Waiting For a Sale

[GrandMajora]

While I have no doubt Sparking Zero is going to be an awesome game, I am not going to pay 70 friggin dollars for it. You are out of your minds if you think that's a reasonable asking price!


Having played Xenoverse 1 and 2, as well as Soul Calibur 6 all on PC, I am painfully aware of how short lived fighting games tend to be.

Jump Force couldn't even last a measly 4 years before shutting down, and now even Shinobi Strikers is dying out on PC.

So yes, while I do plan to get this game eventually at some point, it will not be at full price!

good for you but who cares?

Preach. Bandai is bold for that lmao

[Elrohir Telemmaitë]

Dude. Standard editions have been this price for years, just go to a CD Key site if you want cheaper. If it’s still too ex-endive then get a job to make a better income

What is with these posts where people are announcing they're not buying the game? Like cool and all, but why? I can't fathom why people would care. I'm not even trying to be rude, I just...don't understand why.

Another one of these threads... why do you have to announce to the world that you aren't buying it? They will make serious bank on this game with or without your purchase. Either get your paper up so $70 isn't an issue, wait for a sale or don't buy it. Posting on these forums whining about the price doesn't change anything - they won't lower it.

"Short lived"? Xenoverse is still getting DLC 8 years later...

Short lived? XV2 came out in 2016 and is still getting DLC.

Dragon Ball FighterZ got 3 seasons worth of DLC. Tekken 7 got 4 seasons of DLC. Street Fighter 5 got 5 seasons of DLC.

If anything fighting games have had longer life cycles than they used to have years ago or would you rather go back to the days of when Bandai would release a new Dragon Ball fighting game a year apart that wasn't much different than the previous game?

Measly 4 years? A fighting game lasting 4 years isn't a bad or short thing.

What are you considering "not short lived" by comparison? World of Warcraft?

This isn't a fighting game dude. You're looking at it completely wrong. You spend 60 dollars at the movie theater on tickets, snacks and ♥♥♥♥, and it's over in 2 hours. This is the NEW Dragon Ball Budokai Tenkaichi game. For the first time in it's history, It's going to be monumental. The game focuses more on the player's PvE experience than PvP. I'm sure PvP will be a part of it, but the devs already expressed that there will be no balance. It's not meant to be a hardcore PvP game dude. It's an experience. Build your own "What-if?" scenarios, and clear the story.

In Singapore base game is $89, the Asking price for base game is reasonable tbh. You don’t get High graphics like that with a $10 3d engine. The Devs put in work for this and not just graphic wise, game modes in game interactions etc. unlike that Awful JJK game this is worth it.

The game absolutely is a fighting game.

The fact this guy compared Jump Force to this game, like wtf. Get out of here lmao.

This game's gonna be solid. It'll have the same community as the PS2 games and will be alive for many many years.

People will be doing private lobbies. But we all know, this game is gonna be more popular on consoles then PC.
