Philippines Price is 3899 Pesos???

[AncientFlames]

For reference games like Hogwarts Legacy are 2999, Avatar Frontiers of Pandora is 2899, Hell, even call of duty with its terrible pricing is only 3499. Why are the prices for this game so ♥♥♥♥♥♥?

Because US pricing for hogwarts is the usual 60. The US price for DD2 is 70, thus all regional prices become higher as well. AAA companies are now trying to push 70 as the norm.

Nevermind that there's, at best, three good AAA games every two years.

So much of it's garbage that I've clocked out on 90% of it. But I like MH and DD. I just think these companies operate too obese. Tons of fat on these companies where sustaining it makes them no longer take the risks that made them staples in the first place.

It's like all of this events web presence and marketing and branding ♥♥♥♥: it's ALL waste, sunk budget. Nobody gives a ♥♥♥♥, it doesn't sell more product or make better product. Quality sells, people talk about it, focus on only that: and quality becomes your brand. The company will grow, all that's required is persistence and diligence.

Don't they realize that's not how you make money in other regions? $70 in the philippines is more like 100-120$ in the US.

It's absolutely ridiculous, I swear the more time goes on the less publishers even bother with regional pricing anymore.

Got lucky and bought Avatar for only 289 PhP in Epic store lol, price bug got fixed quickly after

They no longer care about regional pricing differences and economic conditions -- all they want is money, money, MONEY!! Thus, you get the same pricing in Calcutta as you do in Switzerland.

capcom, please fix SEA prices. :(

I'm sorry to say, but regional price is pretty much dead, at least on the AAA market and no ammount of cries will make to change that.

What can be done is to wait for a sale and buy when the price is compatible. I'm from a third world country too and likely can't afford this game at release. They don't care about more people having access to their game, they care about profit numbers being shown at the board meeting.

uhm, then they lose profits especially with people with no regional pricing switching to stolen cc bought keys and buying accounts?

Yeah, I'm surprised Capcom pushed for this price. I would've bought it if the standard edition is P3000 or less but anything past that price is too much for me.

If this becomes the norm for AAA games I'll support indie games more instead.

Especially when it'll be $45 if you preorder on CDkeys most likely.

It's like companies don't understand some profit at for example 2000-2500p is better than no profit at 3899p. I know NO ONE who will buy this or any other game at that price in the Philippines. It's out of most people's budget.
