You know, like McDowells. I don’t actually care what color my shells are. There are principals involved. Principalities!

    Base games? No, they do not. This isn’t some “special edition” or whatnot where there’s a cheaper option available, it’s the base version of a game.

      Anyone who doesn’t consider the full game (highest tier) to be the base game is too young to remember when the base game was everything

      What you consider the base tier is just the demo version

      Yes they do. I just went on steam and there’s a shit load of games that are that price. Xbox does it, Nintendo does it, PlayStation does it. Yes it sucks, and I can also admit we’ve been lucky, games used to $80 30 years ago, and if they had kept up with the rest of the world they would all be $300+ now

        Is it possible you’re not talking about USD? Otherwise I have literally no idea what drugs you’re taking.

            It’s a “you’re full of shit but I’ll be polite and just ask you to prove what you’re saying instead of jumping right to calling you out directly”.

            Lmao can’t provide proof when called out. Cmon show me all the EA, Activision, Bethesda, Ubisoft, Square Enix, From soft, Cdpr, etc titles with a base price of $150. This should be easy since everyone’s doing it.

            Ok if links to 5 is too much work, can you name one or two examples, without the links? We can all Google here.

              I’d accept even one example of a new base game being sold at a price higher than $70 US (before Mario Kart World), because I know it doesn’t exist.
