I checked the Steam site and noticed both Far Cry 4 and GTA V listed at $70. I’m confused about why such high prices exist for these games. Most people wouldn’t pay that much, especially if they were on sale. I think I’m probably just a budget player and wouldn’t pay more than $30, even at a discount. It seems unlikely anyone would pay that much for a game, so I might just wait for a sale or look elsewhere. How much would you consider paying for a game? Would you wait for discounts or buy them without thinking about it?

People from Canada always do that. I spent that amount on GTAV... And whether you like it or not, many others did too.

I can't exceed the $15 limit except for spin tires, which I can break once.

I'm a Canadian gamer. I'm worried I'll die before I get paid 70 dollars for a game. Canada hasn't supported me enough if they pay that much.

Because it costs more than just a budget doesn’t automatically mean stealing is the answer. It really depends on the situation. If I’m dedicating over 100 hours, it’s a solid investment. But if I’m only playing for a short time, it doesn’t add up. And if the game is solid enough to cover my needs for a few months, then it’s worth around 70.

I’m fine with spending $100 for a game, as long as it’s enjoyable.

Typically around $30 max. Anything above that seems like a waste (often I end up stealing it), but GTA 5 was different—I preordered it for $45, though I’m sure it’ll be worth it.

They likely would boost sales and attract more players if they priced their games between 30 and 40 dollars.
