Why is everyone complaining about the price?

[Cultist]

The game contains all of the dlcs and this game is very complete all steam achievements and badges and such. The price makes sense it also took money to port the game. ♥♥♥♥ is not free people sorry.

[REDMVGE]

they expect it to be $10, maybe $20 AT MOST since it's already more than a year old.

PC gamers are always in debt. They buy 4090's and tank their bank account into the red, then they cry about expensive games.

So, imagine you gain $1200/month and this game costs $300. Would you be happy about it? 'Cause I'm not!

This.

The bulk of the vocal people have legitimate complaints from differing regions where the cost of living/wages don't at all serve a direct fair currency conversion from USD.

The other small minority of complainers are from 1st world countries who are just being cheap I guess..

I mean I'm a pc gamer too but I bought both versions of this game on ps4 I just don't get it atlus is also porting over p4g and p3p so they are using resources to do this it's not just a small feat.

I think they're somewhat justified.
$25 for the base royal game on consoles right now.
The tacked on dlc are all just costumes and bgm's most people wouldn't end up buying, so they feel like the bundled dlc is being used to raise the price.
The port definitely required work though.
Anyway you can go play it for $1 on gamepass if you don't care about "owning" your games.
Or guys, you can wait like 2 months for the winter sale.
You can also get 15% off on Fanatical, and 10-20% if you're a humble choice member.

For anyone who never plays the game I still think is worth the price But I don't think it's a good idea to bring dlcs into price arguments when dlcs it's just mostly costumes garbage not everyone wants that But SEGA just forces everyone to buy it with the game?

Because people complain about the price of every single game when it releases, especially if it's an older game coming to a new platform.

Aside from people who are legitimately affected by lack of regional pricing, these complaints are largely people being entitled and butt hurt.

This is actually understandable but isn't that a problem with steam moreso than atlus I know that some games can get up to like 80 to even 100 dollars even in places like th uk I'm not sure though I don't know how the money conversion works.

[MangorushZ]

Just people who shouldn't be gaming on PC in the first place since everything seems expensive for them and want things to very cheap or free. Personally they should get a job or a second job or find a new hobby since video games is expensive for them.

Sort of both I think.
It's ultimately up to Sega/Atlus to set the price (Japanese devs never take regional pricing into consideration I've noticed.. ) while Steam offers a 'suggested' price based on regional norms without enforcing anything.

Yeah it's 100AUD for me at the moment, I'm just weighing up my options. Cheapest I can get it at is Gamesplanet at the moment. Might pull the trigger within the next hour or so.

I mean I understand, if I lived rent free in my parent's basement like you I wouldn't have to worry about the money I spend

Well no matter how you get it I hope you enjoy it!

[demounit]

do Atlus pay people to come on here and make threads defending their pricing? why is everyone so quick to defend absurd pricing by corporations... it's okay to be disappointed by a game that's priced way too high. here in australia the game is $100 bucks. that's wild. new games here usually retail for $69 or $79. that's for a brand new game.

A number of people could literally just subscribe to Game Pass for PC for a month and play the thing for a tenner.
