It's not expensive. Perhaps you just don't have a lot to spend. That doesn't mean the game is expensive. Like Etherlight stated: It's worth every penny.

The game is very reasonably priced considering the quality of gameplay, it's depth and replayability.

Might give you an idea when it might get 75% off again. Next you'll be making a thread complaining that the DLC is too expensive. ;)

$20 on humble bundle right now

The game is expensive if you buy all the DLC also. Even more expensive if you joined the alpha and coaster head club edition.
Anyway. If you search for 5 seconds you find that it is on discount again for 17 Euro. Also DLC's are discounted. 17 Euro is very cheap for the base game.

You could wait for a steam sell and get it cheap, and it comes up for sell almost every sell. I got it for only $11.90

Grab it in a sale, thats what I did and got it for about £15 or less quite a while ago.
Also try other websites instead of Steam like Humble Bundle

I've gotten over 160 hours of gameplay out of it, I'd say it's worth the price.

I agree, once you add in all the expansions -- which make it the most fun... it is a bit much. It would be nice if they gave special gifts as the anniversary of the game launch comes around each year - for the dedicated player :)

You're still a noob with only 160 hours. I have 1,317 hours in the game. Laugh with me 'cause I'm just sassing you.

Since you brought up how many hours one invests into their games if you look at Razar's hours invested into his gaming library one must question whether Razar would get his money's worth out of a game like Planet Coaster at any price. Razar has only 3 games (of the 40 in his library) where they have invested more than 100 hours. He/She has 8 games with 3 hours or less invested time and 7 games with invested time somewhere between 14 to 100 hours. The math only shows 18 of the 40 games in his/her library with any hours played.

Looking deeper into his/her library many of Razar's games are wither free to play or are/were cheap games (eg: Dota 2, SAS: Zombie Assault 4, = FREE; Mountain = $0.49). However Razar does own games like ARK: Survival Evolved ($59.99 current price on Steam) and Cities Skylines ($29.99 current price on Steam). Since Razar owns games like those and has invested only 1 hour into ARK: Survival Evolved and 54 hours into Cities Skylines I don't think Razar will get their money's worth out of Planet Coaster.

Razar's contention that Planet Coaster is 'expensive' is further weakened since they also own games like Prison Architect ($29.99) and Farming Simulator 17 ($24.99).

    ARK: Survival Evolved ($59.99) | time invested = 1 hour | cost per hour played = $59.99 per hour.

    Cities Skylines ($29.99) | time invested = 54 hours | cost per hour played = $0.55 per hour played

    Prison Architect ($29.99) | time invested = 35 hours | cost per hour played = $0.86 per hour played

    Farming Simulator 17 ($24.99) | time invested = 3 hours | cost per hour played = $8.33 per hour played

Razar might want to consider how much time he will invest into Planet Coaster before he makes rash statements like "the game is so expensive". If he purchases PC (just the base game and no DLC's) and plays the game for 749 hours (matching his most played game | Dota 2) then the game would cost a mere $0.06 per hour of play (if the game is purchased during a sale the cost per hour would be even less). The value of the game is dependent on how much time you invest into a game in relation to what was paid for the game. The value can/is different for everyone.
