The game costs roughly one third of a AAA game and it doesn't seem to be any worse when compared to those... so it doesn't seem expensive to me.
Limbo is a one year old game and this one is 2 weeks old, so Limbo is not the best example.

Bastion for PC is launching just weeks after the 360 version, and with a some special features (namely the 1080p support and new control scheme). Also it's longer than your average $60 first-person shooter campaign. With that in mind, we felt it was fair to offer at this price.

I agree. Definitely has the spit and polish look. For a first release from an independent developer, that's an incredibly strong start. I'd definitely like to see what else this team can do. :)
Here in Poland since I have to pay with euro the game is actually more than a half of a high budget shooter. I will still buy it but its not exactly cheap.

Anyone who thinks Limbo is "crap", is a moron. However, definitely feel free to say something along the lines of, "I don't like that kind of game" or "it isn't my cup of tea". But "crap"? Not even close.
You can still appreciate things you don't personally like, prefer, or enjoy.

If it is a lengthy and engrossing game, I think $15 is pretty ok.
Reason why I don't pre-order are because there is no discount and the developer don't seem to have a track record.

The developers suggest their should be a demo closer to release.
Seriously you think $15 is too expensive for a game? The price point seems a little low to me from the suggested quality of the game, even if I'm hearing length of about 8 hours.

Reason why I don't pre-order are because there is no discount and the developer don't seem to have a track record.
• Length? It took me about 10 hours to beat the game, searching for all the items and upgrading/buying everything. That's NOT counting New Game+ mode OR the 'arenas'.
• Discount? It's a brand NEW game. With MORE features than the XBox version, at the SAME price as the XBox version.
• Track record? It's the developer's FIRST game. That means they have NO record, so how can they have ANY track record, much less a GOOD one?
You know what other developer had ZERO track record when they came out with their first game? VALVe. I don't think you understand the meaning of the phrase.
If you still need convincing, it's got the 2nd best metacritic score for an XBox 360 game(Bastion is currently an exclusive, that is why I am specifying xbox) over many triple-A full retail price releases. >> Metacritic << (http://www.metacritic.com/game/xbox-360/bastion)

Sorry folks @ Supergiant Games, I'd give you the moneys on launch but unfortunately celebrating my bday is gonna eat all my disposable income for this month :(. But you can bet your left flesh nugget that this will be the first thing I'll buy next month.
I'd say 15 € is just the right price for Bastion! For example just look at the art style, how could you resist something so gorgeous. The length is going to probably be just fine and dandy, hell I bought Amnesia for 20 € and it was a five hour game! I'd recommend to you all to check the soundtrack too. Sounds mighty fine to me so far.

It took me about 12 hours to beat the single player on Bastion. I did not unlock absolutely everything, nor did I beat all the trials in first place.
Couple things. Firstly, the game Limbo looks identical to a free flash game on kongregate gaming site. Got rave reviews there, but it was free.
Bastion was awesome. Not just in gameplay, which was great, but the story was fantastic. One of the best stories I've experienced in *long* time, like maybe 10+ years. The guy who does the narration does that throughout the entire game. You won't go more than 20 seconds without hearing his badass voice giving you a tidbit of story or help and sometimes in a comical way.
This game is worth buying, trust me! Barring any bugs the PC version may have...check out the demo when it releases and you'll see.
Price is more than fair, that guy is delusional. Especially since Limbo is maybe three hours long.
Agreed. Just because one indie developer priced their game a certain way, that does not mean ALL indie games share an equal worth. Limbo is a very simplistic platformer/puzzle game whereas this seems to be so much more.
10 hours for that price is an amazing deal. For example, Dungeon Siege III was a full $50 priced AAA title and I cleared that just 13 hours during my first playthrough (while trying to do as much as possible).

Those who don't like the narrator's voice or feel like it doesn't fit the game's atmosphere will probably be annoyed by the fact that he is constantly speaking.
The reviews are pretty much 50-50 on the story, some say it's lacking and quite traditional RPG-plot, while others say it's wonderful (and a few say it's hard to follow).
If you form an average from the reviews, the story is good and the length is between 5-7 hours for the first playthrough.

Yep, $15 is WAY too expensive for a game... Well, I'm off to go drop $120 on Black Ops for the game ($60), the three maps packs ($15 each) and new one coming out soon that is just remakes on World at War maps plus one new one ($15). $120 for one game really isn't as much as a rip off as a whole $15, when a game nothing like it (Limbo) came out earlier for $5 less.
Expensive?? Are you guys mad? Its a bargain and i think ill be getting two copies :)

As much as I love Torchlight it hardly has 'way more content.' Torchlight's only saving grace is it's infinite dungeon/ability to procedurally generate dungeon floors and MMO-like quests. The main questline in Torchlight isn't very long at all.

