I don’t think many people are expecting a GTA or BG3 amount of content. Yea those are outliers. The problem arises when your game is the same or greater in price as those. Your game better be one hell of a unique experience if you expect people to be satisfied with that price point.
That’s recency bias. The PS3/360 era had lots of variation on price for games.
It doesn’t need to be based on playtime. It’s honestly weird to base price exclusively on that. Quality isn’t easy to define for video games but if you explicitly say your game is lesser than a counterpart… maybe it’s not worth as much.
So it’s priced accordingly right? Right?
I don’t understand how having things and being well off means a person has nothing to lose. Have none of y’all seen Trading Places? People value different things.
I’d be curious to know if the whistleblowers of the last 25 years or so match this description of the “most ethical person”. I doubt it.
I can agree more with this statement.
And I’m saying it’s a point based on no evidence. History is riddled with people making sacrifices for the greater good. It’s also riddled with the people that own things doing nothing. Financial comfort does not increase the likelihood that someone will rock the boat and become a whistleblower. There is no factual basis for that statement.
I’m still stuck on why you think someone with money has more ethics. Do you think someone financially stable is more prone to being altruistic? Being a whistleblower is about doing something beyond yourself. What if the person with a fully paid off house and savings has family? Are they still going to make the same decisions? How did that person obtain wealth?
I don’t disagree with your list but I very much disagree with your conclusion. Honor and altruism do not correlate with owning property and having money.
What do ethics have to do with saving money and owning property? Do poor people not have ethics?
Separating art from the artist is hard. Painting broad strokes over a movie that has contributions from possibly hundreds of people is not hard. How about a little more effort than just copy pasting?
Aww yea. It feels like they waited later than usual to drop it this year.
It’s like 7 years old now. Let it go Bungie, it’s time to move on.
Dwayne Dibley’s first appearance is the most memorable for me.
High pitched voice “I’m disabled”
Man, I thought my statement was so ridiculous that no one could take it seriously. My bad.
I don’t quite understand your response but maybe my sarcasm wasn’t understood? Otherwise I’m at a loss.
Nepotism is fine because other people do it.
The price point most definitely isn’t static. Before we get into actual price points there’s DLC and whether or not that’s free or how it’s priced. But for actual games there’s an $80 price point, a $70 one, and a $60 one if you want to cherry pick and only discuss “console” games. There’s still plenty of games releasing at $40 or even $20 and those are *also released on consoles but likely don’t get physical releases. Don’t act like these companies don’t have leeway to set their own prices for what they produce.
