While Take-Two is riding high on their announcement that a GTA 6 trailer is coming, its CEO has some…interesting ideas on how much video games could cost, part of a contingent of executives that believe games are underpriced, given their cost, length or some combination of the two.

Theoretically he can go fuck himself. All that is going to do is make games drag out mindless crap with no actual value entertainment-wise.

The most successful games are already like that, and I hate it. Give me a good story in a compact experience (luckily, still many examples for that).

First thing that comes to mind for me is Far Cry 6, where there is a few missions you have to find certain things without the aid of any quest markers.

Imagine a game like that with absolutely no markers and they take your map as well. At best you'd spend 3 times as long trying to finish the same game, and now they think they can charge you 3 times as much? Fuck that noise.