I completely disagree with you. Judging by the amount of work that obviously went into the development of Bastion as well as the few of the reasons (not excuses as you flippantly remarked) that kid_zomb gave, I feel that $15 is quite the sweet spot for this game.
I'll probably end up buying a copy for myself and for my wife despite both of us being poor grad students :D
The level of artistry and polish this game displays, coupled with the excellent reception so far gives me more than enough reason to pay the $15 bucks (twice possibly) for Bastion.
Otherwise, put your patience-pants on and wait for a sale. It's Steam, so I'm sure Bastion will get a sale a couple of times in the coming year!
Cheers!

Are you ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ or something? Torchlight is boring as hell because of how repetitive it is, click, click and click some more and that's all you do. It's not even a challenge on the hardest difficulty, and for a game with similar gameplay to Diablo, it lacks multiplayer, there's just no reason to play Torchlight if I can just play Diablo 2 with friends or better yet if I don't have anybody to play with I can play Diablo 2 alone. I bought Torchlight for like 4 dollars and regretted it after I played it for like 20 minutes.
Bastion looks like a great game and your arguments that it isn't is that they charge 15 dollars for it. Get a job, honestly, I don't get that much disposable income every week and this is still nothing for me, I'm going to preorder it because it looks like a great game, art style is nice, music is fantastic and gameplay looks great and I'm pretty sure it won't let me down once I finally get to play it.

You see i've been playing all the games on the summer and no summer sale, some got good grades on some sites but were no good really, Trenched, LA Noire, i also played outland and didn't like it at all. So i will try it to see if it's worth the 15 price point.
For 15$ it seems to be a reasonable price given the quality shown in the trailers and gameplay quality on the xbox demo. Only real issue is if the developers did a good job on the port from the xbox to the PC. I was hoping a PC demo would be available, since this game has been getting very good reviews.
Given how bad some 60$ titles are, i can accept 10 hours of gameplay if the game is good, not counting replay value, for a game that costs 15$ to buy.

I'm sure you'd shell out 60 to preorder a pile of garbage COD game before it even comes out, but 15 for something beautiful and unique, that's just unacceptable.

I think $15 is completely worth how this game looks. Kid_zomb shouldn't even respond to such a thing.
Edit: Section 8 Prejudice came out at this same price point, and this game has more content. And it's not a AAA developer. The reason for the pricing is that it's a new game company and they have created something unique. I'm just glad it's gonna be an action RPG, those are pretty rare these days, at least in the vein of 8/16 bit zelda. Miss those days.

15$ is an okay price, I agree. 14 Euros however, is far from an acceptable price (14 Euros is ~20$, that's 33% more!).
Other indie developers sell their games at fair prices for Europeans on Steam (like The Polynomial, AI War, Bob Came in Pieces, Recettear, Beat Hazard and Shank), why can't the devs of Bastion do the same?

There are very few games I've been as happy to drop $15 for as I was with Bastion (disclaimer though, I did get it on the 360).
From the moment I saw trailers for this game so many months ago, with its beautiful scenery and powerful narration I was spellbound. I think that the entire time I played this game, through to its completion, I was smiling the entire game.
I played through the game, loved it, and recommended it to all my friends. And the fact that I get to support a much smaller developer is an added benefit.
I sincerely hope those of you who are on the fence due to the $15 price end up getting it.

Limbo was (according to me) not at all overpriced. I loved every bit of the game, and honestly lenght shouldn't be considered when setting a price, the fun and awsomness of the game should be.

LoL, not mad. Just curious. I don't know why people feel the need to buy multiple copies of a game to support a developer. I mean, I have supported the dev by buying it on Steam already. If $15 was not enough support for them, they aren't asking enough money for the game. I'm glad you feel like supporting the developer excessively, at least with more support we can hope for more like quality games (I'm assuming based on play videos and reviews (even Yahtzee had almost all good things to say about this game)). But, I don't have the desire to pay AAA costs for this game like yourself, which is fine.

I have gotten console games, then got it on sale on Steam, then traded them in, but I haven't actually ever payed full price for the same game twice. As an example, I got Alpha Protocol for PS3, then when the steam summer sale hit, I picked it up for $7, which is the exact amount I got on trade in credit for it. So, I traded it out for a better platform, and it didn't cost me any more money.

2: Voiceover is the most annoying I have ever heard I hope it can be disabled as it adds nothing except annoyance to the player. It sounds like the same irritating guy from the UK TV Ads for MoreThanFreeman Car Insurance.
3: Gameplay is nothing special at all. Just the same old you have played on other similar child friendly RPG's like Zelda.
£5 is about right as it seems pretty amateurish to me the way the game is designed & put together. £11.49 is way too much as after beating it once unless you want all achvs your not likely to return to this ever again!
Even if it were freeware I doubt many PC gamers would bother seeing it through to the end..............

