I’m happy to pay it if the game is worth $70, but with games releasing in such a buggy state, they’re not worth anywhere close to that. I don’t care about FUD and am hurting for games to play, so the value is a given game to me is much lower.
So I wait until they’re solid, and they’re usually much cheaper by then. I’d like to pay Cities: Skylines 2, but the performance and content aren’t there. That’s a game I’d totally pay launch price for, but the quality isn’t there.
I have limited gaming time, so I’m not going to spend it playing new releases with tons of bugs. I paid for new releases as a kid because games actually launched in a finished state. Games these days don’t, so I don’t buy them.
70$ games don’t even exist in my eyes. Anyone who asks 70+, will ask for more right away. It’s just greed
