Why are these games always more expensive?

[Colen Bardbarian]

Than other full release titles these days?

What are you comparing this to? To my knowledge most AAA titles are around $60.00 usd

Hmm so it is my bad. But Fallout 4 is cheaper.

It is, as is games like Batman: Arkham Knight and Just Cause 3.

EA and Ubisoft are incredibly greedy, and have been pushing £49.99 as a price tag on PC (as well as digital console) for a year or two now. That's the sole reason. CDPR overcharge TW3 on Steam because they want people to pay them directly through GOG. It's £50 there too, but you get some vouchers.

Yes well this was my question and did notice EA and Ubisoft were getting greedy.

Also while getting greedy their games don't seem to be getting better.

Heard good things so far about this though.

Ubisoft is quite opposite in India. Their games are much cheaper here. Ac syndicate gold edition costs equivalent of 35$ here. Meanwhile fallout 4 costs equivalent of 65$!

Got my AC Special Edition for 30€

[Orion1189]

$60 is the going rate for new AAA games these days, and has been for many years now. I bought The Witcher 3 shortly after launch, as well as pre-purchsed Fallout 4, both here on Steam, for $60 each. Some PC games launch at $50 USD, but $60 is just as, if not more common, unless you catch a pre-order sale or something.

Regardless of whether he was referring to Murica bucks Bri-ish pounds, my point stands. This game is no more expensive than is typical. Unless the pricing on games in general is just totally different in his region. :P

No, your point doesn't stand because the pricing is totally different. £40 is around $60, and is the typical price for AAA games. However, EA and Ubisoft have been charging £50 ($80) here for around a year now, out of greed more than anything else.

Same here on Brazil.

AC:S is R$ 129,99 (35 US$) for the standard edition and R$ 149,99 (40 US$) for the gold edition, while Fallout 4 is R$ 229,99 (62 US$) without the R$ 90 (24 US$) Season pass..
