@aeva @memoriesin8bit I know right? And the horror of book series! They have like 20 parts! Ahhh!
In all seriousness, I think this movement comes from the fact we are all actually kinda broke as gamers in a world with more games then ever before, and staring at new releases as a tax for "keeping up with friends playing the new things". A lot of social pressure outside is making it seem we are priced out. When in fact games even at 80 are way cheaper. But number got big looking, you know?
@memoriesin8bit @aeva If you need to play all three parts. Assassins creed does similar with their meta stories, but each section is also a full, stand alone gameplay with dozens of hours of entertainment, and the optional dlc extra quests for each make them about the same cost. With the quality of cutscenes and world design behind ff7 I honestly see no way how they could have priced it differently.
@memoriesin8bit Contrary to most loud internet, I don't consider 80 a scam. I think if well crafted, a lot of those are actually well worth the price. The issue for me is my income does not match the price point. But that doesn't make a Ferrari, for example, a scam.
The scam part comes in quality of game, in my opinion. A 3 dollar game can be equally a scam, if it won't deliver a playable/fun experience.
The difference is that buying a Ferrari and finding no engine inside hurts a lot more.
