I'm talking about Persona 3. How did we accept this situation, could you explain?

How is it that nobody is bothered by a 18-year-old game being sold for 70 dollars?

It's not an 18 year old game? It's a remaster of an 18 year old game.

It's literally a remake. It's not the same game.

Persona 3 Reload is not the same game as the original.
Persona 3 Reload is a full remake.

It's not a Remaster but a Remake. I'm waiting to buy it just to see if they censored or toned down the fanservice of the original.

If people buy it then we can't control much else. I'm pretty damn burnt out on persona so I have no horse in this race one way or another but ultimately the market will decide

It's a remake. Some parts look dated. Some parts look fantastic.
Unless my ears are broken though, I don't think they re-recorded the OST at all and it sounds like my ass run through a 40 year old casio keyboard. For $70 they should re-record that and have a toggle when the music is such a large draw for these games.
I don't think it should be $70 either. And it will likely have lots of DLC like most Atlus games. They are known to severely gouge their fans on pricing, DLC, repackaged Royal editions. I will never forget Etrian Odyssey HD.
Game has very small environments too broken up with loading. I guess that's now fine again for a 90 rated RPG.

Are you serious?
Omg before making a thread like maybe try educating yourself on the subject first
When you were pushing for Silent Hill 2 and Morrowind Remakes, did you expect them to be free, or sold for less than full price?

I'm more accepting of a remake of an 18 year old game than a remake of a remaster of a PS3 game (The Last of Us). I am 100% ok with remakes of games that came out during the fifth (PS1, N64, Saturn) and sixth (PS2, GameCube, Xbox, Dreamcast,) generation of consoles.
Remakes and remasters of games that came out during the 7th and 8th generation of gaming is bullshit.

What a weird thread when Reload pretty much has everything redone from the original asset-wise.
There are waaaaay worse remasters to be upset about.

When I see those who advocate for such practices, I want these companies to implement even more aggressive policies. I might take a look at it via Game Pass, but from what I've seen, there haven't been any crazy changes, just a bit of Persona 5 paint slapped on it. What can I say, you deserve it lol.

Because Persona fans regularly take it in the ass and beg for more. This is the series that pioneered releasing “DLC” as a separate full priced game that’s incompatible with the original.

My desire for a remake doesn't mean I want it to be merely touched up with low effort akin to a remaster and sold for $70.
You should have shared the survey I filled out in elementary school; my favorite game was Mario.

It's already €50 at my local retailer, the Xbox version that is cuz the PS5 is out of stock.

That's why I'm waiting a full 2 to 3 years till I buy it just to see if it's toned down in fanservice, if they will release The Answer/Female Protag/basically all the content from FES/Portable that's missing, see if I can use mods to up the sexiness/uncensored mods, and get it for cheap

No, what they're doing to Silent Hill 2 is much worse than that, and it's going to cost $70 for an inferior version of a 7 hour long 23 year old game.
At least P3 Remake is a marked improvement across the board from everything I've heard.

It's more about rather you think it's worth it, for some people, it is. I totally get why people think it's worth it. It looks pretty. And probably has some gameplay updates, and new content (I'm guessing)
For me, it isn't. That's arguably an acceptable price for a Persona 6.
I will be playing the PS2 version when I get the chance
I don't like remasters of games that look perfectly fine and visually distinct to this day. I will be playing a non-updated version gameplay wise, but that's fine.
But that's a me thing. Everyone knows their wallets worth.

I do have to agree with you, even though this is my first time playing P3 and loving it. Its not a big difference but to me when you slap $70, thats first party AAA exclusive prices. Third party remake,nah.

I'll criticize that too then, what do you expect me to say, I don't understand. I shared this because the price of this game caught my attention, and I'm asking when we got used to such things. Also, it seems that they may have made more radical changes in that game(for better or worse); I think remaking a three-dimensional game is more difficult.

Red Dead Redemption 1 on PS5 is the bigger offender. Absolutely ridiculous price.
Okay, first, your on the arguing side of persona topic, you knew you have to acknowledge who's on persona side regardless of how bad the topic is and exclude these people before asking the normal ones who actually makes sense, my opinion is vote for your wallet, that's the strongest spear you own and could wield it however you want, but you can't ignore those demographic who doesn't want you to argue about their favorite games.

I'm saying you just don't like Persona 3 and you love Silent Hill 2, which is totally fine, but there's a reason you made this thread about one and not the other.
At the end of the day, things are only worth what people are willing to pay for them. I ain't paying $70 for P3 but I know some very happy longtime series fans right now who are.

Personally
I'm tired of remakes especially of Japanese games since I would rather have a new game in a JRPG franchise than a Remake

You're wrong, I love both. Silent Hill 2 isn't out yet and I don't have to make a thread about every wrong doings in the world. Just saw this game's price and opened this thread, that's just it, there isn't any hidden agenda here.
The thing I am against is that they are exploiting these people.

If your hardware embeds 18 years old technology, you don't have to justify releasing 18 years old games.

Coulda fooled me.
Nobody's being exploited. The fans are grown adults who can choose to buy it or just play the original.

Because it is not an 18-year-old game. It is a remake of an 18-year-old game.
There is a difference.
Besides, if you have GamePass you don't have to pay anything extra for it...
