As shit as a leaf if, I've noticed lately that I was mistaken. I always thought Sony were the most rabid fanbase but it's clearly Nintendo. I bought a Switch so I've been in a few Nintendo threads and on some Amazon reviews and these people are nutcases and actively seek out reviews to take personal offence at. Every negative review on every big Nintendo releas on Amazon has dozens of comments personally insulting the reviewer, complaining about the content of their review, or telling them that they are outright wrong.

>implying that's not how much AAA games should actually cost
AAA games have warranted a higher price tag for years because of ballooning budgets but everyone knows the first publisher that prices their game above $60 is absolutely fucked as all of America will autisticly screech at them.
Which is why DLC costs are so high compared to the content they contain and why DLC is so fucking prevalent, they're meant to subsidize the base game cost.

So publishers have been taking advantage of any country with a shit currency and hiking up the price to what it should be, and shifting blame to MUH UNSTABLE CURRENCY.

Of course, they could just scale back the budget on their games especially the ridiculously bloated marketing costs, but nah, fuck the consumer instead.

That isn't how placeholder prices work. Why would they start randomly at $100 dummy? RDR2, battlefront 2, detroit, spiderman, anthem, all have standard price placeholders. It's only Mario Odyssey, Pokken Deluxe, Switch Kirby, Metroid Prime 4 and Switch Yoshi that have $100 "placeholders".

Also, every single retailer has them all at $100.
>>
>>381249450
WB and Nintendo are both jews, so WB opted for the smallest cart Nintendo sold for their game and made it need 13 GB of space (almost half of the 32GB the Switch has) on the HDD for a patch just to make the game PLAYABLE.

Well you can't cut on that for a simple reason, marketing is just an arms' race. The moment you spend less than competitors you'll be seen less and it'll hurt your sales.

See how media buying price increase around E3? That's just because manufacturers/publishers are fighting to occupy all the available space. Likewise during the holiday season.

Marketing is all about competition, if your competitors are spending X millions for a campaign, you are indirectly forced to something similar amount as well (provided it's for a similar sized project).

Yes you'll always find games that succeeded with lower marketing budgets (or games that failed despite the high marketing budget), but those are more exception that the rules. Marketing is just that effective and people just spend their money on w/e gets the most exposure (i.e. see how mobile garbage have 80%+ of their budget dedicated to marketing in order to be successful).

Having trouble to read? Undertale was a fucking meme game. Some games successes like that cannot just be explained. Rocket League is the same, not like it had massive budget and now it's one of the most popular game.

You'll always find exceptions, but your average AAA Title will not succeed without extremely large amount of marketing budget could it be for media buying, PR, influencer marketing and so forth.

Large publishers aren't spending 100's of millions just because it's fun. That's to secure sales.
