Current Events > The last game you paid full price for, and was it worth it.

(+) Yeah! (+)

Full price is the msrp on release.

Elden Ring. Yes, it was worth full price.

Elden Ring for me as well.

Before that, probably Mass Effect: Legendary Edition.

NCAA college football 25

yes

Unicorn Overlord.

Baldur's Gate III

and my answer is yes, abso-fucking-lutely!

Shadow of the Erdtree was the last thing I bought for MSRP, but if we mean full $60, it would've been Pokemon Scarlet at launch, which is a resounding hell yes for either.

FF7 Rebirth and yes it was.

Probably Fire Emblem Awakening.

It was worth it for sure.

Horizon: Forbidden West (PS4 version). Yep, worth it, though was a bit bummed that PS4 didn't get the DLC.

Funnily enough, the next game I buy at full price might also end up being that same one (but PC version this time). Recently played Zero Dawn, and I do want to replay FW + play the DLC at some point. Never got (and probably never will get) a PS5, but I sure do have a PC, and the PC version has the DLC. Doesn't look like that game's going to be on sale much though; I've seen once that it dropped slightly but otherwise it's remained at full price so far. Maybe when Horizon 3 is announced...

Baldur's Gate III

and my answer is yes, abso-fucking-lutely!

So good I bought it twice.

Core Keeper-Its overhead view Terraria and it's pretty great so far

For a non indie game, Dragon's Dogma 2. It was okay, but definitely not worth full price

Marvel vs Capcom Fighting Collection.

Yes.

Arkham Asylum.

It was at the time, but no game is worth launch MSRP anymore.

Gundam Breaker 4. I'm having fun with it, so yes.

Actually wait, I got a slight discount getting the key from Green Man Gaming. Eh, close enough.

Space Marine 2, and fuck yes.

Unicorn Overlord. Bought the collector's edition, even. Worth every freaking penny.

Metroid Prime remaster.

Yeah, it was worth it.

Farming Simulator 22 and yes because I love the series.

And in November of this year I will do it with Farming Simulator 25.

Astro Bot and Space Marine II (Actually more than full price for Space Marine because I got Gold edition for the Steelbook)...

They have both been definitely worth it

rabbit and steel

had fun playing it with friends for a few hours but I bought it literally yesterday so hard to say if it's truly "worth it" yet. inclined to say yes

Space Marine 2, can't really say since I haven't finished downloading it.

Otherwise it'd be For Honor and that's an emphatic no.

Dragon's Dogma 2.

No.

for myself? bomb rush cyberfunk. yes absolutely, 100%'d it right away.

to play with others? chained together. no it wasn't worth it but at least it was cheap.

Helldivers 2, though I only bought the $40 version so. Absolutely not worth it.

Does this mean new? Because I think the last game I bought was a used copy of Adventure Island for NES, which I bought used, but it was probably around MSRP, if not more.

If we're just talking new games, then possibly The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom. Haven't actually started it yet, as I'm still working my way through Breath of the Wild, I just bought it so I could start on it as soon as I finish Breath of the Wild.

Yeah I'd say Space Marine 2 was worth it.

Super Robot Wars 30

Well worth it, already clocked 40 hours and Im not even halfway through the game yet.

Unicorn Overlord. Then you have to all the way back to Elden Ring and.....maybe back to 2018 for Dragon Quest XI for 2nd and 3rd games.

Dragon's Dogma 2.

No.

I'm still waiting for that to be heavily on sale before I buy it.

Lol and a couple of hours after I write this, I get a notification from Steam that it's on sale. Not a huge discount tho.

BG3 and yeah. Well worth it.

Everything else I get is either game pass or giveaways

Doom Eternal

Paper Mario TTYD remake. Put 35 hours into it. Don't regret it at all.

FFVII Rebirth and no it was not.

Super Mario Wonder

I played half of it and didn't beat it.

Helldivers 2, yeah, almost 400 hours in it.

Hades II if that counts, since it's in early access

Helldivers II otherwise, I think

Definite yes to both

Dragons Dogma 2

I thought the game was worth it. Played a couple hundred hours. The extras were bullshit, though. That was not an additional 10 bucks well spent.

Hadnt bought a full price game since 2011 (hellooooo, Skyrim).

Edit: That last line is not true. Forgot about Tactics Ogre: Reborn. Point remains. Full price purchases are very infrequent.

I think Shenmue 3 was the last preorder I ever did and it didn't pan out that well.

Maybe Fallout 4 barely qualifies, mostly because I did the season pass stuff toward the beginning before they doubled the price (and then subsequently sold a bunch of settlement-building assets for half the pass). Still, as disappointing as FO4 is in many ways, I have gotten several hundred hours out of it, even if it is just repetitious "go to area --> kill ghouls ---> sell legendary rolling pin" antics.

FF VII Rebirth

Absolutely worth it.

Fire Emblem Engage

Overall, yeah. The lategame got incredibly frustrating, but before that I had fun and got a crap ton of playtime out of it. Wouldn't completely rule out a replay either, but I'd probably stop before said frustrating lategame lol.

Persona 5 Royal when it came to steam. I regret not waiting for a sale, but it was fun.

Astro Bot, and yes.

Astro Bot, and absolutely.

Madden, yup yup.

Final Fantasy XII The Zodiac Age and absolutely. A better version of what was already one of my all time favorites.

Starfield

I mean, it got a lot of hate, but I've really enjoyed it. Probably gonna be like 3-4 years before it goes on a big enough discount it would be worth the wait, so I'm satisfied. Excited for the DLC in like a month
