BG3 received a lot of possitivity for releasing a massive game for half the price of starfield. But it seems apparent that negative reactions are stronger than possitive ones for most of us.

bg3? baldurs gate 3? that was 70 bucks and not on game pass on release so it was way more expensive than starfield

Dude where I live BG3 is $40 and starfield 75 ($100 with the 'expansion')(steam). At least on pc. What's your situation?

BG3 has been 70 dollars since release, unless i missed a sale. meanwhile starfield was on game pass on release which is like 20 bucks a month, so if you play starfield for 1 month then cancel you had essentially paid just 20 dollars for it. im on xbox though, not steam, so that may be why ours are so different

Damn that's quite the difference, those where the standard prices on pc, not sale. $70 is a lot.
