the inadequacy of the price?

Post by ERMAKXOY »

simple -Polaris Sector lizards price of 34 and 48 euros (+ box), our wood 700. at GOG master of orion 30 euros, and our wood 900. Stardrive 2 - 22 euros, and 350 wooden + left already tricky DLS which spodvigkupit game for 400r. if we compare these games are not going into details (MOO and PS) we get that one game has multiplayer mode to the other is not, schedule + MOO, the magnitude and the feeling of space + PS, enhancement of the ship + PS and .t.d. You can compare, question like do not like do not take into account, I simply suggest to compare prices of its closest competitors, and the fact that there is in the game at the moment, and wonder how such a price? (Stardrive 2 actually corresponds to its price), I do not resent buy or not is everyone's business. only if it is necessary to sell the product in large quantities, it is necessary to do, and the price attractive, particularly in relation to competitors.

StarDrive2 has been released with more bugs than an Opteris Hive and the balance of a Kulrathi ballerina.

Polaris Sector's price is compared Master Of Orion???

The former is brand new.

The latter was new way back in 1993. And it cost *more* back then IIRC

One would expect the latter's price to be less by now.

What the heck is that all about? Does anyone understand what the OP is rambling about? Something about the price? Heck, raise the price and keep out the trolls.

analysing the OP post the only thing learned from it is:

his conversion rate between ZAR South African Rand (what he seems to pay in his neck of the wood) to EUR is about 0,068 :wink:

Granted, we arn't all from the western world to be well versed in english and making a few thousands of euro's per month making throwing that cash around kinda nothing. i can understand the culture shock when people from some parts of the developing world come on more western oriented forums. I do wonder though what he means with the "wood". Maybe he's a woodchuck from Borneo?

OK, granted. But, as a retiree on semi-fixed income I must say that the game is worth much more than I paid for it and that I have no idea what most of the OPs post was about. I HOPE he is not a native English speaker, but given the state of education in the U.S. that is not a given.

Yep. As another retiree on a fixed income, I have to say that I have already gotten my money's worth from this game and I just finished my first run-through with min stars and five players. By the time I master the game and go on to something else, the cost will be down to a few cents/hour.

sorry, * wood * is the slang - the Russian ruble, I'm just concerned that the game would be $ 40 worse than its competitors sell for $ 20 .i slitherine policy does not allow support RUS games, poor sales. spaserangers played? It is not worth $ 40, and it's taken until now. Just as the publisher of a strange price lifted for a remake.

You don't set a price depending on what something is worth, a price in truth is determined by how much you can get. As long as more money is made by selling at 40$ than 20$ (which then tottaly depends on volume of sales) then the price is best kept at 40$. And if you could rip people of by making it a 1000$ dollar knowing that combined with volume it would actually give you even more revenue then by economic logic you should.

I guess you are somewhat the victim of western people with higher purchasing power driving up the price for you. Eventually the distributor will ask what he thinks he can get and he will firstly want to sell a lot in the west with a price he might get there. Perhaps the developer could make a good amount of money by selling it in China for 10$ but that price can always come later.

Eventually the price will gruaduatly drop as the game is not new on the shelf anymore. There youre comparison with some other games like Moo doesn't hold up simply because that game has been on the shelf for more than a decade. The new master of orion costs 45$.
