$69.99, unbelievable.

JR北海道の待望の正式リリースおめでとうございます！
そして、なんとなんと、上下線で初のリリース、
しかも初の自動放送・・・!　

これは激アツですね。リリース日まで楽しみです!!

約7000円かぁ～（笑）
今月は留萌本線と大糸線と思っていたけど・・・苦笑い

ついに来ましたね！　上下線収録や自動放送など初実装もありこの大ボリュームで約7000円ですか・・・1万円くらいになるのかな？と思ってましたので衝撃のプライスです。安い！　

US$69.99 is way too expensive for your international audience.
Its the first time I am disappointed by the announcement of a new DLC.
7.000 Yen should be US$ 50 or 50€.
I would be willing to pay US$ 50 but US$ 70 is unbelievable.
Its a digital product and there is no reason people in the West should pay US$ 20 more then your Japanese players.

69.99米ドルは海外の視聴者にとっては高すぎる。
新しいDLCの発表でがっかりしたのは初めてだ。
7.000円は50米ドルのはずだ！
50ドルなら喜んで払うが、70ドルは信じられない。

Bruh how much？？？
Why don't you guys go rob a bank instead of robbing some railway lovers?
Do you guys really want to continue developing this game?

あなたたちはなぜ鉄道ファンではなく、銀行強盗に行かないのですか?
あなたたちは本当にこのゲームを開発し続けたいですか?

日本は極端な円安に加え、先進国の中でもダントツで国民所得が低いので、アメリカ人にとっての70ドルは日本人の日本円での体感に例えるなら3500～4000円程度です。
逆に言えば、日本人にとっての7000円はアメリカ人にとって140ドルくらいの体感ですよ。

70 dollars?? Jesus Christ, y'all treat your dlc's like AAA games.

What is the length km of the line in one direction, based on what you write, For the first time, the line will have two-way driving and automatic driving. Explain this in detail . Is this also winter driving ,in the snow because I see such a photo from the train.

Automatic Broadcast, not auto drive.
50km for one way, so that's total 100km for both side.
So Shin-etsu line which is 130km, they sold it for 39.99USD, this 100km line with auto Broadcast will reach 69.99USD? I can't accept that.

Amazing! Thank you!

The good thing is that you can finally drive 50 km in both directions. So for me the route is 50 km, not 100, it is always the section in one direction that counts. I will ask again whether there will be snow on the line in winter, maybe the manufacturer will comment. I've said several times that the DLC should be cheaper, $50 maximum, I don't understand why the Japanese don't take into account other players from poor countries like Poland, Ukraine, Pakistan - there are many such countries . Make the price cheaper and more people will buy and play the game.

True. $40 would be a good price.
$70 or 70€ is ridiculous in my opinion.
I can accept the 40€ DLC's when they have decent length (like the Shin-etsu line) but 70€ means I will not buy this DLC. Especially since the actual Conversion rate from Japanese Yen would mean we would pay only 50€.

@KajFlo Let's hope that the price will be cheaper not only in Japan ,Americ, Europe, but there are many third world countries that do not even have $40 for DLC, maybe the Japanese will allow people from African and other countries to play this excellent simulator train , even the price of $40 there it's too big.

True dude, I've spent more than 300 bucks on this game, but I would be very happy to spend another 300 as long as they continue make some interesting line or car to drive (like Limited Express or Shinkansen)
But this single line will cost 69.99USD? No, I can't see any difference between other lines (except Automatic-Broadcast)
About snow, I've noticed that this line was recorded last year winter so it should be full of snow along this line.
