I tend to have a blind spot for game prices. I don’t sit around waiting for the price to drop on a game that I want to play. I rarely buy very expensive games though, since I’m generally not interested in these games. So the cost isn't my main consideration.

I don’t care so much about ”expected length” either, partly because many games that are considered to be short seem quite long to me. But I have my limits of course. If the general consensus is that a game is very short, I’m always hesitant about playing it. But the price isn’t usually a factor in these cases either, since games like that tend to be rather cheap.

What greatly influences my decision on whether to buy a game is if it doesn’t have a conclusion. ”This is the first chapter of a planned series of 8 games” totally rubs me the wrong way. It’s entirely possible to plan an endless string of follow-ups to your game without leaving the first game open-ended.

GreyFuss: I also paid $50-60 for the Sierra games back in the day, converted to Swedish Crowns of course. That was A LOT of money back then. You paid $56 for The Beast Within. According to an online converter that would be $123 today. I can’t believe that I afforded it back then.

I agree, Mad.
