Not a good enough ratio for them to give a shit tho

u/Apophis_36 John Marston Aug 08 '23

The ratio won't do much either way, they didn't even fix the gta remakes despite the backlash. Rockstar always wins unless investors start pulling out (if they are a company of that type), which isn't happening.

I really want to play the original RDR game. I obviously do not want to buy older consoles and I don’t feel like buying the Xbox Series S or X, so I’m gonna wait for a discount and get it on my switch instead.

u/[deleted] Aug 08 '23

This is what I’ll do most likely. 50 off the bat is daylight robbery but when it eventually goes on sale sub 20, I’ll get it.

u/TheRealWingnut Aug 08 '23

This is the route I'm going, as well. I never played the first and I'm really looking forward to it, but $50 for a straight port of a 13 year old game with no enhancements is highway robbery.

It was 20€ 8 years ago when I bought it at a store for my PS3. Anything above 10 bucks for a 13 y/o game is ridiculous.

u/JamesUpton87 Aug 08 '23 edited Aug 08 '23

These platforms didn't exist 13 years ago, a studio needed to put in the man hours to port the game to these new platforms.

While $50 is a questionable price point can we stop pretending that expecting fanboy charity labor from outside studios is any less ridiculous?

3

u/IamWatchingAoT Aug 08 '23

On no Earth does a port of the game cost a fraction of the manpower and hours to make a whole game. If a whole game costs 20 euro more than a decade after its release, there is no conceivable reason for a port to cost more than that.

1

u/JamesUpton87 Aug 08 '23

It costs less but still costs to port to entirely different architecture with only a fraction of the sales of the original.

You spend more than that at the pub just to piss away in less than 2 hours. Just wait for a sale if you expect charity work.

Product fanbases are always like this. They get their fix, or they move on, or whatever happens, and then the protests and voices are gone.

When I look at all of the exploitative, fraudulent game releases, or loot box schemes etc over the years, two things have been constants - a greedy company willing to exploit, and a crackhead consumer base without a backbone. Both are at fault, and both perpetuate the cycle.

GTA V was an unprecedented success, with Online making them ludicrous amounts of money every day, that's what happened. They've been trying to recapture that success, so far unsuccessfully, so now they're just releasing low effort projects that they know will still make a tonne of money, which they will then funnel into GTA VI in the hope that it will be as wildly successful as V was.

They hoped RDR2 Online would recapture that success, it didn't, so they abandoned it. No way they'd put resources into a full RDR remake/master after that.

after tax

There are no special taxes for used consoles in most of the Western world.

and game

Game goes for $8 every month on the official Store.

Not sure you should count the game in the first place since the user said "hundreds" for the console, spending on the game they want to play somewhere is obviously self-justified.

What’s a “native PS5?”

And also why would it be anything other than “full price?”

Pardon my questions. I’m a casual gamer and this whole controversy is swinging miles over my head. I was pretty stoked to see RDR coming to PS4, so I was confused to find such negativity from the sub.

Edit: wow… downvoted for asking questions

u/Von_Cheesebiscuit Aug 08 '23 edited Aug 08 '23

Most people are mad because there were internet rumors about a remaster/remake, and everyone got their hopes up and all it turned out to be was a straight port of the original game (with Undead Nightmare but without multiplayer or any improvements).

Breaking news Fanbase throws a fit after gaslighting themselves into thinking they were getting a remaster only for it to be a port.

Like seriously you realize they never announced it was going to be remake or a remaster right, the only people saying that were the people here and shitty clickbait youtubers.

Like when they actually do something bad like with the definitive edition call them out, but don't call them out for just releasing a port of one of their titles onto some new systems just because you made yourself think you were getting something bigger.

u/DONP4CHEE Aug 08 '23

We all love the game, but 50 dollars, nearly the same as retail price for a 13y old game that has nothing in the slightest of new features (bare minimum preference enhancements like 60fps) and is missing the multiplayer feature. People would be over the moon if it was- On both current gen consoles, ran at least at 1440p and 60fps (doesn't even have to be 4k) and was like 20-25 bucks, but nope. Rockstar has shown everyone how they really feel about their fanbase

-5

u/Peacefully_Deceased Aug 08 '23

...but it's one of the greatest games of alk time though, right?

The game has been $30 dollars with the expansions for $20 dollars, sold separately, on the Xbox marketpkace since it was made available through backwards comparability. Almost a decade.

The game still holds up very well and nobody actually gives a shit about the multiplayer. It was a novel side mode that was essentially dead within a year of its initial release. The only reason people are complaining is because it's not there.

