Alexa, set a timer for ten years and call it "watch another two hour long lore explanation"
The steam page also reveals 40€/$ base price, up to 90 for golden pro max epic preorder edition.
More expensive editions give you cosmetics and 6 months/1 year of season pass, at a rate of 2 new heists available every 6 months. I'm not sure I like this but given the alternative is the current 150€ worth of DLC for pd2 maybe it's not that bad? Please?
It also lists "in-app purchases" on the sidebar which doesn't bode well, but I hope overkill learned from the initial skin releases and it'll all be just cosmetics (Which still fucking sucks but at least the playing field is level).
Heists/missions are only needed for the host if they follow previous games. I personally hate dlc weapon more because of powercreep and such
I have no idea what is a reasonable price for a game like this, but the price seems a tad bit expensive since I don't know what to expect, and the fact that the game will probably lack content for the first few months (Or possibly never without the season passes).
I'm still excited to see a much more optimized and refined Payday. And although I don't like DLCs, I think how Payday 2 does DLCs is pretty reasonable. I just hope Payday 3 does something similar and doesn't do a subscription/microtransaction based model.
$40€ seems like an appropriate cost for an AA game.
