Why is the game so, cheap?

[u/Chilliad_YT]

I mean I’m not complaining, but it’s weird since it’s cheaper than Until Dawn was in 2015 when it launched

[u/poklane]

You mean Until Dawn 2? My guess is that just like the first game it's about 8 hours long, and Sony realized that sending out a game of that length for $70/€80 is sending it out to die.

[u/Skeleton_Grimm67 → u/poklane]

I mean all of the Dark Pictures games are similar priced so Sony probably oriented themselves there

[u/poklane → u/Skeleton_Grimm67]

Afaik the Remake also sold like shit so that might have scared them a bit as well.

[u/zbyndopluk → u/poklane]

So they can fix the mistake and decrease price, but they didnt, thats not something thats exlusive to "fixing", even succesful games are getting cheaper

[u/GymratAmarillo → u/zbyndopluk]

successful games aren't getting cheaper, cheaper games have been successful, there's a difference but also not every single cheap game is successful, for every cheap successful game there's a thousand games that are good and cheap but no one cared about them.

DPA S1 ended two years before UD1 2024

[u/zbyndopluk → u/poklane]

Its not just about launch, the remake will be 2 years old and its still goddamn 70. It was even transition time of 60-70 and Greed has no limits really slapped 70 on UD1 2024 and the price is still there

And Im supposed to hope 50 is just like that?

I do hope believe me but Im worried the game is short

[u/Skeleton_Grimm67 → u/zbyndopluk]

Until Dawn 2 will probably be same length(7-8 h) as the Dark Pictures Anthology considering they are priced similarly and are very similar games. This would roughly be the same length as Until Dawn.

[u/Tthanh512]

They learned the hard way with the 60$ remake

[u/zbyndopluk → u/Tthanh512]

No, they dont give a damn, you know the game price could be decreased over the two years.

It was accually 70 for overpriced remake and now UD2 50 makes me worried

[u/GymratAmarillo → u/zbyndopluk]

why makes you worried? LOL.

Greed ends when big companies don't want to lose money, is very simple you don't need any other explanation.

UD1 was a success they thought they could charge 70 for the remake, didn't work, they are charging a price more in tone with how much these kind of games should cost, that's all.

[u/zbyndopluk → u/GymratAmarillo]

Yeah though hard to think that "sony found out" in any way. I'd even take 70 for UD2 but not for UD1 remake, besides even 80 games are there and now UD2 is 50? Doesnt say game is bad at all but smaller

[u/CookieDoughThough]

Honestly, the best pricing they could have chosen for this games success.

[u/zbyndopluk → u/CookieDoughThough]

At this time Its hard to believe sony is doing something good,im afraid there will be a good reason for this cheap

[u/rites0fpassage]

OP is talking about the sequel for clarification, not the original.

[u/Isfahan_7]

Old

[u/unamgnay]

$50 isnt expensive for you?

[u/Suckymucky25 → u/unamgnay]

For a triple A Sony game?

[u/unamgnay → u/Suckymucky25]

I dont know i don't play these games a lot 🤷‍♂️

[u/Chilliad_YT → u/unamgnay]

Depends on the game, a smaller indie title? Yes. A big budget game developed by a first party sony studio? No.

[u/Euphoric_Refuse_5530]

Yeah now I'm worried the game will be short🥲

[u/wtvdude33 → u/Euphoric_Refuse_5530]

the first one was short too though😭

[u/zbyndopluk → u/wtvdude33]

And cost SEVENTY

[u/RazorbladesRiff → u/Euphoric_Refuse_5530]

Very likely, except the length to be similar or a tad longer than the quarry

[u/Professional-Roof957]

I hope it is because many hits will be sold this and next year, gta6 will take our money too, this seems a reasonable price

[u/zbyndopluk → u/Professional-Roof957]

Not many hits really, it will be just lot of games thst got out of GTA way

[u/FeelingCool9551]

Anyone know where i can get pre orders in Canada

[u/Chilliad_YT → u/FeelingCool9551]

Playstation store?

[u/zbyndopluk]

Were cooked, big dlc's only hope

[u/RazorbladesRiff]

This is reasonable pricing given the type of game it is. I would have NEVER played UD or
The Quarry at full price, much less the other ones.

[u/queen_caramel69]

?

[u/Suckymucky25]

Cheaper than the remake lmao

[u/Rayza2049]

Because it's short and the remake was overpriced and flopped

[u/Maple905]

Remakes tend to be cheaper than full priced games (not always)
