Hitman 50% off on Steam until November 23rd :)

I guess I'm the only one who feels kind of ripped off supporting the game while they put out the episodes then seeing this.

I'd understand if it was like 6 months after all the episodes came out but Hokaido just came out

Going "full murder" in Watch Dogs 2 is very unrewarding. Spamming the gang hit ability really breaks the game. They should have put in a cooldown that can't be bypassed.

?? the game came out in like march.

There has been so much to do in each one of those missions, i actually feel worse for the people who are JUST buying it now. It is almost an overwhelming amount of content.
I bet most current buyers wont bother to see fully what each level has to offer

I mean, the same thing happens with TellTale games, don't they?

The game did not come out in March. Paris came out in March.

Not this quickly.


Also Telltale games aren't usually full price like Hitman was

Fair point, it just demonstrates how paying for content in advance (be it season pass, pre-order, early access, etc) is always anti-consumer.

It's definitely bullshit.

Or should I say, another pile of bullshit dumped on the episodic adopters.
 
this is going to be the series where I get absolutely sick of Vinny doing voices, isn't it

didn't telltale teach you anything about buying seasons of games at launch

I don't see what's so terrible about the game going on sale for black friday. It happens all the time, and people really should have expected it now that the full season is out

Wrong about commas, wrong about everything
I put 70 hours into Hitman. I don't feel ripped off at all.

Think we'll get a Gilmore Girls podcast when the reboot comes out? I'm gonna say yes. I know how much the duders secretly love the show.

Telltale is (or at least used to be) the worst with this. They've had games you could get for 50% off before episode 3 of 5 is even out. At least people who bought this early got to do the elusive targets.

I just heard the phrase "it was a work AND a shoot" in my workplace.
I dont know how to feel

Do you have the power to fire the person who said that? If yes, then do so.

If no, then make it your 2017 goal to rise to a position within your workplace in which you can fire them.

Win/win.

I put 70 hours into Hitman. I don't feel ripped off at all.

The way I look at it is "do I feel like I got an extra $30 in value by having purchased Hitman at the start of the year rather than waiting until now?" And the answer to that is 100% yes.

Lol, thanks for the laugh guys.
I'm trying to figure out who it was, dont think it was my department.
I must now try to rise through the ranks using politiking and/or nepotism

It reminded me of the time someone posted the smug laughing Seth Rollins gif in our slack chat and others asked who that was...and I dared not answer

Early buyers have had loads of extra content like elusive targets etc though.

And the luxury of getting the episodes as they come out and playing before those paying in the sale.

Don't see the issue here to be honest.
 
I remember the Bioshock Infinite Season Pass went on sale before any content had been released for it. That learned me to never buy one of those at launch.
