Exactly. They can charge $200 if they want to but it doesn't mean people are going to buy at that price. The price point needs to be where people are okay paying for it and I don't see it happening at $80. Okay, I lied a bit, I see it happening for some games but not for BL4.
How do you know for certain without seeing gameplay or trying it? No one knows what's in the game except the devs.
What if it's OG borderlands and there's no battle pass or microtransactions.
This is more of a don't pre order type thing.
Ha, good joke
I'm willing to eat my words but I doubt I need to. In a world where Clair Obscur costs $50 I don't how see how BL could be $30 better than one of the best games released this year.
I always trying my games before i buy them.
IMO If they made a game exactly like BL1/2 with better graphics and updated gameplay, it still wouldn't be worth $80.
BL just isn't all that great, but fortunately the price of their games falls to what they're worth pretty quickly.
