The Outer Worlds II is TOO Expensive!
14The Outer Worlds 2 is the upcoming sci-fi RPG from Obsidian that is about to be sold for $80. That's freaking insane. The first game was fine. It was okay. I played it, and I don't hate it at least. It was released during times where western RPGs were rather lackluster, and it still is lackluster now. Thank you Clair Obscur. Even Avowed has its fans, but $80? Apparently, this was not set by Obsidian. It was set by Microsoft and Xbox. Either way, don't get me started on that $70 Sonic racing game, SEGA. Jeez, games are expensive these days.
"Games have been that price in the UK for over a decade."
Sucks to be you, Brits, but that's still not okay.
"Americans have had everything insanely cheap."
Ah yes, the British is lecturing the Americans how underprivileged they are. Bro, you can justify the price however you like. These prices are way too insane for any American gamer to buy, let alone the rest of the people around the world.
"Why are people mad about this price increase when there's been many prices increases years ago too?"
People have been mad about those price increases too. To suggest that people haven't been mad about price increases is a denial of reality.
"A game that gives hundreds of hours of entertainment is worth $80."
Yeah, you are assuming that The Outer Worlds II is hundreds of hours. I'm guessing that it'll be like 40 hours at most just like the first game. I can't wait to be proven wrong on that, Obsidian, but your pedigree has been rather questionable as of late.
"Naming absolute failures of games does not equate to most games."
Nice of you to bring up most games because most games are not worth $80 either.
