BioShock Infinite taught me that season passes are fucking bullshit if the developer doesn't want to say what's inside them until later
Tekken 7, Fallout 4, and upcoming BlazBlue Cross Tag Battle all have shit season passes and yet they were very eager for you to buy them before they revealed what was inside Wow Jin-san, it's like a thrilling mystery or something! --- Sometimes I say things and I'm not voice acting. ...

There's no chance I'm ever buying a console again until they drop that pay to play online and season pass bullshit.
You pay $60 for a game and then you have to pay for PS+/Xbox whatever it's called? And a season pass in some games? No thank you. I'll stick with my $20-40 CD-keys for PC games that are free to play online after you purchase them. ... Copied to Clipboard!

Bethesda literally made people think they were getting a deal by giving them a discounted price on it.
I was dumb enough to fall for it. I haven't even played anything in the season pass outside of Far Harbor ... Copied to Clipboard!

It's easy enough to get console games for less than $60, and you don't have to buy season passes. --- You are now breathing manually. Lets put a little lead in the air, and see what falls over. ...

I usually never buy season passes because fuck that, but I bought Fallout 4's because Fallout 3, NV, their other games usually had good DLC, so I figured I'd just take the chance. And holy shit the DLC was so ass all around. Just reeked of low effort content. And they had the audacity the raise the price of that shit too. I'll probably never buy a season pass again, especially from Bethesda.
Bethesda's handling of the game after launch has been pretty shit and really soured my opinion on them. Fallout 4 was a day one buy for me and I had a great time with it but I don't think that will be the case for me with any of their future games. ... Copied to Clipboard!

I have a friend who uses NA account to buy games because they're cheaper than here in EU, but that's about it. And it's not that I couldn't afford it, it's just a matter of principle. I feel like they're just trying to see what they can get away with until stop buying stuff. ... Copied to Clipboard!

Why do you think consoles are the only guilty party here?
Only reason PC regularly has cheaper prices is because there's more options for buying on the internet. Like someone said, waiting tends to be the best bet for some games, whether that's a physical release or flash sale. I've gotten some fairly good prices during flash sales especially --- Sometimes I say things and I'm not voice acting. ... Copied to Clipboard!

I usually buy online. I know a couple of sites that are much more competitive in their pricing than shops, and tend to ship games to you early.

The MSRP pricing is the same regardless of platform; buying it cheaper doesn't teach them learn anything besides making complete editions.

Why do you think consoles are the only guilty party here? My bad, I guess. My original point was that there should be no damn paywall after you pay the game. It's ridiculous. And they hide it behind stuff like free games every month, etc. As for season pass purchases, it's also pretty bad. In my opinion, every game which has items that give stats purchasable with real money is bad. Look at Valve, they're drowning in money and they have only two games that are popular right now. One is free to play and the other one is $10. Both have purchasable loot boxes and items, but all of those items are purely cosmetical and give no gameplay advantage. And people still buy tons of that shit. Which just shows it can be done. ... Copied to Clipboard!

I was just about to post that literally the only company I will get a season pass from is DICE and their Battlefield games. They're pretty spectacular when it comes to consistent, long-term support and really getting quality content from their DLCs. --- PSN ID: Aristoph http://www.youtube.com/user/SotCRules ...

The only problem with battlefield season passes and dlc is you are pay a lot and then they keep having dirt cheap sales for it.

I was tempted to get the season pass for fallout 4 and I'm glad I didn't.
I've been gaming for awhile and I've never bought a season pass I've always bought the DLC itself if I wanted it. I'm glad to see season passes are dying off. --- PSN: Adrian396 XBL: Prime Legacy Nintendo ID: Apocalypse ... Copied to Clipboard!
