info0 and his never ending appraisal for the "god" game.
________________________________________________________________
Moving on, $60 for a game is pretty much the standard. Even back in 90's video game used to cost from $20 - $60 depend on the title (expansion, addon, AAA), excluding taxes it's not much different than today. I'm talking about MSRP by the way.
I doubt the game will be on sale anytime soon, Japanese publisher are notorious for valuing their IP highly.
Or just get it from UK Gamesplanet, for £22.49 (roughly around 38USD). I don't understand about these
"no Steam, no buy" mentality, and never a fan of digital distribution because as you can see, you actually don't save a penny. Instead, depend on your location you might end up paying more (transaction charge, interest, tax etc.).
Thanks to regional pricing, the price isn't unified. Some people might paying more, some less. Refer to
this site for Steam pricing comparison.
If you can't understand the chart, UK folks are the biggest winner, with £29.99 (equals to $48). While Brazilian have to pay over the odds with R$179.90 which equals to $78. Of course excluding the VAT and other surcharges.
