Bitchford wishes he could be part of something that was even near a single iota of the same quality of BG3.

Look, you can charge whatever you want.

"Is your game worth $80 to average gamers dealing with (gestures broadly at state of world economy)?"

That is the question every studio executive needs to ask themselves.

Given the recent trends in AAA-funded projects, for the most part, that answer is "Oh, hell no."

I didn't even buy Borderlands 3 for $60 and there's no way in hell I'd pay $80 for something similar. I spent the full price of Baldur's Gate 3 for myself and two of my friends for a total of $180. Make the game worth it and you have my money. If the development cost of games has gone up then prove it and make better games.

I haven't bought full price games in ages. Games are always released half finished now. Wait six months to a year until it goes on sale and they actually finish the game.

I bought borderlands 2 the other week and it's been a blast on my SteamDeck. Unfortunately it seems it's one of those games that loves to connect online all the time, like it'll kick me out of single player if it detects wifi and make me reload into... singleplayer, but online. with 0 differences.

I probably would've been better off pirating it tbh.

There once was a game that was not free
The head of the game was big Randy
He joked one day with a cheery grin
Real fans would pay the fee HUAGH

Soon may the pirates come
To snag some games and have their fun
One day, when the cracks are done
We'll take our games and go

Greasy Randy isn't exactly known for being not gross prior to the comment either

Every Corporate asshole: "Give me all your money, you don't need to eat, sleep, or live. If you don't, you're not cool like me!"

So sick of dropping asshole companies because of idiots constantly pushing this garbage. Oh well.

"But I was trained in management school to think of people as nothing more than numbers! It's not my fault!" - corpo piece of shit.

Charge what you want but don’t be cocky about it, easy.

Damn. I honestly had no interest in Borderlands anymore, but this has inspired me to pirate Borderlands 4 just as a fuck you.

I thought it would be Swen making the comment, happily surprised to see it's someone else at Larian.

Will Borderlands 4 be an Epic exclusive like 3? Really fighting an uphill battle there

it's incredible that pitchford is still allowed to talk. there should be a bot that auto-responds "shut the fuck up" to everything he says, tweets, or even thinks.

hey I'll let you price this 80 bucks if you fully refund me for the scam that was borderlands 1. fucking unfinished piece of shit, i can't believe i played that game for multiple hours hoping it would improve beyond the first.

and later i learned that i was completely right to quit that shit because the bullshit throwaway story of this "rpg" doesn't even conclude properly. it literally ends like Geraldo Rivera's fucking Al Capone vault.

fuck you pitchford. shut the fuck up and go back to "storing porn for the purposes of researching magic tricks" or whatever. literally never speak again.

Real fans would find a way to wait for the game to go on sale for $2.

Welp looks like it's know what the next jimquisition is going to be on.

I mean, extremely low hanging fruit there...

Guess I will wait for Dale then. I didn't even finish the last borderlands
