It don't matter what the release price is. Everything goes on sale eventually.
I’ve decided amongst this push to $80 games that even $70 is too rich for me. With very few exceptions, the only launch games I will allow myself to buy will be the $40-50 ones. Otherwise I will just wait until the $70+ ones that interest me to get there on their own. If i lose the urge to play them in the meantime, oh well. Money saved.
There are just sooooo many great games out there at much better prices.
I've had a similar response.I was kinda ready to accept the new price but then they started pushing an even higher price so I got an opposite reaction where stars would have to align for me to care about any game over 60 and even 60 is pushing my willingness to pay.
I think the only thing that might get me to go over the $60 line is if a publisher takes a chance on a franchise/concept I’d like to see more of, which these days is rare.
Still too much given BL3 and pre-sequel.
I'd consider it at $40. See you on Black Friday!
To be fair, The Pre-Sequel was made by different studio entirely, but I agree that the Borderlands 3 story was utter crap. It was so bad that I couldn't bear to keep playing, despite how I felt about the gameplay (which I honestly don't remember at this point).
I'm playing through BL3 right now, and the game feel is fantastic. The story isn't great, but after 5 hours, it still hasn't hit a point where it's so off-putting that I'd consider putting the game down. Pre-Sequel's story did really bother me, but even then, the level design and bosses still made it worth seeing.
Conspiracy Theory: All that hubbub about an $80 base price was just to deflect from the fact that most sales are likely going to be funneled to the $100/130 editions..
Guess I'm not a REAL Borderlands fan, since I'm still not going to "make it happen" at this price, and even if I do eventually buy it (and that's an if - I'll carefully read multiple reviews and watch a couple of streams before I decide) it's going to be for max half that. Tough shit, eh Randy?
I haven’t been a real borderlands fan since 2. The gameplay is fun enough, but the dialogue kind of gets cringy after a while.
Is 70 the new normal then? Was all that theater just to make the <80 price tag seem better?
Gearbox needs to REVERT their FUCKING TOS back or I won't play it at $0.00
Uhhh no . Ill wait till it goes on sale for $5 bucks
I'll never buy a borderlands game, quite boring, stale humor. Gun play gets old really fast.
It's curious because I own all the borderlands games, legally, and I never paid for any of them. For some reason they keep giving them away some 18-24 months after release. I only played the first one and it was a little meh.
I'm a borderlands fan, and I will say that the first one is a little meh. The second one is where it's all, although it may feel a little date now. The presequal and 3 are fun but they fell a little lacking
Point I'm trying to make, if 1 felt fun but a little meh, I would recommend playing 2.
