The Outer Worlds 2 Is Microsoft's First Confirmed $80 Game

It's kinda mid, id suggest Tainted Grail if ya want a Bethesda like game. Doesn't quite scratch the itch but it's close enough.

Yeah, I don't like it, but mid is fair... And I'll buy #2 anyways if the reviews hold up.
People are free to complain about the price point but it's pretty absurd to think gaming is somehow immune to inflation.

I was probably a bit uncharitable. TBF it is on my backlog of games I intend to play. It's just not a game I would want to pay $80 USD for based on what I've seen review wise.
Yeah the first is absolutely a "get it on sale" game
-
I personally am at a stage where I have a few games I rotate with sometimes something new(er) in between.
I got so much at this point that I am not interested in full-price titles due to "lack" of things to play, I tend to not often stick to 1 anymore as I used to.

Ya'll remember when pirating was massive.
Yeah let's do that again.

that's the game that criticizes capitalism, right.....?
(rhetorical, don't reply to me)
I'll promise not to reply for a nominal fee

I'm pretty sure they meant Outer Wilds, which is one of my top games of all time.
Great game, but wildly different type of game
-
What game was it confused with?NVM, I just realized it was No Man's Sky. Though I seem to recall that the launch of that game was also a shit show. I've heard it got much better as time went on.
Nope, Outer Wilds.

It literally took 30 years for the most expensive games to go up by $10.

No I im in a place where it is legal. I paid $45-60 for high grade in the 1990s in NJ and that’s the same price it is now. The higher grade stuff just got consistently better.
wrote on last edited by [email protected]Crazy how the prices are so varied. Just as good as today in 1985 was $25 an eighth if you knew where to look on the west coast. There already were hybrid and medical experimental strains out for sale.
Fast forward to today and you can settle in on top shelf for anywhere from $5 to $20 an eighth. Anymore than that is crazy expensive.
But of course things that are easy to grow and were illegal before can't really be compared to other products can they?

even if wages increased with inflation and 80 dollar games weren't so distressing, the first outer wilds fucking sucked and I have no hope for the sequel

I don't know. It seems like they're addressing the issues that the first one had. It was too safe and far too full of itself. It should have just been one big planet and a bit less goofy. Seems like the next one is shaping up for that. Also, if there is a game company that I trust right now it's obsidian. I was super disappointed with the ending just being the same slides they used for new Vegas, hopefully we at least get a more satisfying ending.

I am officially done buying games on release. None of these games are worth 80 bucks.

Do you wanna spend 80 dollars on a new game, or wait a year and buy it for 10 dollars when it works and is actually finished?
WHERE CAN I PRE ORDER IT FOR 120 DOLLARS TO PLAY IT 3 DAYS EARLY AND PAY TO BE A PLAYTESTER?
Like i'm not surprised why games are this expensive.

In NJ most of it os because it is NJ which has a higher cost of living across the state (last I checked). Until federal legalization happens everything that is sold here is grown here. That keeps prices high as bonded warehousing space is pricy here.

That's the kicker. Getting games on release now feels like early access. I've been hyped for a few games in day one and there's either server issues, driver issues, crashes, what have you. These things are so rushed they need a year to be finished.
By then you'll know if it flops too, avoid getting caught in the hype.