4

u/Eglwyswrw Aug 08 '23

it's one of the greatest games of alk time though

So is The Witcher 3, which went from 60€ to 30€ within 3 years. 13 years later and best Rockstar could do with RDR1 was 50€? lol

And they sliced multiplayer off too. Technically speaking, is it even the same game? Every review giving RDR1 95/100 on Metacritic counted MP as a high, an experience you couldn't find anywhere else.

The game has been $30 dollars with the expansions for $20 dollars

The expansion has always been $10 on Xbox. And in that $40 package you get graphical enhancements and multiplayer. Now that is still one of the greatest games of all time... sold at a fair price. :)

u/Peacefully_Deceased Aug 08 '23 edited Aug 08 '23

There's more than just undead nightmare. Undead nightmare is ten and there's that other pack that is also ten. All the expansions total actual comes to $56, but I didn't count golden guns. :P

I'm not sure why everybody is suddenly pretending the multiplayer is suddenly one of the most important aspects of the game. It never was. It was a decent enough distraction, but the multiplayer pretty mich died in less than a year of its release. Pretty sure RDO has something to do with it being cut. Probably not wanting to cannabalise what's left of that audience, or just seeing the numbers behind the curtain and knowing almost nobody actually cares. They say they do, because it's been taken away, but they never actually did.

EDIT: P.S Witches 3 complete edition also retails for $50 on console digital stores.

2

u/Eglwyswrw Aug 08 '23

Undead nightmare is ten and there's that other pack that is also ten.

What? Mate there is no other pack worth $10. The only paid DLC is Undead Nightmare.

The multiplayer ones became free. The singleplayer ones were included in a new DLC called Compliments of the House, which built-in the base game... nine years ago.

multiplayer is suddenly one of the most important aspects of the game.

Because it is an important aspect. Always was. Maybe not to you, but its multiplayer is absolutely fantastic and losing access to it sucks big time. It is less content for big 2023 game cash

You are 100% drunk on copium.

the multiplayer pretty mich died in less than a year of its release.

Mate what the fuck are you talking about? I have been playing RDR1 since 2012, there are always active lobbies on Xbox. I can enter a lobby right now and find at least 20 people.

Pretty sure RDO has something to do with it being cut. Probably not wanting to cannabalise what's left of that audience

You are absolutely right... that and not wanting to bother with servers.

knowing almost nobody actually cares

Wait, is multiplayer "suddenly important" or does "nobody care"? Pick one argument lad.

Witches 3 complete edition also retails for $50 on console digital stores.

The $50 package includes 2 massive expansion packs, the smallest of which is 5x the size of Undead Nightmare. Not an apt comparision. The Witcher 3 itself was $30 and it is still several times bigger than RDR1. lol

You are defending the indefensible.

u/DONP4CHEE Aug 08 '23

I think it would have been nice to have a few bare minimum servers running for freemode, not progression system or anything, just load up a freemode game with friends and dick around in the wild west, people complain about rdr2's multiplayer bc of the paywalls and micro transactions, so if they just did a very simple version of that, I think it would have been great. And yes, a slight price adjustment would have been appropriate, maybe 30 bucks like it is now

1

u/Peacefully_Deceased Aug 08 '23

That $30 I'd just for the base game.

Servers cost money. Why spend the money for something players are barely going to interact with when RDO exists and the majority of the people who would be buying this already have that? And why would they care when RDO under performed to the point of abandonment.

Like, I do understand that some people are disappointed about the multiplayer, but let's not start pretending it was a core pillar of the experience just because it's gone now. The main draw has always been the single player narrative. So much so that most fans are upset that RDR2 resources went into the online mode at all instead of story expansions. I got some fun nostalgia memories of RDR1 multiplayer to, but the fact of the matter is that I only played it for a brief period of time with a buddy I haven't spoken to in a decade.

Meh, if you buy it digitally through Microsoft, the base game is $30 and Undead Nightmare is $20. They can’t charge less for almost the same product that they offer on another console. I want a remake too, badly so. My dream was/is going straight from the story of 2 to the story of 1 all within one game, but bringing it to PS4/PS5/Switch is still nice, I like that I’ll be able to play it on the same console as 2. Now I do wish they had a PC port as well, because I’d love to play on Steam Deck without having to emulate Xenia and all of that, but whatever.

$50 is a lot, but my base game on PS3 kinda sucks compared to the Xbox version, so I’ll get it for sure. Don’t know if I’ll wait for a sale or get it day one, but eventually. I don’t judge anyone either way with how they feel. Rumors led us on and this isn’t even a remaster, just a port, but it’s still a nice option for people who want to play on newer consoles. And RDR2 isn’t even 60 FPS on PS5.

