Civ 7 is Early Access (Firaxis called it like that themselves) and the founders edition is 130 bucks, so I guess this is becoming normalized...
I just checked and nearly choked. I've played every single Civ game ever made. As much as I love the series, there's no way in hell I'm paying AU$160 for a base game.
It does include the first two expansions that will come out and leader packs and shit. I have sunk far more hours into civ than any other game. I very rarely buy a game, maybe twice a year. So it was worth it to me. I'll play it for 500+ hours and at that point it's 30 cents an hour of entertainment.
It's been normalized for a long time. I still don't buy it if it says early access though.
