Good!

The worse the reviews, the faster the price will fall. Looking forward to playing this one when It drops from console price to PC game price.

In my opinion, it isn't even worth your time to play it, even if it's free. It's just bland. There are games that do interesting things, but Starfield was so safe and boring.

I enjoyed my time with Starfield. It definitely was worth the price of 0€.

It may not be a masterpiece, but so are many things people enjoy.

That last bit is particularly true. Every game I play doesn't need to be the best game I've ever played for me to enjoy it.

you could just borrow it off the internet

Glad I did. Got bored about an hour into it and was soooo glad I hadn't paid full whack for it

Western game prices usually tank super quick though. With call of duty usually being an exception.

Which is weird, since there's a new cod almost every year (or at least it feels like that)

[–] Mr_Blott@lemmy.world 4 points 11 months ago

It's not weird when you consider it's usually parents that are paying for it!

Really? To me it feels more like every six months. It used to feel like my friends were trying to convince me to buy the newest one every week.

That's why they gave two studios working on cod games, so they can have multiple in development.
