I was going to preorder this but instead I threw 5999 pennies into my local wishing well. Much better odds.

Pfft pre-ordering? I tithe video game companies 15% of my income and have named Bethesda the primary beneficiary in my will.

Overbite posted:I hope anthem fails harder and dies on the toilet because publishers shouldn’t feel like they can shove any unfinished game out the door and it will all be forgotten in a year when the game is finally “good” Actually gamers deserve to get scammed. They haven't suffered enough imo.

Onmi posted:How many times have you been scammed so far? One time I got short changed and the guy refused to admit that I gave him a 20 and not a 10 but after 15 minutes of refusing to leave I got the correct change. Ever since then I've been hyper vigilant.

I just got this for free with a ps4 pro at an EB in Aus but yeah it was $15 brand new on its own. E: Actually the ps4 was more expensive without Anthem bundled in so they're essentially paying people to take this game off their hands.

I got this for free with a ps4 about a few weeks ago and today I decided to install it and have a look. Colour me shocked to learn it requires a play station plus subscription to play. No wonder they were giving a discount on play stations with it. I've never deleted something so fast in my life.

You say that like it's normal and fine to have to pay a loving monthly subscription fee to play the game you already paid for.

NeurosisHead posted:If anthem was a game that I played and enjoyed playing I would probably pay $10 for the Krogan skin because I liked Wrex and I like that render well enough. too bad. You aren't even a little bit ashamed to admit that you're so much of a rube that you'd pay $10 for a reskin, in public?

NeurosisHead posted:It's $10 for something I like. Why would I be ashamed to to buy something that I like for an inconsequential amount of money? Because you're getting scammed and in the process encouraging the scammers to build their products around scamming people like you which is why video games suck now.

NeurosisHead posted:So people shouldn't buy things or what? Or only things that they are angry about being forced to buy? I'm having trouble predicting the exact direction of this troll No people should not buy things that are ludicrously overpriced rip offs. When you're paying $10 for a skin it's like paying $10 for a loving tic-tac. Would you defend that purchase? I suppose it's your right to pay $10 for a tic-tac if you really wanted a tic-tac but I wouldn't expect anyone to respect your intelligence after you do it.

NeurosisHead posted:For a thing to be overpriced it would have to have an indexable value. I can index the value of a tic-tac against the cost of a box of tic-tacs, and know that the purchase price of $10 is so far away from market value as to be unreasonable to purchase. In game cosmetics don't have an indexable value, which is part of why they're so profitable. With no actual market determining the value of the pixels, it's a question of "do I want it, do I have the money to spend on it without impacting my finances?" lol nope it's super easy to price. Open up the game files and count the number of skins that did not cost $10. You're getting straight up ripped off no matter how you justify it to yourself.

NeurosisHead posted:So the fundamental argument is that because there are similar things which cost less, anything which costs more than the least expensive common denominator costs too much? You know what. I think maybe you should give this game a try. I think you'd really like it. In fact I'd go so far as to say it's practically tailor made just for you.

This seemed inevitable. I didn't expect to ever Dragon Age 4 get released.

Does anyone here even have it installed? Can they go check if anyone is playing? My assumption is that at any given time at most maybe 10 people are playing.

Video games failing being more fun than video games isn't a part of the future I saw coming and I was a very foresighted child.

ZeeBoi posted:We need to stay with Anthem. Keep playing it. Keep spending money on those microtransactions. They never said they are completely done with this game. They said they are done for the FORESEEABLE future. So, we need to give them a reason to come back. It's awesome that there are honest to god people like that out there that go to conventions and buy "merch" or spend $200 pre-ordering legendary editions of games. I should have gotten into the video game business because they're the perfect consumer. It's like they hate having money and want someone take it from them under flimsiest of pretences. Rip a skin out of a game then sell it to them for $20 and they'll brag about buying it. What other non-essential product that isn't an addictive drug will get people this motivated to buy?
