Add all of that together with the ridiculous international pricing of QB on PC, - R1300 for a PC game with no extras? Seriously MS, WTAF?? - and "Microsoft's' most successful new IP in this generation" could have been an even bigger success for them.
I love how they advertise that as a huge achievement when they've had like 2 new IP's this gen. Anyhow, last I checked the Store price has come down to R999. That's still a bit much imo, I'll be waiting for it to be around R500.
That price drop must have happened in the last day or two, but yeah, agree with you that R999 is still a touch too much for my taste at this point. Also, I wonder how the few that bought it at R1299 are feeling right about now.
