Oh gee! I wonder why is this happening?!

I guess we'll never know!

Anyway, let's release another copy-paste game at 90€/$ with 50€/$ in dlcs and another collector edition with some plastic toy for 300!

    A collectors edition that doesn’t include the game either.

    But it does have a moldy nylon bag!

    And all the advertising will show the game next to a canvas bag.

    Someone downvoted because they don't want to remember Bethesda's shenanigans?

    Ah nah that's just because I make it my mission to piss off tankies. You'll see downvotes on all kinds of comments like "Human Rights should be upheld", "Cake is always welcome", or "Google shouldn't own an advertisement monopoly" not because they oppose the message but because they regularly go through my comment history. (And tankies also do kind of oppose those messages sometimes).

    90€ + 50€ • DLC? Isn't that too little for the poor record-profit industry titans with budgets in the billions and nonsensical brand loyalty all over the world?

  • We need to keep the games affordable so they can spend some money in the microtransaction hell that is our store and that is basically mandatory if you want to keep up the pace with the other players in the pvp mode of the game (the only one available, because we removed local modes since we believe that playing with friends doesn't make you want to spend on lootboxes is not as fun as playing with randos

    originally i was going to get the first swsh in the generation plus a switch at the time, no thank you, based on how the game came out and what the company, gamefreak said will happen to the future games. 300-400$ switch, +60+15 dlc+ nintendo related services, and storage.(im underestimating some of the costs)

    Collectors editions don’t even include physical items anymore. At least you got something cool to keep. Now it’s some worthless download you get once and never again.

    I still have those cheap night vision goggles from one of the Call of Duty editions. They’re subpar quality but still pretty cool.

    This criticism is genuinely like 10-13 years out of date, gramps.

    And yet here we are, with games more expensive than 10 years ago and people spending less than 10 years ago. Seems strange, right?

    At least 10 years ago there were some interesting AAA games, even with those problems. Now they they charge that shit for remasters and rehashes.

    Hasn't been a non indie game I was excited about in years.
