PlayStation Store Update

@luvtowhine- I guess I don’t think devs are frail, fragile little birds, like you do. Yes, the difference between you and I is that you’re plainly looking out for the devs and their feelings as your #1 goal. Well, (shocker!), gamers are also consumers and they make purchase decisions based on crazy things like length of games, the value for their money, etc, whether you like it or not. There’s more of me than they are more of you, thank goodness. Perhaps you’d be better off posting on some sort of Devs Forum. This isn’t the place for you, son. If you’re dying to pay more money for less content, you go for it! Enjoy!

Let me put it in plain language your little mind might be able to grasp: say you pay for a massage and the massage therapist is excellent. But the massage only lasts 5 minutes and you’re charged $60. You’re clearly the type of person who says, “wow, what a massage! Thank you so much! Can I please pay for another $100 for 10 minutes?”. I really wish I was someone selling you something….I’d have a field day ripping you off. So very sad.

Your “arguments” are making make less and less sense, so I won’t feed the troll anymore. Adios, poor soul.

Be warned….”The Park” is just 1.5 hours long, if it’s the same as the PC version. $12.99 for a game barely longer than an hour?

No thanks.

Oh and “stop equating” value with length? Ha! If you want to shell out $12.99 for a game barely longer than an hour, you go right ahead. And yes, a game like Witcher 3 offers a heck of a lot for its price point.

@Thumbs- thanks for the support. It seems Luv conveniently ignored your comment. You’re spot on in your comments and your points and criticism are well made.

As for Luvtoseek, did you see anywhere in my post where I criticized the game’s quality? No, I didn’t think so. Me personally, I’d never pay more than a couple of bucks for a game less than 2 hours long. That game length I posted is NOT a speed run time, btw. It’s the length of the game for most players.

I am certain many gamers are/were unaware of the short length of this new release. As ThumbsOfSteel said, we need MORE info like this for new releases, not less. If you don’t take value from my info, move on. Poor form to take shots for providing info some may be unaware of. If I was giving misinformation, that would be one thing. But I’m not.

Correction- PS NOW charges I believe up to $4.99 for 4 hours for a title and STILL people bash them! And that’s arguably more value than something like what “The Park” is charging! So, I wonder what those people would say to $12.99 for 1.5 hours of gameplay?

Doesn’t take much of an imagination to guess, does it?

@luvtoseek- your name certainly fits…you love to seek out any info on me. A bit obsessed with me, much? Going through my history to gather past quotes? I would politely request that you get a life.

I stand by all my past comments. You’re really that concerned about hurting these poor devs’ feelings? Really? I think they’re quite a bit more resistant to criticism than you think. I doubt they care very much. If you do your usual intense, obsessive investigating of me, you’ll see that I also defended the dev of Axiom Verge vs. someone who whined that the Vita port took too long, in the comments of the dev’s post apologizing for the delay due to his son’s illness. Conveniently, you left my comment out, didn’t you? Whatever suits YOU, I guess.

Bottom line- value is important to most gamers. You seem immune to this. Enjoy.

By the way, you investigative journalist, try googling “The Park ps4 too short”. You’ll get quite a few matches. That seems to be the major knock on the game from critics.

Oh, but I guess since *I* said it, my comments aren’t valid, eh?

Thinking you’re either one of the devs or a relative of one of the devs….or a classic troll.
