Why NBA 2K is
NBA 2K21 MT increasing their prices and they will eliminate it
The reason we're visiting 2K do it is because they have NBA 2K that appeals to people outside of the hardcore games sector and that is the exact same reason they will get away with it. I have seen many are saying they will boycott NBA 2K, it won't really make a difference. The individuals that are purchasing NBA 2K probably don't know its going to be expensive on next gen and they most likely don't care. The majority of them do not understand how rampant and egregious micro trades are. It is only a matter of time before other do the same. To be clear, I think games should raise their costs, I don't believe NBA 2K ought to be the one to begin. Let me know what you guys think!
I wouldn't have had a problem with them raising their costs in the event the ps5 copy was backwards compatible with PS4, that's my only problem with the entire thing. Theynumbers and have estimated that they'll make the most money this way. It is shitty and not consumer friendly. But companies value money over customer good will. Costs have become during this generation in most countries. America is the last holdout. Not correct. $80-$90 was the cheapest you can find a new release for, but these days you'll be able to grab every AAA brand new release at $70 on launching day.
It will be interesting what EA do using their sport games FIFA, because its popular. I believe they would get a whole lot more backlash than 2K when they took a route that is similar with FIFA. I do agree that the games that are non-hardcore could definitely get away with more. We see that in relation to money and microtransactions. EA tried something similar by restricting next gen updates of Madden towards the close of the year and people were rightfully upset. I believe they would have been the first to raise their prices had they not gotten backlash for trades previously.
2K will eliminate it. Got ta understand, NBA 2K is one of those franchises which people who do not play video games and video games, buy. People will purchase a console and only purchase 2K and play with with it the whole year until the next edition. It will happen, and odds are, they'll happen. 2K is merely the one to show their hand. People would be just as mad if it had been the brand new Assassins Creed game which demonstrated the increase lol.
I don't have an issue with 2K doing this. I don't think it mattered what studio did it that they went to find warmth about it. I believe your argument about it being a casual game is the reason it's perfect to be the first to raise prices. I've friends who only play with sports games and they did not seem to care about the cost change. The folks up in
Buy MT 2K21 arms about this are hardcore players who won't even touch NBA 2K. I'm also someone who doesn't care they they are charging for NBA 2K on next gen because I think if you are changing engines or anything important like this then it is a new game and needs to be paid for.