Scam me how? They're offering a product, fully transparent on what it is and even providing a trailer that very clearly shows that it's just an upscaled re-release of the old game. If you buy that and expect anything else, that's entirely on you.

If I were to get angry about every single thing out there that didn't appeal to me I'd never stop fuming. It's a waste of time and energy.

Buy it or don't, but either way calm down and get over it. It's not that big of a deal.

At the very least they’re overcharging you.

u/RollingDownTheHills Aug 08 '23

So what? It is what it is and if I want the game at that price, I'll get it. It's just $50 for +20 hours of entertainment anyway.

just consume product bro! shut up redditor lmao

u/RollingDownTheHills Aug 08 '23

If someone's this bothered by the existence of a thing that is so easily ignored the issue is mainly on them. There's nothing controversial about this.

you are aware you can dislike something without being “bothered” by it, right? I bet you say people are mad when they express any disdain for something, don’t you? Scratch that — I know you do.

Just because you can't afford something doesn't mean its a scam homie 🤣

We can argue back and forth whether the game and the dlc is worth the price they are asking

But its far FAR from a scam stop lying because you mad

And tons of people are going to when this drops, Rockstar can milk GTA onto different gens of consoles and people still buy it, so there is definitely tons of people who are going to buy this, day one of release, because they want to have rdr1 on a more recent console.

2

u/JohnMarston-1899 Abigail Roberts Aug 08 '23

That’s what shocks me, they’re blatantly scamming us and people just buy it knowing full well it’s a scam. Because they “love” the company. It’s the same game

u/richiedditor Aug 08 '23

It's not a scam if you know what was promised, is what you get, most people would just boot up RDR1 on their old gen console, but not everyone has an old console nor a OG copy of RDR1. Rockstar just realized that GTA 5 isn't the only game people will buy for every console.

u/JohnMarston-1899 Abigail Roberts Aug 08 '23

If not a scam it’s still extremely overpriced it’s in no way worth £50

6

u/richiedditor Aug 08 '23

Oh it is, but there's a lot of people who would still buy this port even if it costed 60 or 70 dollars, I wish this was a remaster or a Remake, but no one should have believed the rumors, because now everyone is mad over something Rockstar never promised or talked about.

1

u/JohnMarston-1899 Abigail Roberts Aug 08 '23

I get people got too hyped, i did too, i can forgive that but charging £50 for the exact same game they made 13 years ago is absolutely blasphemy. It’s worth £20 at the most.

It’s a port of the Xbox version that’s actually cheaper on Xbox

Xbox also still has multiplayer, through granted there are lots of cheaters and hackers,

It’s literally just a quick cash grab, and when it inevitably succeeds, they will continue to drop the quality of their work if they can’t milk it

Look at RDR2, there was a lot of options for single player DLC or improvements, but we got nothing. RDO was left to wither and die because it wasn’t as lucrative as GTO.

All R* cares about now is how many shark cards (or the equivalent) they can sell

People are mad because this is yet another sign that Rockstar will only ever give us low effort ports of games we have been asking for remasters/remakes for years and will only support their big games if they can milk it for every last Penny

u/Cheesemeyo Aug 08 '23

It’s a beloved game and people want to relive it on current consoles and PC. it’s a port with maybe slightly better textures for $50 on a 10 year old console they couldn’t even bother to make it for a current gen that’s the problem it’s a blatant money grab and the more times they keep doing this like the gta remaster which was at least a remaster even though it was horribly done they are going to keep getting away with half ass content this game should be $30 max

-1

u/1JesterCFC Aug 08 '23

Looks like you dropped your dummy/pacifier wee man... This is what I mean, why are you so angry, either buy it or don't, I know I won't as I already bought it for last gen, like I said if it was a remaster, people would be lining up and saying take my money rockstar even though most of them will already own a copy on last gen.

What rockstar do with thier digital assets has no bearing on my life in the slightest, if people that own a ps4 want a copy then they will pay, I reckon this will sell really well on the switch

u/Cheesemeyo Aug 08 '23

I was literally agreeing with you if you actually read my comment about how if it was on current gen consoles but ok you’re the one who asked why are people mad and I gave you an answer

u/Allnite_employee John Marston Aug 08 '23

For 50$ I can buy a whole ass ps3 on kijiji this pricing is ridiculous

-5

u/[deleted] Aug 08 '23

Can't imagine being a big enough loser to buy a 13 year old game with less content for 50$, especially when the far superior Xbox version has all the content already and it's way cheaper 🤣

I kinda feel sorry for any dumbass that pays for it now taking that into account lmao.

u/ayyLumao Aug 08 '23

It is most definitely not cheaper to buy a whole ass Xbox and RDR.

