But personally very cautiously optimistic for Hellblade 2. First game was a walking simulator broken up by repetitive combat and uninspired "puzzles". Incredibly overrated, just because there's some voices when you play with headphones on which make for a neat effect.
PC games have pretty much always been cheaper than on consoles, I remember buying a few PC games in Argos back in 99 for like £12-£14 roughly, like Worms 2 & Virtual Springfield.
Coming from the folks that buy oh let's say the Playstation 4 and a few years later buy the upgraded version. So that's accumulates to at least $300 - $600. But wait, a PS4 is not good enough, so they buy an Xbox Series X and/or a Nintendo Switch, so that totals to at least one grand. Also and let's not forget some folks out there buy the same console twice or trice just for shits and giggles, so I guess I won't have to spell out how much money that's going down the drain. And let's not forget Xbox Live, PS Subscription, and Nintendo Online.
For some that's worth it, a PC can do a lot more than a console, video editing is just one of many reasons, better performance than a console is another.
Sir, PS + is ranging on 120 quid per year now...you know, if you want the full experience!
I myself have a PC and Ps4, likely will get a PS5 at some point. For me I also just so happen to code on my PC and stream things from it all over the house.
If you ask me it's just cause they're not NEW. Harder to sell at FULL price when the game had already been out for months somewhere else and the hype train has already left.
That's not always the case. The Dead Space remake launched $10 cheaper on Steam than the console versions. There are some games however that launch the same price regardless the platform. Would be nice if we could hear from the publishers themselves on why they decide to launch day and date games with different pricing between consoles/pc when at the end of the day it's the same exact game
It's historically been higher on console to prop up the losses made on HW - consoles were typically sold at a loss and then propped up with the platform holder taking a 30% cut of every game, DLC, microtransaction etc.
That being said, that's not true anymore for the PS5 - Sony have stated that the PS5 is being sold at a profit - but don't expect a price decrease on games.
Such a good year for PC
Redfall ,Returnal ,Last part 1, Forza ,Starfield, Stalker 2 ,Hi fi rush and maybe Hellblade 2.
ooh, right after RE4? Not good
Why is it that pc gamers pay 10.00 less than first party ps5 games?
Great game. I enjoyed it. Part 1 is worth it if your a fan of the game and want better graphics.
