They'll get the idea when it sells like shit, don't worry.
But IMAGINE if it sells well!

Not comparable at all.

Cash grab. You can pick this game up on Steam for $19.99. I've seen it on sale for much less. Remasters sell pretty well at that price though so I can't really blame them
Because there are people who will pay full price. so the strategy is charge full price up front and then they cut the price by half a month later.
Just like Skyrim Remastered. And Arkham Remastered, And the Bioshock collection. And so on.
Dick Kick'emThat Duke Nukem tax
$50 dollars and the fact its called the "Full Clip" edition and not "Full Magazine" means I'm not buying it.
Doesn't matter what they sell it for 'at launch', the market will self-correct its actual worth in a month or two.
Skyrim was also a much bigger game, came with 3 expansion packs, could use mods and was $10 cheaper.
Excuse my ignorance but what does Gearbox have to do with this?

$50 is one thing. I understand people expecting it to be cheaper in terms of MSRP.
The "loyalty discount" doesn't seem terribly realistic an expectation. Is there any precedent for that in this situation? Is there a 1:1 example where a remaster came with a loyalty discount?
I have question regarding the complaints about the full price. What makes games different from other media (music, movies) that when a remaster is released some games should not charge full price.
Whenever you buy a cd that was remastered or buy a movie again in whatever new format has become mainstream there is no loyalty program. Of course games are more expensive than the stuff mentioned above but still... I honestly would like to know why games are not worth it. And no one is being pressured to buy it day 1.
I understand that with the PC version there is an expiration date with GFWL (this is the version I own) which is something to be considered and since most of its sales where on digital platforms a loyalty discount could be given since it's quite easy to detect ownership.
Having said that I do appreciate when a new version is given for free to owners of the previous release.
It's not even worth half of that. What was Pitchford thinking?
Which you also got for free from owning the Legendary Edition on PC. What's your point?
Let's see, you got Darksiders 2 Deathinitive for 80% off or for free if you owned all the DLC, Skyrim (see above), Darksiders Warmastered for free (and they launched it at 80% off as well, for everyone). Tons of examples really.
I'll wait until it's $15.
But why??
I honestly don't get it. It's a remastered version of 6 years old game with no major new content. (One character and few maps if i am not wrong).
In years when most developers are giving Remasters for free to owners of the original versions, and pricing them no higher than 30$ Gearbox Software decides to price Bulletstorm 50$. That's how much brand new or few weeks "old" AAA games cost today.
Your opinion? I am personally not supporting and buying this.
Were those on console?