-2

u/F1shB0wl816 Hosea Matthews Aug 08 '23

That was never the claim.

7

u/ayyLumao Aug 08 '23

No, but the claim doesn't make much sense since most people don't have both consoles, if you have a PlayStation, buying the Xbox version doesnt make sense.

-1

u/F1shB0wl816 Hosea Matthews Aug 08 '23

You’re missing the point. It’s a dig at whoever will spend nearly twice as much for a more subpar product. A better version exist for significantly cheaper and you’d have to be a fool to settle for this.

u/UnidentifiedAnimal0 Micah Bell Aug 08 '23

Still better than buying Xbox console or buying PlayStation plus stream couple years ago than this.

-1

u/F1shB0wl816 Hosea Matthews Aug 08 '23

It’s not though. You’re paying far more for something than it’s been objectively worst. You’d be getting fleeced. It’d be better to not buy it, not taking the most convenient option you can get.

You’d be better if buying a used 360 and an old disc. You’re not going to spending much if any more and the console will have potential for far more use than a teenage port and you’ll essentially be playing the same thing.

As well as it’s an old game. There’s absolutely no reason to rush buying it for this apparent full price that’s hardly a discount from a decade ago.

2

u/UnidentifiedAnimal0 Micah Bell Aug 08 '23

Yeah Ik game is a decade old to be 50 buck but point is price is still cheap than buying a 80 buck refurbished 360 that potentially have dead light of ring or 200-500 buck for Xbox series with 20-30 buck rdr1 depending if you want undead nightmare or not. Hell if you want better deal, Ps plus do discount every month where you can pick up for 20-40 buck. Even PlayStation sent email 📧 play of the month where you can redeem code for discount so therefore it cheaper than picking up Xbox.

u/F1shB0wl816 Hosea Matthews Aug 08 '23

Whatever justifies the terrible purchase right? That’s exactly what they’re taking advantage of.

u/TheTahitiTrials Hosea Matthews Aug 08 '23

You'd be surprised how many people have lost buyer's sense. I see way too many people saying they'll gladly pay $50 for this 13 year old game. It's reasons like this that corporations get away with the shit they do. No matter what, someone will eat the slop they serve.

Than they’ll bitch when new games are 70 as that’s too much.

Onliners and modders mad haha. Get on single player and play the vanilla game as it's meant to be played.

I think you've gravely misunderstood why people are upset

Lol, rockstar never confirmed remastered or remake. That on y’all for believing click baiter Mr boss fuck the world’s videos

u/Beginning-Pipe9074 Javier Escuella Aug 08 '23

Where did i say rockster confirmed it was a remake or remaster?

Where did I say I thought it would be a remaster or remake?

Where does it even say that i myself am mad about this?

I'm pointing out this dude is wrong

Yall just swinging at the wind and hoping something hits

Did you even read the comment I was replying to or did you see just see a comment and decided to attack?

1

u/JMAX464 Aug 08 '23

I will at some point. I’ve been wanting to play RDR1 to eventually replay RDR2 for a few months now. Couldn’t because it was removed from PSNow. I still hate R*’s shitty business practices though

1

u/ayyLumao Aug 08 '23

Take this with a grain of salt, return YouTube dislike isn't particularly accurate.

1

u/Sloth1015 Aug 08 '23

I wonder how many people will actually buy it? I mean I’ve got an Xbox so this doesn’t even affect me at all. I knew it was a stretch but man did I want RDR to have the same graphics as RDR2

u/[deleted] Aug 08 '23

Wait I thought yt removed the dislikes.

Thanks for posting this, I had to do my part and dislike it as well.

u/RDTechy Aug 08 '23

I am 90% it will be horrible, but is there a reason that we don't want people to buy it? Is it a case of 'it's gonna be GTA trilogy all over again for sure' or more just the case of the way R* does customer comms, you know, typical R* stuff lol

u/Disneycrazygirl Aug 08 '23

Nope, not planning on buying it. Still got the Original in the box with a PS3 that still works. Saving my money for a PS5

u/jdkwm Aug 11 '23

We were all totally disappointed with rockstar I particularly thought there would be a remake of red dead redemption but unfortunately it's just a port for other video games I was sad but to do what right and the rockstar.
