Shadow of Erdtree price (lemmy.world)

What do you all think about the price for Elden Rings dlc?

For me in Canada it's $53.49 +tx so around $61 total.

That's the cost of a new game, not a dlc.

Given the track record of the company I'm sure the dlc will be amazing, but I'm very curious as to the length of it as well.

even a gacha pull.

I'm in agreement up to this point. The only gambling that feels good, the only gambling you really remember, is the gambling that pays off. And that's part of what makes it so insidious.

Fixed price transactions, where you know exactly what you're getting, are all OK in my book from a consumer perspective. Pay to win included even if that kind of thing makes the game itself bad.

So to put this in real terms: I think that Genshin Impact is worse from a consumer perspective than Star Citizen.

Gacha games are one of the few kinds of games I absolutely refuse to play.
