Forums - Sony Discussion - TLOU Dev Fires Back At Those Who Feel $50 Is Too Much For PS4 Version “It’s a Steal”

50$ is a good price. 30$ for the PS3 version is a great price, so I think 50 justifies the enhancements and added content on top of a 30$ game.

That's complete bullshit. It's not a bargain. A remaster of a year old game is not worth $50, no matter how you slice it. $40, and then we'll start talking. It has nothing to do with it being a good game or not. The market value of the original is already down to $30 new. Remastering it does not suddenly add $20, 66%, to it's value. Neither does adding DLC.

No one's here to criticize anyone buying the game at $50, but you're buying a rip off. Wait until it's worth your money if you truely want it, but don't give this the respect of a new release or a remaster that truely is worth $50.

How adding 30-40$ (not sure how much LB and Season Pass are going for) worth of DLC not adding value?



So it is happening...PS4 preorder.

Greatness Awaits!

Yeah, well, we all know nothing from the Sony side is ever a good deal for you. In other news, the sky is blue.



Buy the game if you need it.

Hush. Adding a Hero mode and a sail in a 10 years old game for the full price is awesome value. But everything that's been done and included on the TLoU Re disc isn't. Go figure.

Its a steal alright...

- Moderated, Carl


lol,

OT: If you don't like the price then wait for it to be cheaper, pretty simple solution.

Last year millions payed 60$ for almost half the content, and I don't think anyone was complaining about it not being worth the asking price.

But last year it was brand new. Why would anyone complain about a new game being full price?

They said time and time again, that it is aimed at people who own a PS4 now, but didn't own a PS3 or the game last year, not for double dippers. For those people it's a new game.

People complain a lot that the content within a certain game is not worth 60$.

That was not the case with TLoU, it had a very long single player campaign for a non-RPG or non-sandbox game and multiplayer. For newcomers it comes with additional couple hours of single player with Left Behind and all multiplayer DLC from the season pass.



So it is happening...PS4 preorder.
