    This is a $70 game with a ‘season pass’ and the ultimate edition is $130. That’s hardly big mac price.

      For me it was €79 (gotta love that VAT).

      Still, considering the hours of entertainment I’ll get out of it, the price-per-hour feels reasonable to me compared to other forms of entertainment.

        What can I say, value is subjective, but at least to me it’s not what I would describe as Big Mac pricing.

        What about compared to other video games?

        Edit: even putting hundreds into rocket league its still a better deal, so how does this game add up to a good deal?

          If this game takes me 40 hours to complete at a price point of $70 that’s $1.75 an hour to be entertained. That’s not bad value at all IMO. And seeing how I’ll prob take longer doing side missions and such I see that going to under a dollar an hour. Not a ton you can do on a rainy day that will keep you entertained for less than that.

          It seems to line up with a lot of other open world games for me. I’m not saying this is an amazing value, I just don’t see it as a bad value.

            Yeah thats fair, although ubisoft tends to slash the price of their games very quickly, but thats not to say its still not worth it now for you.
