So the whole $79.99 thing didn't come true. Good, I suppose. I'll still wait for a sale since the super duper bundle will be $129.99.
7800X3D - 7900 XTX - 32GB 6000 - 1440p Ultrawide
Interesting that the bundles revealed we're getting two more Vault Hunters sometime later... Glad to see extra playable characters coming back

If Epic's track record is anything to go by, they'll be giving it away for free on EGS months after its launch.
Thanks for reading!
Randy never officially said it was going to be $80 despite his poorly made arguments on why such a price is fine.

I agree with you, but the internet is not smart.

I mean borderlands is the one series you can count on appearing on steam sales for like $3, so I would just wait it out, lol

it was fair to assume his words were suit damage control and the possibility of it being $80 was high, it has nothing to do with being smart or stupid. it's just how the industry is

Nah, let's be real. He was absolutely considering that $80, but he got so much pushback that he decided to go for the middle ground between the old $60 price point and the new $80 price point.

The situation in general was just silly. Someone on twitter asked him to not make the game $80 and he was like "not my call, but " and we proceeded to get "real fans would find a way".

Really there was no reason for Randy to respond or continue after "not my call".

LMAO $130 to play the full experience since characters, missions, and whole areas are locked from base game.

I wouldn't pay 80 dollars for any Nintendo game or 70 dollars for any incomplete version of a game.

Eventually even indie games will follow suit at a similar price point because of people following trends.

You're right, it isn't $80.
It's $130 because that version has story missions and characters which the former at the very least should be in the base game.
PS5s have liquid metal tech like the T-1000- AceCombatX

Ultra Collectors Editions not actually containing the game isn't new. It's stupid, but Gearbox isn't the first to do this.

I'm buying BL4 day 1. It's one of those game series that I just have fun in. Even when the story was shit like in BL3 the gunplay felt good.

After Borderlands 3 came out such an unoptimized mess I don't really care how much they're charging at launch because I'm not paying anything until I see how badly couch-coop is broken on a non-pro console.

In other words, Randy BITCHford should've kept his mouth shut.

$130 may not be the full experience if they decide to release a second season pass. Learned that the hard way with the "Super Deluxe Edition" of Borderlands 3

I wouldn't ever assume any release bundle goes beyond "season 1" content.

B3 was pretty great gameplay wise. more i see on B4 the less i wanna buy it at launch. i carried a friend through like half of 3. he wants to play 4 at launch but the more i see the less i wanna buy it. especially with them having 2 characters and 6 areas in day 1 dlc have charging the price of a brand new game to get the rest of the game. i'll just wait like a year for it to be $10 on pc with everything.

Well, Borderlands 3 was the first game that I remember actually doing a second season. More games might do it now, but it definitely wasn't common then

What? Borderlands 3 launched in 2019. There were tons of games doing multiple waves of DLC before that.

And when the game fails:

not enough people and *fans who couldnt find a way* handed over >130$ and therefore we couldnt afford to keep the franchise going

Are you sure? I even googled it to make sure, and Cities Skylines and DOA6 were about the only ones I could find (also 2019) that had a second season pass pre-2020.
Edit: Naruto to Boruto Strikers also had a second season in 2019

Even borderlands 2 had scummy DLC practices, the season pass only included the campaign DLCs and vault hunter pack 1. GOTY included everything season pass did + the new characters + few others, but still didn't contain the skin packs, headhunter packs or the vault hunter pack 2 (Or the Lilith DLC that released later.).
LURKING HARD!
or hardly lurking, see?
Can't say I particularly give a shit what it costs at launch.

After that babyback Marie Antoinette bullshit, it could be five dollars and I'd tell Randy Pitchfork to pull his head out of his ass.

I like the series, I even liked 3, but I'm fuckin' done .
