It's also 80€ in Europe. Everyone I talked to is waiting for the price to drop, including me.

As much as I love the Doom games I'm not really a fan of the $70 price tag. The Doom games are great games but it's not like they are in my top 5 favorite games or anything like that. I'll wait for a sale.

I paid about £3.50 for Doom 2016 last week and around £12 for eternal, having not played a doom game since Doom 3's launch. I'm enjoying the 2016 one and will look forward to Eternal in a week or 3 once I finish that. what I won't do is pay £70 for a doom game.
I might consider a games for windows sub to get it that way, but that remains to be seen.

It's 300﷼, that's 70 USD i think, what did they expect? I'll wait for it be cracked. I'm patient.

I can buy 12 indie games with that alone.

That price was doomed.

I just aquired a value cap to my interest in digital entertainment. Using the vacation money on living/home improvements and built for life camping gear. €25 indie rpg's and films for the tablet is enough but then again I have no teenage children that demand top shelf brands or else.

The reverse-Midas of Microsoft, whatever they buy turns to shit.

I'm one of the biggest fans of the DOOM franchise, I've played all the versions since the original one in 1993.
But I don't care if I play it now or in half a year. Or a year for that matter. Never really understood why having it first matters to anyone. I'll be here when the prices drop.

I was stupid enough to buy Spacemarine 2, when it came out, at full price (mostly because I loved Boltgun so much) and that was a great lesson about how you should wait around a bit before actually buying a game. It would have been a fun game for 15 or even 20 euro, but it's not worth 70 euro. I Should have bought Helldivers, anyway

Game is mid imo

*fewer than

good. i won't buy it until it's $10. and not even then if they haven't removed denuvo at that point

I just want id to do something else. Doom is fun and all but they’ve kinda perfected it.

It has nothing to do with quality, most people played it on game pass instead of buying it.

Commander Keen remake when?

How nice for Microsoft, I'm sure it's a big success.

Expedition 33 kinda takes all my time.

I don‘t buy any digital copy of a game for over 45 bucks, doesn‘t matter what it is… I also haven‘t finished DOOM 2016 yet and haven‘t even started Eternal. Not because they‘re bad games or because I don‘t like FPSs, but because I have so much shit to play and so little time.

Competition is fierce and asking 80 bucks when I got the predecessors for less than 5 each is just not happening. Just because games cost more to produce doesn‘t magically make customers have more money and time. It‘ll make release weeks stinkers outside of your GOTYs and makes more people wait or go back to 20+ years worth of other games that aren‘t 80 bucks.

I’m pretty sure that’s exactly how they want it to be. If they were interested in selling games they wouldn’t put them day one on gamepass.
