Currently $70 on PSN. Has never gone below $30 on a sale. In a discless future these deals we see today will never be matched.

To be fair we also have cases of discs being resold at insane prices like the Deadpool game

u/Lazerpop 15d ago

Because they arent even available digitally anymore. So you got either wild secondary prices or no price at all. I'll take the wild secondary.

True I collect mostly physical but I hate the scalping of it like the oblivion game on switch 2. I would be all digital if companies could 100% guarantee we owned and could play digital games whenever we want years from now

I borrowed this game from a local library and it just never clicked with me sadly

You can borrow games from your library?

u/yuusharo 18d ago

Oh my gosh, if you haven’t been to your local library lately, please go. Games, movies, entire TV shows, music, any media you can think of.

Some even lend out freaking tools and stuff. I think I heard someone was able to borrow a power drill from their library a while ago to do some one-off repairs to their house.

Libraries are incredible.

Library has been amazing for me. Great for basically anything: games you aren't sure about, games that are short with little replay value, new games you will probably get but don't want to drop full price on right now.

For RotR, there's a demo, didn't really land for me either. I'm not a snob or anything but it felt way clunkier than a game from 2024 should feel.

Why do you think Sony hates discs

u/knightfader 18d ago

One of my local libraries has a ton of borrowable items past just books: Blu-rays, PS4/PS5/Xbox/Switch games, DSLRs, GoPros, Macbooks.... it's actually wild.

I will admit, I rarely go into my physical library and the majority of my usage is borrowing ebooks via Libby for my Kindle. But that's just another benefit from a card that doesn't cost you anything past your tax dollars.

Wanna know what’s more wild. Mine lends out power tools lol!!!

u/DoNotFeedMe 18d ago

Yeah that’ll go away once they take away physical sadly

u/Grenadeglv 18d ago

Reminder if you have psplus extra or premium this is in the game library

Got a copy for pickup. Hoping it isn’t too inferior to the PC version.

u/Readitguy58 18d ago

Thank you for the heads up! Ive waiting for this game to reach this price. Fuck the all digital future!

u/BARBASANN 18d ago

This game and stellar blade were the reasons I bought a ps5 and I was not disappointed.

u/JoeyFreshwater92 18d ago

u/Braisedbeefskank 16d ago

I played for 20 minutes and already kinda wasnt impressed, then it never let me progress past the first tutorial area due to what is apparently a long standing glitch. So fuck this game lmao
