No Mans Sky will apparently cost you $60

This is absolutely insane, are any of you actually gonna shell out $60 (£45) on an indie?

Nope.

Will grab it when it becomes 20-30 bucks.

It won't cost me anything actually because I'm not buying it. It looks very boring and repetitive.

if its a good game what does the price matter? or the fact they're indie?

@naughtyottsel: What does it matter if it's an indie? If it features lots of high quality content then it's worth its price tag.

By what little they are willing to show, it doesn't contain that.

Maybe it can procedurally generate me giving a **** about it existing, wouldn't that be something.

already a thread on this, from yesterday... No Man's Sky preorder starting 3/3, $59.99 on PS4

I'll wait until I hear details before I criticize the price... however, I do admit I expected it to be cheaper

I have been waiting on this game since the eighties.... I already have $60 ready for the preorder tomorrow

Yeah, I'd rather spend 60-90 on a game from ubisoft or ea.

I expected the base game to be $30-40. Ths will turn alot of people away from stepping outside their comfort zone.

@naughtyottsel: Yeah.. I thought No Man's Sky was an Indie game? Didn't Hello Games make Joe Danger & Joe Danger 2? Excellents games by the way. I own them both. I don't remember paying any $60 for them however. Why the hell is No Man's Sky $60. I was expecting no more then $24.99 to be honest.

I don't mind it being $60, but there are so many open world games out on PC right now that are $20-$30. I don't know what makes this worth $30 more though to be honest I haven't read much about it.

This and the new Plants vs Zombies 2 being $60 has surprised me, but if the game is good, I'll get it. I'll probably wait till its on sale or rent it.

They should kickstart it as well.

@Heil68: That's Garden Warfare 2. PvZ has stopped being indie ever since EA bought the rights.

Elite dangerous cost $60 (yearly), star citizen also $60, so what's the problem?

And indie that has more gameplay hours than all chapters of Halo,gears and forza combined.? Why not.?

Do you like playing games like NMS, Tormentos ?

I know I don't

Yet i am sure you payed $60 for titanflop with few content and online only.

If it was on xbox you would be loving it..lol

And indie game with more gamplay hours than all xbox exclusive put together since 2001.? Why it should not cost $60 considering that many of you lemming jumped and payed $60 for Titanfall which was online only and had few content on launch.

Do you like playing games like Halo?.

What is wrong with NMS kind of games?

Titanfall is not for me, I own it but I got it for $8 at a pawn shop, also I have no interest in this game, it looks boring and without purpose.

Doesn't change the fact that it was $60 online only and short in content and lemmings ate it.

So was titanfall again nothing really hot or new about another shooter.

Ain't gonna cost me shit 'cause I'm not looking to play it. If it turns out to be the "Bee's-neez" then I'll wait on a price drop. QB and then U4 will have my money for now.

It being an indie with a price tag of $60 holds no bearing on my plans to not pick it up.

It's a procedural generated galaxy with millions of planets to explore. I'm ok with it being $60.

Not a fan of games where you build and mine resources and it's completely open nature.

I like playing Halo every now and then.

The price doesn't bother me and I seen plenty of gameplay vids from last year so this is definitely a day one purchase for me but I might end up getting it on PS4 but we'll see.

Also if Cuphead cost the same price, I'll still pay full price for it as well cause that too has peak my interest.

Cuphead is a day 1 for sure, pray it's on Steam

Still, didn't expect it to be a full $60 game. I'll wait till its on EA access.

MS isn't founding the game, so I'm sure it'll end up on Steam.

@davillain-: Hmm wonder why there's no PS4 version then.

how is that relevant?

$60? And It's an Indie? Geez that's expensive for an indie. However that price is the same price for XB1, Wii U and PS4 games.

lol...did you just comment on this article today http://studiomdhr.com/cuphead-coming-in-2016-exclusively-to-xbox-one-and-pc/

I googled "cuphead PS4" and that was the first article and a ctrl+f "ps4" brought me to that comment chain

Hmm?

Oh yeah I was bored and right now ANYTHING is fun.

I don't see the problem.

I feel bad for the developers already.

Game looks boring, rather wash my socks

Playstation Access revealed some new info, only a little new footage though i think.

If they get the core gameplay down and the procedural generation is as good as they say then there should be plenty. I get a lot out of exploring and building style games and if there's more coop aspects to it for playing with friends then it'll get my £30-35. Plus there's space combat which i've not had in years.

I think Jim Sterling raised a good question: Why do we defend AAA publishers sole right to charge 60 bucks for a game ? When time after time again they have shown they wanna nickel and dime us.

Some indie developers are actually pretty honest dudes, that make a game with passion still. I'd pay full price for an indie game that's worth it.

And that's the main thing with this game: is it really worth it ? From the gameplay we've seen so far it's no really that "deep". But let's just wait until it's out and then we can judge: yeah this game is worth the full price. Or no, let's wait for a price drop.

If a game without content like battlefront can be sold for 60 bucks, I dont see why this game cant be sold at the same price as well.

A game being developed by a AAA developer doesnt mean shit to me, if the game sucks.

No Man's Sky will be one of the biggest debacles in gaming. This gen is the absolute worst.

Its $60 because fanboys hype Indies like they are AAA games, ever since Resogun.

since the last GB podcast im starting to be interested in this game. All this time and i ignored the hype completely but now that i hear the actual details, game seems very good. Will see when it launches.

$60?!? It's only $47.99 for Amazon prime members ;) Joking aside, it just depends how compelling the game is overall. If you don't like exploration the game isn't going to work for you. If you don't think it's worth the pricetag don't buy it. I'll most likely see what the reviews say and make a decision then.

I don't mean to single you out here but it's as if some of you hate video games. A passionate guy makes a video game purely for love of the art form. He clearly loves games like I do and like you do and wants to make a game that he would enjoy. For some of you this ain't shit compared to some AAA studio money making machine, making games predicated on demographic statistics and profit models and board room meetings of non gamer businessmen. How awesome our community seems right now! Corporate zombies most of you! Indie games suck, dumbed down action blockbusters rule! Amirite?

Only Nintendo and Persona games are worth $60.
