They also Doubled game price on Uk store just days after the remaster trailer. Previously it was £15.99 and now it’s £34.99. So they are definitely milking for cash.
Paired with allowing people who own the original to upgrade for $10 (and I’m assuming something similar in the UK) when they’re charging $50 for the remaster if you don’t have the original, that makes sense. They’re just closing a loophole.
I’d much rather they double the existing game’s price than for them to charge $25-$30 for the upgrade or to even just not have one outright.
It sucks for anyone who’d been planning to play the original and who just hadn’t bought it yet, but used prices for discs should still be low, so only the subset of those people who have disc-less machines are really impacted.
RDR2 was a beautiful game and one of the few that gave me a serious emotional response at the end. But it was a bit long winded along the way, so I’m OK with this.
In recent years I’ve had mixed performance from Supermassive titles. The Quarry didn’t run well. The Devil In Me ran very well. I haven’t played the new companion game they made to Dead by Daylight, but the demo ran perfectly.
Thanks to Sony the prices for videogame hardware and software keeps getting up. Something that never happened before in the history of videogames. At least not by a large main console competitor in the gaming market.
Why not? are you expecting a fully game on release? When have they ever put out something that wasn’t fixed by modders?
Better yet, I’d like to see them put out more of a platform than a game with maybe a built in missions they can call “Cannon”, sort of like the ARMA series does. Let the people build it, they have been anyway.
Are you telling me that it is excusable for a company engaging over 400 people over many many years in a production of a videogame to not playtest their game and make players pay for testing it?
Dude, Early Access is okay if you are an indie games company with limited resources, NOT an AAA producer with infinite budget.
Fextralife also mentions they host the most widely used DA:I wiki, they went through the effort of preserving the original Dragon Age forum threads from the Bioware forums prior to EA’s closure of them. They have a long history of being one of the central hosts of the largest community of Dragon Age enthusiasts, and longtime proponents of the Dragon Age series overall. When they expressed cautious optimism after the reveal trailer, their press contacts at EA went silent and they were not selected for an advance review code due to the risk of them being critical or not giving a high enough score to the game and dragging down the initial metacritic score.
Either way, if the company is worried about the perceived quality of the game, they wouldn’t have cherry picked favorable reviewers. It looks bad.
