Bloodstained price? Wow.

Has anyone seen the price of this yet? I paid £34.99 when it first came out years ago. They are going too far with their pricing of this one. No way I'd pay that. That is a very crazy and greedy price to set.

Bloodstained: Ritual of the Night – Store – Stadia (google.com)

Hi @Doomster1971,

I must admit it is very pricey, but it is up to the publisher to set the prices.

Let's hope it get some discount soon. 🥳

@Doomster1971 I do agree the price is a bit high. Sometimes it's good to be patient gamers (we just had a huge sale recently!).

In this case it might be wise to wait until the game is on sale if you're planning to pick it up.

Google has hit its head if it thinks someone is going to pay 70€ for an Indie.

@Ivan I wait 7 months for a Sekiro sale, yesterday I buy them at full price, on steam is in sale to many times this year, maybe never got a sales. I buy fuĺl price but i'm angry

It's the 3rd game I've noticed that is more expensive on Stadia than any other platform. REV is £10 more and so is Ys IX: Monstrum Nox. Bloodstained is nearly double. I'm not so sure it's the publishers here. They can't have all got together and said we are going to charge more on Stadia. I'm suspecting that it is Google that is doing this. I was thinking of buying bloodstained a 2nd time, but on Stadia. I was expecting £34.99 like everywhere else. I'm not paying £59.99. I can't see them getting many sales at that price.

What's worrying me is that I want Google to succeed with Stadia. The platform is brilliant and works great. It's stupid moves like these that will sink it, though.

AAA games are already overpriced, many people can only buy one game in a year.

Hopefully it's a mistake.

I think I already found an article explaining with Stadia Games (or atleast some) cost that much.

Well, personally, I will not buy this kind of game for this price. Will wait for Stadia Pro Discount

It turns out that it was a pricing error after all (I think). It's now down to £34.99. I hope any dumb arses that paid £59.99, get a refund.
