried before GTA6 got shat on, every game that will try after will get shit on. GTA6 is the exception and every retard here and executive out there will learn this sooner or later
