they can charge whatever they want.
you can choose to buy or not to buy.
that's how the market works.
in videogames you can wait if you don't like the price and generally speaking the price eventually goes down to almost zero for most games.
@trip1ex Of course they can change what ever they want, it doesn't mean it's a justifiable change from the consumer perspective.
I can vote with my cash and choose not purchase, that's my privilege as a consumer, but that means the change hasn't worked from a marketing perspective.
But this isn't how the market works, it's how EA's pricing scheme works, the proof is that the rest of the market has not adopted the same scheme.
Amazing how quickly some people forget.
What we paid to get BFV bought us a hell of a lot of frustration, anger even at times.
Who knows if this next BF title will be any better.
DICE are great at making trailers and building hype. Unfortunately there tends to be the same problems with their games over and over: Lacking team balance, lacking anti-cheat, lacking game balance, way too much focus on adding gimmicky stuff…
Pricing does seem a bit random for next gen:
PS5 battlefield, amazon 65 marked down from 70, game 65 full price, psn 70 full or 63 with ea play discount.
Was looking at hitman 3 and game had ps5 version £5 more expensive then ps4, amazon the other way round and psn both the same in a 50% sale.
But games normally go up in price when a new console comes out and yes you probably are paying more for polygons and lighting and some extra square footage rather than actual game. I was expecting £60 rather than £70 though. And you probably need the subscription for online too?
