DisturbedSwan Posted April 29, 2019 Author Share Posted April 29, 2019 Yeah full price (£40-£45) in the UK @Maryokutai at almost every store. I do get where you’re coming from but for many a AA SP game at £40 - especially from an unknown Dev/Pub - is just too much to entice people in in this day and age. Especially when you’ve got other AA games like Yooka-Laylee, Hellblade et al. That were £30-£25 Day 1. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maryokutai Posted April 29, 2019 Share Posted April 29, 2019 I really don't think this game is Yooka-Laylee territory. Hellblade is a good comparison but Hellblade was digital-only. As soon as you go retail your profit margin shrinks but at the same time you can't cut the price of the digital version or else you'd cannibalise retail sales. Well, in any case, I'm looking forward to it and I hope it does well enough for the people involved to keep their jobs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
one-armed dwarf Posted April 29, 2019 Share Posted April 29, 2019 I think the UK is going through a price correction for games right now tho. I noticed stuff like Spiderman was way more expensive on Amazon when it released. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maf Posted April 29, 2019 Share Posted April 29, 2019 I said this a few weeks ago. Game prices are now being sold at their RRP of £49.99 instead of the the usual £39.99 I blame Brexit and Trump Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maf Posted April 29, 2019 Share Posted April 29, 2019 Amazon too have bumped their prices up this year. I noticed back in Feb Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DisturbedSwan Posted April 29, 2019 Author Share Posted April 29, 2019 I’d say on the sites I’ve used prices haven’t gone up to £50 either, the most I’ve paid is £45 and that’s for PS4 Exclusives mainly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maf Posted May 14, 2019 Share Posted May 14, 2019 I know it’s a perception thing but when I see 79% I’m like “meh” but then I saw the 80% and my curiosity peaked Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bob Posted May 14, 2019 Share Posted May 14, 2019 @Maf don't be such a slut for review scores. 1% making a difference ass fool. I ordered this. I wasn't going to. But then I did. Should arrive in the next couple of days and then I'll add my score to the metacritic score to see if it pushes it over 79%. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maf Posted May 14, 2019 Share Posted May 14, 2019 Think you both missed my point. I’m saying to my perception that 1% made a lot of difference despite I know the reality of it doesn’t mean anything 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
