Boycotting Portable games starting at $50 and I refuse t pay full $40 for a game that is mostly text, uses 1st person to mask the fact the rooms are simple boxes, and numerous other short cuts that prove to me it is not worth that much. It truly is a fun and inventive game.....just not worth that price. I will run and get it immediately once it hits 20, maaaaaaayybe at 30. I am doing the same thing with Smart As, drop the price and they are as good as mine. |
That makes sense, but can't really compare those cases. You should also look who the publisher is.
I didn't buy Smart As because is overpriced by SONY (they could easily drop the price and nothing changes for them).
But AKSYS is a small company with a much narrower audience and need to charge those prices. They take real risks with every title they localize and we have to support them in order to keep getting unique Japanese games. Spike-Chunsoft isn't exactly big either. Also, I don't think that games with lots of text like Virtue's Last Reward are so easy to localize...
For $34.99, I think is worth it. Maybe not in relation to its production values, but I enjoyed this more than Golden Abyss.
