Kinda agree. I wouldnt mind if they were like a dollar or cheaper tho.

I have bought several games for less than a dollar the past few years.. even managed to get a couple of free games from egs. So idk why we have to pay more than a buck for them.

That's not what this topic is about though tbh. This is about AAA games

Do you also think the people who spend their lives making games and currently depend on it for their livelihoods should do it for free?

Yeah most free games are shit, asides from a few outliers.

Overwatch 2 is pretty amazing but it's funded by shitty practices with its 20 dollar skins.

Super Auto Pets is free but with no draw backs, dlc pack costs money but way worth it

Last free game I played that I enjoyed besides those would be like.....Team Fortress 2?

I guess I liked Fortnite for a while but unlike TF2 if I downloaded it today it would be nothing like my original experience because the game is so vastly different now.

Scratch that I thought of Ape Sex Legends and Valorant were good but I didn't really put a lot of hours into those.

But all of my examples are multiplayer, never played a free single player game that was good.

If it's free, is it worth having? I mean what's next, free upgrades? Free weapons? Do you just want the next Mario game to start with all collectables collected, Bowser down to 1 hit, and Mario directly above his head so you win the second the game loads? IS THAT WHAT YOU WANT?!

Folks let me point something out to you all. This is a topic by HairyQueen who paid $100 for Diablo IV and all she got was three weapon or armour skins.

No HairyQueen video games should not be free and prices are not getting out of control. I have been paying 40 - 60 for games since my Atari 2600 days.

Video game prices are about the only thing that have never changed in price since the first day they came out.

You only think they are getting out of control after paying $100 for Diablo IV and getting right royaly screwed by the company that maked the game..

I have low standards tbh and the past couple of years ive been enjoying a lot of free abandonware and those free games you can find on itch.io/patreon

On top of egs free games and also those cheap games you can get from steam for less than a buck on sale (i think most if not all have been point n click adventures like my current sig). It a guilty pleasure of mine tbh

If you're doing that you're gaming wrong.

I don't know of any games that do that

Most games just try to rip you off with cosmetics these days

Both the sims and crusader kings are like that, just off the top of my head. It definitely happens and nobody is doing anything about it

I know it's common practice for paradox but it's not really industry standard. To be honest I wish companies were obsessed with making this much DLC still. DLC has kind of gone the way of the dodo because it's not as easy to rip people off their money, as it is just to make a $20 skin. People actually have to make effort into creating a scenario in the first instance.

Also I took a look into Crusader Kings 3, All the DLC is 90 bucks If you got that all 75% off it cost you 23 bucks. I know my way isn't for everybody but that's how I save money. I wait till games are a few years old and the retail price of a game is dropped and then it goes on major discount. Either that or waiting for a complete edition to do the same.

Only on mobile. On PC or console a one time cost to unlock everything is okay, but any DLC and the dev must sacrifice their soul to Santa.
