Agreed it's deeply cynical on their part...but the sad thing is that people will happily hand over their money for it.
Genuinely, I would.
If only they appealed to me as a consumer at all. If I want to play it, I have an Xbox and it's much cheaper on there. What I really wanted was a PC port, which they didn't launch. Instead, because of the Switch port, not only am I not paying them, I'm just slightly more likely to pirate it and emulate if I ever get the hankering to play.
I would've paid $50 for a PC port on Steam.
these damn fools porting it to the two most popular platforms instead of the one you in particular wanted. they should fire whoever made that choice smh
I mean, yes? People have been waiting on this game for 13 years and PC has only gotten more popular since. Rather than do the three most popular platforms that the game isn't on, they did two. If they've managed to port it to the Nintendo Switch of all things, they can spit out a half-baked PC port.
I mean you can ignore the slew of other older games getting ported to PC over the years, be it the Xbox exclusives, PlayStation exclusives, Capcom console exclusives (Dragons Dogma, Dead Rising, Devil May Cry), absolutely countless numbers of JRPGs and similar, and more, but that doesn't make me the ignorant one.
