You should commit to not posting on the Steam forums the rest of the year, too.

"most expensive game ever" maybe for you. There's been other more expensive games sold in the past.

And "ever" hasn't happened yet.

So back in the '90s and I assume '80s, localization took a while. And the PAL countries often got things pretty much dead last iirc.

Chrono Trigger, in 1995, was $80+ in the USA. Adjust for inflation, that's $160 today.

That's $271 in New Zealand Dollars. I don't know how much Chrono Trigger cost in New Zealand. But I suspect it was far more expensive than this game.

People ignore inflation when bellyaching about video game prices. In reality, video game price inflation has made the costs in fact LOWER today than in the past.

Also, Chrono Trigger was an extremely hyped game. And it was worth it.

If it makes you feel any better,

The Assassin's Creed Valhalla: Complete Edition still costs $180.00.

You aren't far off the mark.

And I'd much rather play your game today.

Dying Light and all it's add-ons cost $239 USD. And don't even think about the Sims 4 which, full franchise will run you $789.59 USD.

And then there is Paradox... Oh boy, there is Paradox!!!
