$80 for Borderlands 4 too costly? Randy Pitchford says, "If you're a real fan, you'll find a way to make it happen"
-
Or get it second-hand off G2A or CDKeys.
I'm never paying $80 for a video game.

I'm not a huge fan of Borderlands. I like the stories. But I don't like the loot goblining. Constant hunt for ever higher damage numbers.
There's only 1 company I'll pay $80 for a new game. And that is Ryu Ga Gotoku. Cuz they don't miss. No bad half finished launches. No bad games. Every game is a masterclass in Peak.

I get it's a bit of a niche genre, though. The factory thing the way Factorio does it isn't for everybody.

Guess we all know what we have to do

Shut up. Dingus.

Like waiting 6 months for them to panic over low sales and put on 50% sale?
Maybe, or maybe I'll wait for the ultimate edition with all dlc to hit $40

There is a glut of amazing content out there for $40 or less, and much of it is truly inspired indie work. When your half-price game is competing with great full-price indie titles, I will continue to ignore your overpriced corporate muck.

I honestly don't know how people play this game. Every 12 seconds coming across new gear. Can't do it.

Like the point of the game is loot goblining, but they’ve promised not to inundate the player with legendary weapons every twelve seconds so that you actually have time to savor the weapons you get between good drops.

Yeah, no.

Can you recommend me a starting point? For someone who has no experience with these games, or any Japanese games besides Soulsgames and RE4 remake.
Feel free to roast me in the process.

Then play Judgement and Lost Judgement. Not part of Yakuza's core canon. But adjacent.

If you're a real fan, Randy, you find a way not to fuck up the franchise, but so far after Borderlands 2 you managed to deliver us disappointment after disappointment. So fuck off, I'll pirate 4 to play it for 3 to 4 hours after which I'll delete is because it sucks as expected. If I manage to reach 40 hours of gameplay, which is 2 euros per hour, I'll buy your game. But we both know this isn't going to happen, right Randy?

I found a way already, it's called patience. Works well for basically any non nintendo game.
