Squenix Game, Black Friday sale, not too surprised. Probably would have expected $30-35 range.

Are you guys for real? It's a $60, triple-A game from a major publisher that came out not even a month ago. Under normal circumstances (meaning: if it hadn't sold like shit), this kind of price drop would've never happened

It came out to zero hype and fanfare. I wasn't even aware it was coming out so soon.

Not at all. It's single-player only. You can only control Star Lord.

From what I've heard, the combat is dog shit but it's gorgeous visually and the story is really strong.

I picked it up. I did plan on checking it out, but mostly bought it out of pity, since it can't be doing well to be this low, lmao.

Do you think it's just because of low sales and not probably a combination of the two?

lol, that's a little harsh, but yeah. I'm sure black friday was part of it, but...there's no way it'd be down $25 just for that. $50 or maybe even $40, alright, maybe.

But UNDER $30???
It's60% off in less than a month.

Technically dont stores including amazon have to check with the publisher/dev first before slashing any prices of newly released games? Companies like Nintendo would most definitely refuse such a price cut even for black friday.

No because the devs/publishers already got their money when they are sold to the markets. The markets can charge what they want. They can give them away for free if they wanted to.

Are you sure? Last I checked they couldn't do that, otherwise risk getting cut off from the retailer.

This isn't even remotely close to true for the vast majority of vendor-retailer agreements.

And that stops a retailer from cutting a store chain off if they disobey how? Last I checked on this, someone was complaining about Nintendo's games never dropping drastically in price and I looked it up and apparently stores that do not follow MSRP will get cut off, but if the games do not sell, they can send the games back to the retailer for a full refund.

It depends on the agreement. It IS a suggestion, but if you undercut the maker of the game they will stop selling you copies. Happened at Game Crazy once.

There's usually a weird window a bit before black Friday where you should definitely not buy any new games that aren't going to sell insane amounts. They always end up at least $40

Bought it and playing through it now, it's a really great game. I wasn't expecting to enjoy it so much. It was $38 on the Xbox store though, not $25.
