Lmao $85 (Aussie dollars) for what amounts to a texture/model mod lmao

Holy shit, I got Baldur's Gate 3 recently on sale for less than this lazy remaster of a 19 year old game.

Gamers are lapping this shit up too. What happened to the rage people had for the Switch 2 being expensive?

  • holy fucking shit lmaooooooooo

    no chance. straight piracy or utilising some sort of forex scheme to get cheap game pass

    • on the other hand, i also remember the dark days of N64 cartridge pricing here

      • Remember when an Xbox 360 game could end up being $120 at launch at EB games? I sure do.

        • Take a guess at how much (my mum probably) paid for Conker's Bad Fur Day?

          • With or without inflation? (I had a Sega mega drive and skipped the PS1/64 Era of games so I'll probably guess it wrong anyway.)

            I want to say...$80?

            • ONE HUNDRED AND TWENTY NINE AUSTRALIAN DOLLARS AND NINETY FIVE CENTS LMAOOOOO

              i think the AUD was particularly in the shitter at that point

              adjusted for inflation by Australian CPI (2001 - 2025), that's $242.31 AUD today. As of right now, that's US$155.42

              Edit: yeah, just got this historical FX rate and Trade Weighted Index data from the RBA and the AUD fucking collapsed from Jan-May 2001 against the USD, Euro (didn't think that existed then but idk) and Pound, we went down to 48 US cents and almost under 34 pence for a few weeks there. Yen didn't matter with BFD being published by Rare
