The Talos Principle did very well, and I didn’t see all the wailing, whining and gnashing of teeth about the price point.

Yeah, no. Stealing is stealing, no matter how you try to rationalize it.
Yeah, guy invest his entire profit from Braid into another labor of love and he should just get over the assweasels who steal it.
This. He can’t play when he’s stone cold sober, he’s rarely sober, and he doesn’t give a shit about turning himself into even a mediocre QB. That said, I can’t wait for him to hook up with Jerry.
Didn’t want to get drafted by the dumpster fire in Philly, so he got drafted by the dumpster fire in NY.
Fuck that hayseed.
There are /very/ few games with budgets of ‘hundreds of millions’. Very few. And, in point of fact, this game IS at a lower price point than those games. It’s 33 percent less than a AAA title. But beyond that, the idiocy is valuing the game purely by the bloated budget as opposed to the quality of the game. A 100…
Which AAA game? Do you know how much The Witness cost to produce. From what I’ve heard, it was in the neighborhood of 6-8 million dollars. Is that chump change to you? And do you not understand the idiocy of deciding a game’s worth by the sheer amount of dollars spent during it’s development?
Essentially, every comment you’ve made in this thread, but for a specific example, you’re asinine assertion that because a game is ‘indie’ and doesn’t have a ‘hollywood’ level budget, it’s inherently worth less, and the notion that someone daring to charge two thirds of the price of a AAA game is lazy and greedy.
You’re a walking, talking stereotype all on your own. No help needed.
So you’ve played it then. All the way through.
Yeah, I tell you, CoD 8 really pushed the limit of innovation and creativity.
That doesn’t explain why it should be denigrated. Many many games (including ones from major publishers) are created without hollywood-level budgets. And this game is NOT, despite all the waiting and gnashing of teeth, not priced the same as new release AAA titles. The Talos Principle cost exactly the same (still does…
You’re an idiot. Really, that’s all I can say.
A) AAA games these days go for $60. And B) what exactly denigrates the ‘indie’ part of this game?
It’s actually 600+
Forgot to add ‘the benefit of the doubt’.
Appointed DA would have been cool though.
I’m not giving a guy who sent sexually suggestive text messages to a domestic abuse victim, no.
Well, we’ve already seen that cops are VERY unlikely to face any consequences for murder.
