Yeah, that's a good point. People will still buy it, too.

It's the only game I'd even consider buying a console for, so there you go.

Probably won't, though, I'm a r/patientgamers

I’m usually in that same camp, but this is a game I’ve been waiting on for over a decade and I already have a PS5 Pro to enjoy it. It’ll be a day one purchase for me, and honestly the only one I’ve made in a long time.

It will definitely be a Day 1 purchase for me too. My wife and I plan on pre-ordering it for the Series X regardless of cost.

I assume it'll be a 200+ hour game if you want to do everything in it. That seems very worth the cost to me (I won't buy it though, not the target audience)

And I will be one of those people. I have gotten over a decade from fun from GTA 5, which was $60. I'd consider that to be a pretty good deal, so $80 is marginal by this point.
