The boss of the Randy Pitchford gearbox says “I think they could charge $ 200” for Borderlands 4 “, you cannot find a better value in the world for any type of entertainment”, then adds: “I want them to give it, because then everyone would play it”
Gearbox’s CEO, Randy Pitchford, has been arguing with people online for some time on Borderlands 4 costs – he launched $ 70 on September 12 – but he seemed happy to continue talking about dollars with Gameradar + during day 1 of this year. For him, Borderlands 4 offers a lot of value for his money.
“Damn, I think they could charge $ 200,” said Pitchford, but “I want them to give it, because then everyone would play it.”
“This is not how the business works,” he continues. “But the value is there.”
Pitchford has been personally involved in many public discussions out of $ 70, $ 80 – with various degrees of an angry borderlands fans. He is therefore convinced that these conversations “honestly do not matter as a whole. The sum of each conversation that has ever occurred on social networks on the price of a video game, and each article that has ever been written – in truth, you add that, and that will not change anything with the result.
“At the end of the day, when I want something, and I have the impression that what they are asking for is right, I will get it. If I don’t want something, I won’t do it. Or if I think what they ask for is not just, I’m not going to do it. All the conversation does not matter, at the end of the day, that’s what it is.”
“The truth is that when you talk about borderlands,” said Pitchford, dragging a little. “Like, I don’t know how I can say this and sound as if I had a humility. […] Borderlands 4 is incredible. It is absolutely an incredible game, and the value is undeniable.
“You are watching all the old borderland games, we have people who spend thousands of hours in the Borderlands. If you think about it in more terms that could have been spent against entertainment time, you cannot find better value in the world for any type of entertainment.”
Randy Pitchford and his “great personality” may have caused controversy with all these jokes of $ 80 borderlands 4, but his boss would not do it otherwise: “I still love him to death.”
A slight update was made at the framing of past controversies, but the article appears otherwise as initially published.
