Why are $70 AAA games slashing prices so drastically?
(lemmy.world)
It's beyond insane to me that a $70 "AAAA" game (kidding, it's AAA) dips down to the absurd price of $5. I've never seen anything like it. Wish the entire Sims 4 "collection" if you can call it that was $5 total, would be incredible, or Starfield.
The slow burn lowering prices over time also maintains a bit of long term income for a maintenance team to patch and improve the game. This game is 2 years old and is getting slammed down to $5, that says to me they're just trying to cash out on whoever is left that wants to buy it but hasn't, and then I'd bet this game never sees an update ever again afterward.
