Charging $60 bucks for a 14 year old game is insane

[₮Ɇ₳Ɽ]

Expected 30 or maybe even 40 but charging a full price of a game that came out 14 years ago with the same gameplay intact and slightly updated graphics is not it.

They are crazy to think this game will sell well with that price.

AND ONLY 6 HOURS GAMEPLAY

You probably judge this by a speed playthrough on Youtube or very rushing people. I'm at 10 hours and maybe 3/4 way through. I explore and play like a normal person. And the remake is extremely good to play, this is not a remaster so it's not "14 years old".

The first data for a new game on this website usually just show the rushers and it takes some times to see the true average. Needs more data. Been using this website for a decade so I already knew this number. By "very rushing people" I meant the first data on this website, among others.

[Caps Lock]

i dont understand your issue. its the full game, with expanded areas, vastly better graphical upgrades, and over 100 new collectibles added. unless you have the original, there is no reason to not get this if you want to play it.

This game isn't a simple remaster like many of you Idiots are thinking it's like saying the N sane trilogy is just remasters or the Spyro Reignited Trilogy

Lol N Sane Trilogy was $40 at launch. Proving a point you didn't think you agreed with lol.

Spyro is also 40€ for 3 games, which judging from the trailers are at least as upgraded.

Epic Mickey is reskinned ok but the old bones show, in the bare combat, the limited painting mechanics. By today’s standards is an indie game.

Fact is many recent remakes are so overpriced it feels wrong to support them. See the latest from Square Enix, Fantasian an iOS port at 50€ and Dragon Quest III HD 2D at 60€? Like Elden Ring and Baldurs Gate 3? There is an abundance of better indie and barely old AAA games for less.

The game is built around 3 play throughs for 100%.
That can easily add up to around 60 hours of content, which is more than worth 60 bucks.

That's a lot of words just to say "I can't admit I'm wrong."

Nah.

By the way the game already have 11.5h main+side stats today, going up, but still not enough data. Just check the reviews, people enjoying beating the game with 12+ hours, one almost 100% it in 20ish hours. Look I just wanted to say it's not 6 hours to get people better informed at that point. Moving on.

60? this game deserves to fail

[SHREDDER]

iT DOSENT DESEVE TO FAIL because it is the new Mickey mouse game which is the most popular Disney hero. Also for us pc gamer is a new game because 13 years ago in 2011 when it released for the first time it was only on nitendo console and not pc.
However, i beleive that the next Mickey mouse game will be a lot more successful if it is based on the comics. I mean the weekly Mickey Mouse comic that releases each Friday . Where he lives in Mickey City with Goofy and works as a detective and fights the bad guys.
A action Mickey Mouse game like this will be very popular i beleive.

[C²C^Guyver |NZB|]

Price is too high, yes. Deserves to fail? Really? No, certainly not.

[Romantic Karate]

Unless the remake is a bundle or the game's as massive as FF7 remake, There is no good reason a 6hr Wii game is 60 bones.

[Killerspinach]

I think a $40 launch price would be more realistic but it's Disney so they're gonna throw it out there at a premium and get that from all the die-hards first before the inevitable 40% off sale in less than a year. Whatever not a big deal but I do agree it's a bit charged up for what it is.

I've done two playthroughs in 24 hrs and have 100% all of the achievements and done all the side quests. Even if they added an achievement for collecting all the pins I'm only missing roughly 20 pins and I could have gotten them in my 2nd playthrough if I wanted to. Not sure where you're getting 60 hours of content out of it.

Even one in depth playthrough is only 15-16 hours. Most people only playthrough once. Imagine getting only 15-16 hours for $60. I got mine on another site for $40.

looks like it didnt work out for them: look how few sales they made and the abysmal playercount (which is indicative of sales).

Im not so sure THQ nordic will be around much longer, its been flop after flop for them.
