BOLTgamer Posted February 1, 2012 Share Posted February 1, 2012 I mean I love this game and all, but it took them that much to make? I mean, you would've made so much more money from making another Star Wars movie like the cinematics based on the old republic era, or making KOTOR 3 and 4. I'm in love with this game but if it took them this much im sorry, this game doesn't look 300million dollars! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm in love with this game but if it took them this much im sorry, this game doesn't look 300million dollars! I find it odd how the price tag in the last month has gone from $80 million to $100 million, $125M, $150M, $200M and now $300M. If price tag keeps escalating at this rate Bioware would have been better off building a real Death Star and extorting the entire planet for all it's money.

photoheathen Posted February 1, 2012 Share Posted February 1, 2012 200m dollars or not, this isn't worth it! I don't understand what you're saying here. Was it your money? How does the budget affect you in the slightest? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CadaKai Posted February 1, 2012 Share Posted February 1, 2012 200m dollars or not, this isn't worth it! Did you spend the money? Did Bioware come to you and say man we really want to make this game but wee need $200 million dollars? If the answer to either of these is no then why do you care how much they spent?

Cybrdroyd Posted February 1, 2012 Share Posted February 1, 2012 so lets say 1 million subs paid $60 per copy, that means they only made $60 million? Doesn't seem like a good investment on their part. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

archifikoss Posted February 1, 2012 Share Posted February 1, 2012 My sources confirm that Uncle Scrooge put every last penny apart from his lucky dime into the game. So 300 million is obviously fake. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bhorzo Posted February 1, 2012 Share Posted February 1, 2012 so lets say 1 million subs paid $60 per copy, that means they only made $60 million? Doesn't seem like a good investment on their part. 0.5 million people paying for 12 months is $90 million Plus the initial $60 million. That's almost breaking even. After a few years I'm sure they'll see a profit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr_Crueak Posted February 1, 2012 Share Posted February 1, 2012 wasn't even 200 mil, no one knows the only official number was 80+ million. Any other number we ever heard have come from third party sources not first party! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
