![]() ![]() ![]() That does not, however, invalidate my argument nor the price-related data I present.Ĥ0-50 used to be old AAA standard prices, what you say is a new recent fad of the last 1-2 years, especially now because ps5 games are so expensive, and they taken over on steam, adding all sorts of extra's (usually skins or soundtrack) as deluxe version, as a poor excuse to increase the price even further with another 20, heck you can even go say well there are some games that are 100.

You might need to do the same with Colossal Cave. Maybe we'll buy it in a year or two or three from now. We'd like to play that co-op (so that means getting two copies) but even with the last Winter Sale, we thought it was too expensive for us to get so we decided we'd wait. My wife and I have been waiting with a newer game called Grounded. Eventually everything goes on sale on Steam, so you might need to be patient and wait a while. You obviously disagree with that assessment, and that's fine. ![]() Most AAA games I've seen are a good $80 (for the base game if you want the versions that include season passes or extra launch-related DLC, you'll pay a lot more), so I'd say $40 is fair. Plus, this game is available for VR, in addition to normal gaming setups and is for multiple platforms.Īlso, they're not charging AAA prices here. They had to make all the models, visuals, interactions, and so on from scratch. This isn't some slapped together mess where someone haphazardly applies new textures to existing outdated 3D models, this is essentially a new game. If we adjusted for inflation, $60 in 1987 would be equivalent to $154.47 in 2023. I remember buying Sierra Online games for about $60 in 1987, so the price of $40 isn't too bad 36 years later in 2023. That does not, however, invalidate my argument nor the price-related data I present.
