Re: Witchcraft
Why would the value of porn be any different then the value of other forms of entertainment? Most good modern games charge about $50 for 10-15 hours of quality entertainment. If we take that as a fair deal, then a game that offers 1 hour of quality entertainment should cost between $3 to $5. Based on the reviews posted on this thread, these games aren't terribly high quality, so they should not be charged at full price.
That is my logic on the pricing.
I dont agree.
Good retail games are either much higher quality or much longer. We arent looking at Force unleashed here or something, content / size wise.
That said, other games on manix of similar content type, and often larger / longer go for the $10-$20 range pretty reliably. I would be hard pressed to compare it with a $50 game.
Even so, lets say this game is 2 hours, judging from what I hear, I think thats a fair, possibly optimistic estimate. then comparing it to a game thats 10-15 hours of content (and really, very very few retail games are that light on content), you are still looking at something 5-10 times smaller.
Overall, offering in the range of $5 for this game is not at all insulting, but really a pretty fair offer. 2 or 3 might be a bit low, but its not out of the ballpark.
Now of course the hassle of divvying out games with single transactions may well not make it worth it to sell it for $5, and declining said offer is certainly fine if thats how he wants to package stuff or whatever anyhow. But saying the offer is rude or insulting is silly.
Comparing it to commissioned work, as mentioned earlier on the thread, is just silly, since it isnt commisioned by the person. If Someone makes a nice piece of random art, they do not sell it for the same price they charge someone to make a nice piece of art specifically for that person. Its just not the same thing at all.
