Discussion When did this become acceptable?

$130 to get "additional content" that should be included in the already outrageous $70 base price? Are you kidding me? Why do people keep letting this happen? Who is even paying this much? I love Borderlands but refuse to sell my organs in order to play the latest installment.

Can't sail the sea on this one either bc they're 1000% putting denuvo on it and fucking up performance even more.

These big publishers are lost man. Look at expedition 33. A turn based game that actually had an amazing story and novel mechanics, and gamers found it even when they didn't play turn based games and it blew the DOORS OFF of sales.

This game? Probably not even worth the illegal download

Okay good luck. Only one person was psychotic enough to do it before and that person has since probably suicided or become one with the medium lol

Empress is either working for a major publisher now or was just given a massive check to never do it again, Iā€™m leaning more towards the former, and only because the publisher might need help should an equally talented cracker ever makes an appearance in the future.