WeeMadBadger
08-11-2011, 08:36 PM
$15 is a perfect price for this game. If it was $10 that would simply be a steal. Hell, I'd pay $30 if there was a Mac version (mainly because there are so few games with Mac clients -- I'm looking at you Super Meat Boy... where is the promised Mac version?! -- and this doesn't look too resource intensive so I could play it on my laptop).
Besides this is PC release just after XBLA release, not many many months later as with Limbo and some other games. I personally think that if you release the game on a different platform few months later, you should lower the price. The if the game has been out for few months the hype simply isn't the same. For example, when Braid was finally released on PC (I think I got it on some sale... don't remember), I bought it, I played it and enjoyed it a lot, but I wasn't so hyped about it as I was when I first seen reviews.
Support indie and pay $15 for this game!

I personally disagree with your opinion. The 2D graphics are hand-drawn and that alone makes it special or at least stand out from the crowd. I also find that the use of bright colors makes the game pleasant to look at. I like the narrator's voice as well.
I agree that, the gameplay doesn't seem to be special, but then again there isn't really that many games that offer special or unique gameplay. All that matters to me is that the gameplay is easy to get into and it works well. I also think it's more enjoyable to play a game with simple gameplay than a game that has very complex gameplay, because the complex gameplay makes the game feel like work instead of pleasure.
I think the developers got the price right for this game, considering the market and customer habits. Customers today aren't going to pay 30-60$ for this kind of game, even if it was significantly better in all aspects than an AAA game. It's just not going to happen, because people expect games with this kind of graphical art-style be somewhere between 10-15$. One reason is for that is that the other "similar" games fall into that price range as well. Other reason could be that this generation's gamers thinks the game looks dated... after all everything is "supposed to be" in 3D in this generation.
In my opinion this game looks a lot better than some of the extremely hyped upcoming 3D games, but then again I have always preferred 2D over 3D.

I think once you play the game you'll realize that the price is more than justified. Recently I've gotten far more enjoyment out of "cheap" games than I have with full priced games. Super Meatboy, Lara Croft and Guardian of Light, Minecraft, Terraria, Majicka, Outland, Dead Nation, Scott Pilgrim are a few games that come to mind. Hopefully I'll be adding Bastion and From Dust to this list shortly.

I don't consider Bastion to be expensive. The Graphics aren't the best technically, but compare the (beautiful, IMO) art style to something generic like COD, or the ever ugly Gears of War games. Or perhaps another RPG like Dragon Age II with its "unique" art style. I'll also theorize that 10 years from now, Bastion won't look ugly, the same way Half Life is today.
Narrator and story looks nice as well.
The only point I think I might not like is the combat.. which I find to be the core of the game. Either it'll turn out fun.. or worst-case scenario, the combat will turn out to be a complete snorefest like Torhclight.
ah I stand corrected then.
Don't mean to be rude, but, you don't. That guy was an idiot for using a limited time offer as a comparison. What a dumb****.
Here in Poland since I have to pay with euro the game is actually more than a half of a high budget shooter. I will still buy it but its not exactly cheap.

3: Gameplay is nothing special at all. Just the same old you have played on other similar child friendly RPG's like Zelda.
£5 is about right as it seems pretty amateurish to me the way the game is designed & put together. £11.49 is way too much as after beating it once unless you want all achvs your not likely to return to this ever again!
Even if it were freeware I doubt many PC gamers would bother seeing it through to the end..............
Well your entitled to your opinion and the rest of us are entitled to think your idiot/♥♥♥♥♥ reject.
Mind you I don't say that becuase you didn't like the game, no not at all I say that because of how you expressed said opinion which came off like your average ED or Unencylopedia article

I just want to be sure of something. This is actually a topic complaining that a $15 game is too expensive? If you think this is too pricey, PC gaming might not be your hobby. This is less than an hours worth of salary (I think for most people here). The only thing I know about this game is what I read in a few short reviews and I'd drop $15 to check it out.

You have to keep in mind that people will complain about anything and everything no matter what. It's just a fact of life even if the developers and WB threw in a 500 dollar gift card to a store of your choice and made all your dreams come true as a pre-order bonus and made the game completly free people will still complain.
I just keep that in mind and ignore them.

I'd say video games in general shouldnt be your hobby if you think $15 is too much. Maybe worry more about living expenses.
To me a perfect price woulda been $20 so paying 15 for it is a great deal :D

My problem is it cost's £2 more than it cost on xbla. 1200 ms points costing £9 currently in uk.
normally i would expect it to be cheaper on pc since there are less licensing cost's

Just want to throw in my support for the $15 price. The game looks well worth that price, and frankly looks better than a lot of $50-$60 AAA titles out there.
Agree 100%.

You guys need to understand that the whole world is not America. I wish I could pay with dollars instead of euro, but alas its not possible. Despite the fact that Poland is not a country that uses euro. Also take into account that while the dollars is losing value, euro is gaining so for example Bastion, if I choose to buy will now cost me $20,5 not $15. Is that alot? No, but I do not like to pay more than other people for no good reason.
Still if for once a developer comes out and explains the price situation of America vs Europe, I will forever stop complaining.
