    What AAA title is worth $80? The most time I spend gaming is in a 10 year old shooter, and an indie survival game. Both of which I bought for <$20.

        There’s plenty of jrpgs half that price point with twice the length though. Heck, even the previous GTAs have at least that length for a cheaper price, and are occasionally even cheaper now. Be patient and you’ll likely even get the game given away for free.

            I’m trying to point out that i don’t think that the length of a game shouldn’t really be indicative of the price. I have no issue with him enjoying the game or buying it.

              Pointing out a game genre with more hours of gameplay for the price is a strange way to point out game length shouldn’t matter.

                He was saying that £80 was worth it cause of the amount of hours. So i brought up games with similar or more hours that are cheaper. Including prior gta games…

          I’m lucky enough to own literally thousands of games. Most of which I get at a deep discount. Games like GTA and Red Dead are usually an exception where I’ll play on day one. Even though Rockstar tends to milk a title long after a release, the attention to detail is worth the price to me. I’ll still check reviews first however.

          There’s plenty of jrpgs half that price point with twice the length though.

          Gotta like the JRPG genre for those hours to be fun, though.

          I think the last major JRPG I was willing to play to completion was Final Fantasy V.

          I’ll play the occasional CRPG, but JRPGs aren’t really my cup of tea.
