Gamer are so weird haha.
Game is 60 bucks. Game is doa (this is before gamepass announcement btw). 40 bucks would be better.
Game is 40 bucks. Game is probably crap and low budget. No buy.
I mean..
I guess that means $50 is the only answer!

Is that really all your going on, thats quite a leap considering SOD2 isn't some AC:O budget so it doesn't need to be $60 (and probably shouldn't.) SOD2 is 100+ devs 4-5 years, has a UE4 license. In terms of world size State of Decay 2 should be a bit bigger than oblivion and Skyrim, SOD2 has three maps each the size of SOD1's map. The maps are also a lot more detailed, each map is also going to be visually different. The original game had around a couple hundred traits, SOD2 has well over a thousand. The original has between 4-5 million sold, this is nothing like Recore. If it is actually £25, then I don't see what the reasons to worry are. The E3 demo behind closed doors had universal positivity, all that matters is if it's a good game. Recent screenshots we have got from the game, show the game progressing along well. Also here is some stuff Dusk Golem posted back at the end of November, the way MS is marketing these games has some people nervous.Recore was 40$.
It's probably shit and unfinished.
Much better example.
Fair enough, although it's unusual for literally every outlet to speculate full price only for it to be budget priced in the end.A speculation thread based on Amazon placeholder pricing =/= Microsoft leaking/announcing a price and then backing down from it, IMO.

i've been playing it for a few months already actually it's a good game.
I agree with this one.MS should market Fable Fortune more. I know it's not their game, but it is their IP. The game is good enough to receive the attention.
Well we should be getting one more screenshot tomorrow, thats your marketing lol.Honestly, I'm surprised about the lack of info on SoD2 at this point. There should of been some media blitz by now. I feel that MS takes too long to do this sometimes. If there was more info and media, I don't think people would be concerned about the price if it looked good.
Recore isn't shit tho.Recore was 40$.
It's probably shit and unfinished.
Much better example.
just realized that from Microsoft in 2018 alone we are getting
1)SOT
2)State Of Decay 2
3)Crackdown 3
4)Forza Horizon
5)Whatever mystery halo project
6)Ori 2?
On gamepass....what a value
Man like this sounds good n all but like... man idk. I just look at this list and feel so meh. Ori 2 I do want but idk. Hope the hall thing is good.

Maybe you should just consider getting another console platform then really. If this list doesn't excite you at all I doubt anything Xbox offers in future will.Sea of Thieves looks fun, and it was enjoyable to play, like I had a bunch of fun, but I can't really justify buying it.
I'm so sick of zombie games man. I'm so sick of zombie everything. At least give me a unique twist on them.
I don't know why but I just have zero excitement for Crackdown 3. Maybe I'll play it and it will just totally grab me. I hope so. But idk nothing about it looks seriously fun for me. The art maybe? I don't know.
Forza Horizon 1 was great. Forza Horizon 2 was good but not near as good. It lacked the atmosphere and personality 1 had. The map was also huge and less focused. Bigger but then less detailed. Forza Horizon 1 was my first and only 1500G game. Love it to death. One of the most enjoyable runs to 100% I've ever managed. 2 wasn't very fun to 100% at all. I was so burnt out from it I couldn't even get excited for Forza horizon 3. The world looks just as empty. Just as full of filler content. The same races over and over. Idk. I haven't got it yet, but I hope it's got a good variety and keeps it fresh like 1 did.
So when it comes to another one....I haven't even played 3 so the concept of 4 coming out just seems exhausting. Japan would definitely help me get excited tho.
343 has gotten me to the point of halo where I just don't care. Of course, when they announce something, in like eyy I gotta play this. But then I play it and I'm like :|
So right now I'm not excited. Completely and utterly unexcited. When they announce it I'll get excited unless it's a card game or something. Then when I get it I'll be disappointed again probably. Hope not I guess.
Ori 2 sounds great. 1 was good. I actually haven't talked about how I was kind of disappointed by 1. Kind of a long post. I like it enough to buy whatever 2 is.
Game pass I have no interest in and cannot afford not care to deal with the hassle of. I play games at eratic paces. I don't want to buy a month and then feel forced to play what's in it.
Overall though the biggest thing in all of these. Just kind of tldr. I'm tired of it all. I really like Microsoft games historically. But there's just nothing new here to get excited about. Sea of Thieves is no longer new. I have experienced just about everything there in a weekend. Really fun for that weekend but I can't care about it any more. Sick of zombies. Crackdown is an old IP. Forza Horizon will be the fourth entry. More 343 halo. Another piece of Ori content.
Like it's just none of it excites me. It's just old stuff or stuff that gets old really quick. Idk.
This is why you just pay $10 monthly for Game Pass to play Sea of Thieves instead of $60.Sea of Thieves looks fun, and it was enjoyable to play, like I had a bunch of fun, but I can't really justify buying it.

