my god 60 dollars?

[Grim Reaper]

I get this is a AAA game but damn, Sega could have lowered the price for what people will actually be getting with this. Let's keep in mind this game comes out in a month and looks so unfinished and empty even in the latest footage.

It looks like it takes place in the Windows XP backround, think about everything else you could get for 60 dollars, besides Sonic has been on a mediocre/bad games streak for a while now and this doesn't look like it's an exception. Yeah I'm not gonna even consider playing it and nor do I really care, I just feel bad that there are people who will spend money on this when games like Elden Ring exist.

I also hear the system requirements are insane and I don't think that's acceptable, this game has no business to demand so much out of hardware.

the point with that is the fact that this game has no right to be asking for a 1070, neither does it have the right to be asking for 60 dollars. But we'll see, I don't wish for it to be a bad game however it doesn't look promising at all.

Are you aware of the fact that games become more demanding as time moves on???? Sonic moves fast so you'll need hardware capable enough to keep up in an open world.

Hate to break it to you, but... every single 3D Sonic game is like this.
The stages are often so large, mainly due to the speed Sonic travels at, that the levels are never loaded in their entirety, but rather small chunks of the level are loaded as you play and progressing through the level unloads earlier sections that aren't needed anymore as new areas are loaded in.

Open world games often work the same way due to hardware limitations, but Sonic has been using this trick since Shadow the Hedgehog despite the games using linear levels. In fact, it's the same trick that the PS1 Crash Bandicoot games are well known for.

The game being infected with Denuvo means it's justifiable to get it for free since that'll be the functionally superior version. Yar, har, harr

you can also pay 70 for skyrim on switch

Not judging to people who pay the game at full price but doesn't seem worth preordering it since may have some problems such as technical issues (ex. sonic the hedgehog 2006), recycle assets (sonic generations), really poor control (original sonic R), and so forth.

I rather wait for the game to be on discount and mods that would make the game interesting.

Same goes for any game.

Not really for some games have demo that gives you a rough idea what to expect. I don't rely on game-play trailer for it can be rig to entice the player to buy bad game.

Mania costs less and is still better.

No it's not. In inflation-adjusted terms games are considerably cheaper than they used to be despite skyrocketing production costs.

Still doesn't change the fact that most AAA games these days are worth too much.
Heck, with the state of the AAA gaming industry over the past decade or so, most of them aren't even worth a single dollar, and no, that's not an exaggeration.

It kinda is an exaggeration, one easy to see as well. But yes, when an AAA game is 100$, it goes beyond a limit of what is reasonable. These games can be ignored unless you're rich. This is why I always deal with bundles and keep an eye on indie games here and there.

Not when the current state of the AAA industry is usually broken games that don't even work at launch, are excessively monetised like it's a free to play game or when they're just the exact same game as their predecessors only worse.

True, that's why I don't waste my money on them.

So many great indie titles have come out lately and have basically succeeded in all the ways the AAA industry fail at nowadays.

Okay but let's not generalise. Not every games have issues at launch. Saying that they're not worth anything at all is a big exaggeration. Some games are just fine or fixed quickly if an issue comes up. Let's focus on the real problem. Too expensive for the content they give.

I still irk at how Sonic Forces at release was SO expensive and game was like 1 hour long.
