First and foremost the cinema isn't $60 per ticket and actually no, I always have a general idea what a film is about and have heard some opinions about it before I actually go and pay for it. And nope I have not received surprise present (not that that isn't an absolutely horrible analogy anyway, since people are not rarely very disappointed with surprise presents) either. The restaurant is the same, I highly, highly doubt that you'd ever go to a restaurant and pay $60 for a meal that you've never tried before, if you haven't heard good things about it. Also, you conveniently left out the digital part of my post, you can easily buy the game on day 1 with the PS app and have it to my knowledge even download while you're at work, so that's another reason for pre ordering gone. And I find it hilarious that you're actually trying to make this into a fanboy thing, have you somehow not been paying attention in the last couple months? This has nothing to do with personal vendettas against certain games or companies, it's all about stopping companies from releasing broken games. |
I am making perfect sense thanks.
Well if i go to the cinema with my family it costs around £28 just for tickets (before I buy food) so yeah thats starting to get expensive. I am using that as an example... I am not saying, oh the price is different.... I am saying people find something like like the look of and go and watch or buy, games are no different.
You are suggesting that people have no idea about the games they are buying... I know perfectly well what the Order and Bloodbourne or any other games are before i buy it... how is that any different to a meal, cinema, or music... it's not.
Ah yeah people *NEVER* go to a resturant they havent been before and buy a meal. I dont know if you live in a small bubble somewhere where you only go to a single place... but just cause you dont doesnt mean no one else doesnt.
People dont have to buy digital... some people dont want to buy digital. Stop using your own opinion of what you do as a reason why others shouldnt or cant.
Also I have no where made this a fanboy thing... you are the one to bring up fanboy. I am saying as an industry as a whole, not any particular company or game.
Also I am happy to take the risk of there being issues with games day 1, games are very complex things you know... there have been technical problems with games for over 30 years. Some of us can handle that... dont need a nanny state to tell me what to do. I mean Elite Frontier was so broken that you had to order a replacement set of disks through the post... thats when broken games were a problem, these days, these issues are nothing.
Making an indie game : Dead of Day!
