Why does this cost so much?

[JG99]

Why? Why ? Why ? Whyyyyyy?

[space]

it's standard $70

[PanPan]

Games were 60 bucks 10 years ago.
There has been around 20% inflation.
So price is now 70.
I don't understand people complaining about prices on PC : you can wait discount or more...

Many new games are $70 now, for example:

Dragon Ball: Sparking Zero
Monster Hunter Wilds
Civilization VII
Metaphor: ReFantazio
Silent Hill 2 (after release)
Dragon's Dogma 2 (after release)

It is what it is. It is ok, I think, to criticise the general trend. But it is not ok to blame the publisher of this game for the price of $70 when it is just one out of many in this price category.

You bet they wish they where working on a movie instead for this game is mostly just that extended far too long with meager gameplay.

There are sparks of truth in this comment. Playing the game almost feels like you are Indy in one of the movies. Which is why the game is so incredibly good.

Don't like it buy it elsewhere, fun fact you can buy steam copies other places cheaper

My biggest issue is the stuttering and frame drops that crop up in the game (on high end hardware) that start to become quite noticeable after the 2 hour mark, disqualifying you from a Steam refund.

So you're stuck trying to troubleshoot what is, essentially, a non-troubleshoot-able problem while also trying to become immersed in the game, which is almost impossible. You just have to wait until MachineGames and/or Nvidia patch the problem, which probably won't be fully fixed for another 3 to 6 months, if ever.

So basically, you're out $70 after supporting the devs as a PC gamer who bought the game at launch.

Played over 20hrs at steady 60fps in 4k, on the game-pass version without dedicated fullscreen mode before gifted this on steam where it works fine too. 5950/6900 so I’m even a Gen behind.

Fix your settings for your hardware, update drivers, bios etc.

I don't mind that it costs 70 bucks, I mind that it costs 70 bucks for 14 hours of play time.

I bit the bullet and bought it and I totally regret it. This game utterly sucks, it plays like something from the 1990s. Seems like I got scammed, once again they put out fake reviews and we get screwed.

Bidenomics doing it's job. Didn't he just do a fantastic job in office?

About the game though, IMO it's a solid game if you love Indiana Jones. If you aren't a fan or don't have the cash, I recommend waiting for it to go on sale.
