Holy shit, I got Baldur's Gate 3 recently on sale for less than this lazy remaster of a 19 year old game.

Gamers are lapping this shit up too. What happened to the rage people had for the Switch 2 being expensive?

agony-shivering lmao $50 US for a texture/model update is now being called high calibre and generous lmao gamers

yea it's crazy, people see not $80 USD and go "wow, this is so great, they're so generous"

idk if it's that im too indie pilled but if a game is more than like $20 i usually wait for it to go on sale or pirate it

One of the benefits of growing up with the same Pentium I well into the era of Pentium IVs is I learned to rummage through bargain bins for old software and play the same games for years on end. I am not paying eighty fucking dollars for a video game I know will be $10 in less than five years. I probably don't even want to play Oblivion because I haven't even played all the other RPGs I own.
