Borderlands 4

I think he is saying GTA6 would probably still sell a lot despite a high price tag, but most games will be negatively affected. I can see GTA pulling it off, think most other games will suffer in sales numbers.

exactly...I'm not saying all games should be $80...but if there's one game that can get away with charging $80+ it's GTA6...I'm not even sure if ES6 can get away with it...maybe Half Life 3?
 
If Borderlands 4 is $70 or $80 I won't buy it even as much as I love the Bordelands series. If Gearbox thinks they can charge that much in an attempt to make up for the money they lost from their flop of a movie they're barking up the wrong tree.

I'd be a little surprised if they lost anything on the movie- they get licensing up front and Hollywood gets the risk and reward. (and totally blew it I hear)

yeah they didnt loose money on it the movie studio did.
 
Ol' Randy's on track to be a full-blown woman by the time BL5 releases, haha

I hate when people gaslight with the 'sorry for the misunderstanding' or 'this triggered some people', no it wasn't a communication failure or overly sensitive people, it was a bad message that was properly understood.

Be a man, own what you said.

Even if what he said is true and it was taken out of context, it's not up to me to help fund the insane costs that some of these studios are burning through.

"Sooner or later we're going to have to all adapt ... so that the creative engine can make at least as much as it spends." No, how about YOU adapt and return to making great games on reasonable budgets like what Sandfall/Kepler and some others are doing. It's very important that games like that continue to succeed so that they can prove it's possible to make amazing games and sell them for $50-$60 while everyone wins. This new push for an $80+ paradigm right after they were trying to get us comfortable at the $70 level is quite frankly BS, and I'll not be funding their lifestyles if they can't reign the bloat in. More people will just wait on sales or pass altogether while these studios desperately try to tout "number of players" as a meaningful metric to appease shareholders.

True. If the price keeps going up they bar gets lowered for how many units they need to push.

At this point in my life I am not in a huge hurry in most cases to get a game at release, some exceptions of course. But with borderlands4 I am excited for it, but with a fall release, I am likely to just wait for black friday sale (probably only 10-15 off but still) since I have more time to play in the winter anyways, and that isn't that much longer to wait plus gives time for bug fixes.

True. Might get a $10 off though. I mean DA:vanguard was free on playstation plus (or whatever its called) after like 5 months from release, so guess it depends how well it does.

You can Pre-purchase now, but why would you?

It's pretty sad when the "cheap" version of the game is $70. I guess it's better than the $80 it was supposed to cost.

All editions are available for pre-order today and will release worldwide on September 12, 2025. Players who pre-order one of these editions will receive the Gilded Glory Pack, which includes one Vault Hunter Skin, one Weapon Skin, and an ECHO-4 Drone Skin.
  • The Standard Edition includes the base game and will be available for $69.99 on PlayStation 5 (PS5), Xbox Series X|S, and PC through Steam and the Epic Games Store.
  • The Deluxe Edition will feature a variety of bonus items and will be available for $99.99 on PlayStation 5 (PS5), Xbox Series X|S, and PC through Steam and the Epic Games Store.
  • This edition includes the Bounty Pack Bundle, featuring four separate post-launch DLC packs, each with distinct areas, new missions, and unique bosses; four Vault Cards with unique challenges and rewards; new gear and weapons; four new vehicles, and Vault Hunter cosmetics; and the Firehawk's Fury Weapon Skin.
  • The Super Deluxe Edition will include all bonus digital content from the Deluxe Edition and will be available for $129.99 on PlayStation 5 (PS5), Xbox Series X|S, and PC through Steam and the Epic Games Store.

Borderlands 3 sold really well despite most calling it the worst of the 3 BL games so far...B4 should do fine, especially without any major competition from GTA 6
 
Bait and Switch we say 80.00 and you don't like it but we say 70.00 and you have yourself a deal from Gearbox. Basically the only game I want from Steam. I could get off the middle of Sept
but landed October's 1st week.
 
They locked people out of two Vault Hunters for the 129.00 US edition that is pretty lame. Those two Vault Hunters might be the best characters in the game.
 
I picked up the Deluxe edition only like the 6-7th game I bought this year on Steam.

I put 8hrs into 3 and dropped it like a bad habit. I don't have much faith in 4 being any better unless they make a clone of 2.

Yeah, Steam says my playtime on 3 was just over an hour. Haven't touched it since. The weapons just all feel bad to use, like nothing has any weight or impact. I played the hell out of 2, so whatever they did there they need to figure it out and bring that back.
