$70 is not the default on steam.  Square going $70 on steam, for an old game, that doesn't even run great was a poor strategy. 

Step 1 for success, know your target demographic. 

On Steam:

FF7 integrade, a ps4 game, is $10 more than Forbidden West, a ps5 game....  that is a poor strategy to win over a target audience.

Integrade is a PS5 upgrade with additional content. The additional 10 USD is less than what Playstation players paid to play it 

It was not an old game either. It was only one year old

A ps4 port with a bit better graphics.  And it is $10 more than Forbidden West Complete Edition...  

We may have to agree to disagree.  I can't rightfully say Square has good Steam strategy.  Waiting a year and charging more than others isn't how to build a fanbase.  

And it doesn't matter what PS users paid.  PC is about good pricing.  $70 is high for PC..... especially for an old game.  

Edit

And Integrade was a lazy port with notorious stuttering even with high end hardware. 

So wait a year, charge more and offer a poor port.  Gee, I can't figure out why it didn't sell?!!?
