38 Studios head Curt Schilling elaborates on Kingdoms of Amalur: Reckoning online pass quest lockout

Jan 28th 2012 5:25PM (Joystiq)
I have two issues with the industry bashing used games:

1 - I buy used games to try the series or the type of game. I bought the first Uncharted used late into it's release. Enjoyment caused me to purchase the next two, new, for $60. Mass Effect 2 was also purchased used. So great, that i will pay $60 for 3 in a couple months. What publishers fail to realize is that $60 is a lot of money to experiment on if you like something. I have spent more on new games because I have purchased used. I do not believe there is a strict only new or only used consumer. We all double-dip and it betters the industry.

2 - Discouraging used sales is a slap to capitalism. If I can sell my house, car, couch, guitar, etc, giving the same features to the new user, I should be able to sell my games in the same manner (sorry, the couch doesn't come with cushions). If I pay $60, I own every piece inside that case and should have the privilage to transfer that to anyone else I please.

The annoyance level reaches peak when people say they should not make MW not make BF. Competition (should) increases quality. Remember the days when sports games had competition (NFL 2K vs. Madden, NBA 2K vs NBA Live, etc)? Our lives are better with both. Sure arguing is fun, but some of the polar comments of "this game sucks" are just fanning flames. I say, Go "Call of Battle: Modern Field 3"!

Sports games are the same way. Complaints of lack of innovation fill the comments sections and everyone complains about yearly releases all to get a dollar; yet we all buy it. I think the publishers want to innovate, but fear alienating their loyalists. Seems the same with this game. If it's not broken, don't fix it.

@xreadmore - Correct. Prices because of inflation among other influences double every 10 years.

I would be fine with this if it gave me 3-5 accounts to use this on (like apps on my phone and my antivirus software). It would pain me to have to buy a second or third time because my wife or our son want to use a feature or play online (a la online pass).

Garbage is one of the best bands of the 90s/early 00s. Their music paved the way for a lot of other alt bands especially with female leads. Listen to their music and you will hear.

I would feast on the brain of the next person I see. Let's see...that's my wife...no, not her - that would be rude. Ooo, Brett Favre, no, that's gross. Hmmm, Chevy Chase. Not bad. I would be laughing a lot at first and then become bored and then sad. Wait - that's his career.

I'll bet it will be in 2011 - announced at E3 and have a holiday release. If I am right, point back to this for my unending future predicabilty credibility. If not, then, hopefully no one will remember I was wrong.
