In a 557-word post to end all posts, Gearbox boss Randy Pitchford fully lays out the "misunderstanding" over Borderlands 4 $80 comments

PR must have told him their forecasting was tanking. If he just said sorry I got carried away it would be over.
 
Randy, please, for crying out loud...

Why is he like this?
 
The best thing he could have said originally was nothing. The next best thing he could have said to follow that up would have been also nothing. The next best thing he can do from here is to say absolutely fucking nothing.

I would love to hear from the game directors, but instead it's all Randy Pitchford all the fucking time.
 
The cost of living now is completely different to the 90's.
80$ games is just unacceptable, maybe if you got a Elden Ring level gaming experience but let be honest here, Borderlands 4 is just another looter shooter, in a year or 2 you will found it with all the DLC for 20 bucks max, most publishers will jump on the 80$ price too, the question is when will it be 90$?
In less than 5 years? It will only result to make AA games thriving and is unsustainable for AAA games, we're all going to wait for a sale discount more often, publishers will loose more money because they need early buyers, stock holders won't be satisfied with long term sales, they need results now.

Between that post, lying about his relationship with Gabe Newell, this photo, and getting caught with a USB drive full of porn at fuckin Medieval Times idk how he hasn't just taken a background role at Gearbox.

Like Sid Meier for instance is the big boss at Firaxis, I have played a ton of his games, and I couldn't pick him out of a lineup.
Why are we fun policing Randy? Let him live his life bro. He ain't hurting anyone. (I'm assuming the USB full of porn is all legal consenting adults).
