At that point people should refuse to buy it until it hits 70 or 60. They are going recouperate their investment unless the game is trash.
Good luck trying to convince gamers not to buy a (insanely marketed) game. Remember MW2?
Rockstar are scumbags
Never drop prices, their sales are minimal unless the game is ancient, and they do digital only now
Plus the whole “remaster a game by turning up the resolution and frame rate then charging you 50 dollars” nonsense. In my day we called that a “settings menu option”
It would have been considerably better if that was all they had done. Preferable even, compared to what we ended up with.
The GTA remasters are shit because they tried to actually remaster them, the contracted company wasn't given enough time, they sold like hotcakes anyway, so Rockstar kicked the remaster devs to the curb because they got the money they wanted anyway.
At least the RDR port was just a port.
Fuck that, <$20-30 or nothing. I'm not playing online, so I'm not wasting most of the cost of the game to be ignored by the dev. Fuck rockstar for turning gta5 into a live service game and entirely ignoring the single player experience.
