I don't know anything about this game or it's predecessors. Is it just a fantasy RPG or what's the hype all about? How is it different from other fantasy RPGs?

To me, video games are never worth 60 dollars. Ever.

Was a video game worth $40 in 1995? Because if you paid that back then, that's the equivalent to $80 today.

So yea, paying $60 sucks, but game prices haven't kept up with inflation at all. Not to mention the $40 game in 1995 took a dozen guys months to create, while a $60 game today takes 5+ years and hundreds of people.