Forza Horizon should be counted because that's literally a bi-annual game. Next year will be Motorsport 8. Forza is literally an annual franchise. It's no different than assuming there will be another Madden and COD this year. I still think Ori 2 is early 2019 but... *shrug*Im most excited about Crackdown 3, but it's development have me worrying. Forza Horizon and mystery Halo games I don't count cause they are not announced. Ori 2 will be awesome, but is most likely a 2018 title.
State of Decay 2 will be bought unless it contains the same eurojank as the first game.
Some games that haven't sold well should get onboard with MS now before it becomes so popular that they won't get a good deal with them. Once XGP gets more popular, MS will have the upper hand in negotiations depending on who the developer is obviously. I think Capcom may start putting their games on there seeing as they are pretty adventurous with MS stuff recently with RE7 being XPA and now MvC:I being XPA. I wouldn't be surprised if both games go to gamepass to sell that DLC.I think gamepass might appeal to more and more devs of AA studios and AAA games that didn't sell to many copies intially.
I Wouldn't be too surprised if THQNordic teams up with games pass for its games.
You can cancel subscription when it's not fun anymore.Im most excited about Crackdown 3, but it's development have me worrying. Forza Horizon and mystery Halo games I don't count cause they are not announced. Ori 2 will be awesome, but is most likely a 2018 title.

But if you will only play SoT from the game pass and sub to it longer than 6 months, it'll cost more.
Dead rising would be a decent game for gamespass, it hasnt really sold great; But I'm also thinking about the more experimental games. THis could give more flexibility to studious down the road. Hey, Games pass lowered the Risk Assessment on a new IP so ya'll have X now to do a new IPSome games that haven't sold well should get onboard with MS now before it becomes so popular that they won't get a good deal with them.

That's exactly what Phil was talking about for Single Player games by them and how Game Pass allows that to happen. It's the same thing with riskier games by 3rd parties. This is MS' future, it's clear as day.Dead rising would be a decent game for gamespass, it hasnt really sold great; But I'm also thinking about the more experimental games.

I'm not worried about State of Decay, the behind the scenes impressions at E3 were glowing.
What if 1st party games from Ms being cheaper is party of the strategy?
I think the simplest answer is State of Decay 2 was priced accordingly by Microsoft relative to it's budget and the marketplace. That's it.What if 1st party games from Ms being cheaper is party of the strategy?
By putting all new games on Gamepass they sure hope the revenue from these games come mostly from the subscription rather than sales. But then you make them so cheap so anyone that doesn't sub also buys your game.
That way you achieve a insanely high player base, and since most of the revenue came from the subscription the extra sales are just that, extra sales/revenue.
It would be a extremely aggressive strategy, but I think it would work.
For those reading my tweets, I've heard from multiple places that State of Decay 2 isn't a "full price $60 title," and that the prices listed by GAME UK and Amazon are not errors. Trying to get definitive proof of that or confirmation from Microsoft, but it seems likely that they weren't ready to discuss the game's price just yet. I trust the sources of this info, but as always, stand by for confirmation from an official source. Sorry for the vagueness for those who care.

Good game is good game. Fuck price...and as I told you on twitter: "Don't care. GamePass"Additionally, I saw State of Decay 2 behind closed doors at E3 and have spoken to people who worked on the game. There's confidence about the title from Microsoft, and it has been described as "AAA," to me by multiple people, although their idea of what "AAA" is might differ from the general community's. I was told by Jeff Strain that Undead Labs is doubling down on the simulation elements from the first game, and there are richer dynamic narrative systems that create a story based on the emergent things that happen during play. I'm quite excited to see what emerges from the labs personally, as a fan of the original, full price or not.

But that's kinda the point, the revenue now won't come from selling games, it will come from subscription. At that point it makes sense to make the games super cheap because if someone doesn't sub it will have a higher chance of purchase. Which also pleases the retail market, as cheap items would sell more.Doubt it
Microsoft dropped several franchises and partnerships for not being profitable enough. Selling games cheap doesnt seem like something they would do
