Activision’s business model ,they are the publisher and set prices .
It’s the whole “better to ask for forgiveness than ask for permission” bs. Companies always trying to see what they can get away with.
Dude, with that price im not sure thay know how to play any other tune.
As an outsider, I’ve seen Bungie “apologize” and say that they’re “listening” at least four times since the game came out for various different aspects of the game (engrams, anyone?). To me this is them apologizing for the current controversy, not the game as a whole, as they’ve yet to prove that they’re willing to…
It’s made by the same developer, Intelligent Systems - a turn based strategy game on grid based maps, exactly as Fire Emblem. The units in AW are part of your army and are expendable as new ones can be built unlike in FE where they level up and carry over from map to map. Of course in AW you can also have what’s…
That’s what I’m saying. How does this fix the issue? Is everyone okay now because they took a few bucks off the top? Isn’t the DLC still $40 plus $20 now bringing the game total to $160 for the game plus all DLC? For a shitty shell of a game with not a whisper of a plot?
It’s still scummy and underhanded. Do the math and you’ll realize all they’ve done is knock $10 off getting the Collector’s edition.
They knew. It’s how they make $$.
Well when you take into consideration the game’s budget and how amazing it was supposed to be Destiny was a complete flop. Gotta make that money back somehow.
“The Taken King Collector’s Edition Digital Content consists of: (3) Class Specific Emotes, (3) Armor Shaders, and (3) Exotic Class Items with XP Bonuses.”
Oh, We’re sorry. Here, let’s fix it but giving you what you ‘want’ by waaaay overcharging you for a couple of emotes, colors, and items. Remember when $20 would net…
Or, and I know this is crazy, Bungie and Activision could not make you buy a separate product from the as yet unreleased $40 expansion to access content within that $40 expansion.
Getting into a Beta is one thing. This is them saying “we’ve all this content, it’s $40, but lets take this mission out of that and stick…
Whether you find the game enjoyable or not, how can anyone continue to support a game who’s publisher continues to fleece them every chance they get. I played Destiny for a bout a week when it came out; wasn’t my style so I haven’t played it again. But everytime I read an article about how Acti is screwing over…
Hahahahahaha.
This is an insult to the sanctity of Videogame Marriage!
So you get special powers for being gay? Seems legit.
I’d agree that Sony had a lot of WOW factor... but that’s all they had. A day after and even the most devoted Sony fan would admit they did little more than throw up a big smoke cloud to hide the fact that their offerings in 2015 come down to some (timed) exclusive DLC... FFVII hasn’t even started devalopment yet, the…
Refreshingly good and honest of you to point out that much of Sony’s thunder was mostly flash. The Last Guardian was a game we were wondering if still EXISTED prior to E3, Shenmue 3 is a game Sony believes in SO STRONGLY they won’t even fund it 100%, and Final Fantasy 7 is only a timed exclusive. All of Sony’s show…
If people were somehow confidence that Halo 5 and Gears 4 were in the pipe but not Uncharted 4, they were, or still are, delusional.
Because it is explicitly the reason third-party games aren't on Nintendo platforms? Because that lack of third-party games hurts sales, since every gamer deciding what console to buy has to consider that they won't be able to play most of the big games on a Nintendo platform? Because that, in turn, discourages…
