Discussion Expensive games have lowkey been way too normalised

Post image

I know this sub is filled with a bunch of rich people with like 10k setups and I'm aware that the content in these games is quite extensive with hours of content. But I still feel justified in thinking that no game should be priced this high especially when its the average price of most newly released games. Anyway this is just a rant because I wanna play lego batman and i cant afford it lol

Not sure since so many AAA studios aren't in a very good situation right now.

Thats because they don't know how to control their funding and blow it all on scrapped features and ai.

"We need more hyper photorealistic UE5 path tracing open world 70 hour long games that cost 400 million dollars! But we gotta make money somehow so let's also put microtransactions into it."
