5 bucks indie games, 10 bucks AAA games.

Like 20 bucks.

and becuase of that we have gacha shit and predatory cash shops.

>AAA games are longer than ever
>comparing them to shrinkflation
reactionary moron.

Games have stagnated because of consoles, as such their prices should remain the same.

I didn't get a raise
I'm not paying more for video games.
increase the price and I will just pirate.

A game should cost $20 per hour of development divided by the number of people who bought it.

>ground beef
>"hamburger meat"
Ok americans, do you ACTUALLY..?

Don't care, gonna pirate it anyway.

>How much should a new game cost?
$40
>How much of a discount would you want before buying?
50%

>I didn't get a raise
lmao get your money up not your funny up brrrrr

And because of that i edit unity based games to have free stuff in the shops.
Also you made a grammatical error in the word "becuase"

red coats be like "mincemeat"

Spelling, not grammatical.

yes

You would prefer us calling it "mince?"

20 bucks feels correct. With digital distribution, marketing, and programing tools everything should be cheaper. AAA needs to be so expensive because they have like a million coders for some reason doing a job a smaller team could do now. 20 as a base feels right because sales and such drop it around 10-15 and more premium goes up to 30-40. Anything else we s greed. Especially because of how often games nickel and dime you for extra profit now.

I don't know how you guys across the pond have been doing +100 for games for so many years now. Even games I really really like don't feel like they're "worth" 100

At this point they'd have to pay me to play their garbage.

Yes, please be careful next time.

There are games I'd feel comfortable buying at $100 and games that I wouldn't pay more than $10 for, but most commonly $40 is about what I'd want to play for "a game" of average quality and length and all that where I didn't have any hype going in

23 dollars for a triple A

>hold on bro gotta grab the hamburger grass

It varies wildly. I spent over $400 just to play Smash Ultimate in 2018. I feel satisfied with that purchase, even though I barely use my Switch for anything else. On the other end, I've been burned multiple times by short, shitty indie games that I only spent like 15 bucks on.

So to answer your questions:
1. If a game is good enough, I'll pay hundreds of dollars for it.

2. If I'm willing to wait for a discount, then I don't really care about the game that much in the first place.

Hey I just watched matpats video too xD. What a coink a drink op.

Oh noes, I have to pay a couple more pennies for luxurious crap
Why didn't we just let trump start a nuclear war bros? ;_;

western games: 0 dollars
japanese games: 40 dollars

>ground meat
>luxurious
What absolute 3rd world shithole you from, bro?

>a package of hamburger meat
... does this person mean "ground-beef"?

ground meat is the cheapest kind of meat
not exactly a luxury item

$30 and i'll buy a dlc or two for a total of $60
releasing at $70 + dlc can lick my nuts

New game $40 -50% discount at least.

I noticed.
You can swap words "hamburger" and "american" in most causes and the meaning of the message will remain the same.
Just like you can swap words "love" and "penis" in pop songs.

>you don't understand, I NEED burgers
mutt moment

Most of them aren’t longer, what are you on?

If I'm not getting physical media that lets me reinstall the game on any system forever, I'm not paying more than $20, and I will wait for a 75% off steam sale before I buy it. Until that happens, I pirate the game or simply continue playing older games in my backlog.

>just accept living like a soviet except without the social amenities they had access to

no

Ground beef is used in countless soups, sauces, casseroles, and other dishes. It's an important staple.

Video games have been $60-$70 since the nes. Because of inflation they have steadily Become cheaper

If prices go up, shouldn't the company's earnings go up too and they should be able afford to pay employees more?

i am simple guy. Can i pirate it? if yes, do so. If not, then ask myself, is the game really that good? if yes, buy. if not, wait for a sale and beg on Yea Forums until some rich fag gifts it. its really odd when that happens, but it do happens.

lmao

>ground meat is the cheapest kind of meat
Ground meat is any meat that's been ground and thus it's not a "kind" of meat at all. You can make burgers out of basically anything with the right seasoning.

prices go up because every company needs a HR gestapo to make sure no man is being manly at the office

>How much should a new game cost?
whatever they feel like pricing it
>How much of a discount would you want before buying?
80% or more, never paying more than €15 for a game

Given engines, middleware, reduced costs of digital distribution compared to physical making it cheaper I'd say $20-$25 for AAA games.

Also no "services" like paid online/cloud services like xbox games pass.

>Infaltion
GFTO Dobson you haven’t been relevant even as a lolcow for half a decade now

Take the tech startup pill and gift all your friends games like I did

OH NO NO NO LOOK AT THIS DUDE

They deserve it. "Men" who still support the forcing everyone to either suck up to welfare bureaucrats/be employed paradigm deserve EVERYTHING they get from HR bureaucrats.

Same goes for whites too. No sympathy whatsoever.

No more than 50EUR, that's already quite spicy and not something I'd pay for most titles out there. There are exceptions and probably even fewer that I'd pay 60EUR for but those are very few and far between. Something like 20-30EUR is more like what I'd be willing to spend on most new games if they're not absolutely top-tier amazing and suited perfectly to my tastes.

oh shit
they're on sale
