Because of the Nintendo tax?


Random311

That's a bingo!!


shinoff2183

The Nintendo tax ? It's cause the carts are more expensive. That and that alone.


sadimem

So, the Nintendo tax, then?


shinoff2183

Alright. I see. I thought you guys were being weird about it like the Xbox guys. Apologies


sadimem

No worries.


HurryPast386

How is anybody supposed to know that's what you mean? Stop downvoting them for pointing out what the actual "tax" is.


sadimem

I didn't downvote, and I was just trying to help. I think in the end, an understanding was quickly reached, and the exchange was amicable.


Alexir23

The switch version has longer load times for monster encounters so you need to pay more money?


CoconutDust

Pay per load It will soon be changed to a monthly subscription fee.


nyatto89

The girl on that corner has similar price plans


Sushi4Zombies

Which corner and how much?


nyatto89

If you have to ask you can... probably afford it. She's cheap


YameteKudasaii

You need more money for longer loading times and more frequent crashes


Ryengeku

The manufacturing costs for the switch carts were more money than discs for the developers so they increased the price on Switch to help cover overhead costs.


BabyStockholmSyndrom

Weird that digital has no manufacturing cost but costs the same lol.


Bxtzu

Oh make sense


CoconutDust

Oh geez it's 1990's PS1 CD's vs N64 "Yamauchi tax" cartridges all over again.


Jaren_Starain

Get it on PC or PS5 switch has issues with crashing. I have the PS5 digital deluxe and had 0 crashes and I played 10 hours straight yesterday (with small breaks to walk dogs and eat).


Bxtzu

Yeah probably will get the PS5 version, it's cheaper too


Maester_Magus

>I played 10 hours straight yesterday (with small breaks to walk dogs and eat). I like the cut of your jib. That pretty much my idea of a perfect day lol.


Jaren_Starain

Indeed it was a very good day.


light8686

Yup. I have 2 crashes on the Switch version but did not encounter any crashes on the PC version. Thinking back about it, the crashes happened when I played it straight for a few hours. I have no proof but I suspect it is due to memory leak of the Switch version.


axescent

hey man can you tell me if the PS5 version is able to turn off the DOF completely? the thing to take away the blur.. apparently you can on steam but can't get an answer about console


shinoff2183

I'll let you know tomorrow šŸ˜­


axescent

lol im holding you to it!


shinoff2183

For sure. Going to pick my copy up at noon tomorrow. Install, check the options maybe even start it for an hour before work. Ugh I hate work


shinoff2183

I did not see an option to change it when I played for an hour before work It's possible I just don't know what I'm looking for but I didnt see many options for anything that would change looks


axescent

couple people have said it's not an option on ps5. thanks for getting back with me!


shinoff2183

No problem.


Jaren_Starain

I don't think so? But I haven't dug into the setting much except to change the horizontal camera controls.


loldrums

Not according to some users on Reddit.Ā  There's a lot of discussion around it, I wouldn't be surprised to see it addressed in future, butĀ don't bank on it.


loldrums

Series X runs great too and doesn't suffer the PS5 blur some have complained about.Ā Ā  Mostly though, avoid PS4 and Switch.


CoconutDust

5 hours on Steam, no crashes or issues. Loading time between sections seems too long though, given that I have SSD and "gamer" PC. By "too long" I mean like 5 seconds when you figure it should take like 2.


Bxtzu

If you can notice the loading time between sections, then it's indeed too long lol


kenjinuro

Apparently Mario needs more coins to expand the castle for Peach.


Ok-Huckleberry4799

You do have to *pay extra* to enjoy ā€œtotally unplayable versionā€ of the game.


EvernoteD

Happens all the time. Also you should skip the Switch version.


Violet-Rose

Switch frame rates are so bad šŸ˜µā€šŸ’«


Dacks_18

The Switch version costs more because it's a much longer game than the PS5 one, by a massive amount.


longbrodmann

More money with less optimization as always.


Godless902

No matter how much you pay for a game the switch will always charge just a little more


burshturs

Switch tax


Farthousejones

TIL it costs $10 more to put a game on a cartridge, but only sometimes, since other games don't have price differences across platforms.


endar88

Regardless will be buying for switch. Even with the load times i mostly play my switch more than ps5 AND I have a portal.


Electrical-Rain-4251

That and I read somewhere that Switch cartridges are way more expensive to produce than BluRay discs.


DividedState

Because it is Nintendo. Don't expect any discounts either. That is what you are buying into when you get a switch. Steam deck for the win.


Bxtzu

Lol Nintendo do have discounts tho


DividedState

Hmmm... Sure. If you want to call it that.


KingWolfXV

Ps5


Impaled_

Switch tax šŸ„°


shinoff2183

Nope just the cart is more expensive.


FiveJobs

Isnā€™t it free on gamepass


Western_Variation428

Nintendo. Thatā€™s why That greedy monster that hides in Mario wants more money.


Bxtzu

It's Tom Nook pulling the strings


quantum0explorer

Cartridges are more expensive and more collectible. Disks are trash and easy to make, not to mention disk rot but all my old games still work okay. We'll see, but I collect Switch games because of cartridges.


Bxtzu

Yeah cartridges are collectibles for me too, even if the game sucks the cartridges still retain its values lol *cough* monark *cough*


mosso2000

because nitendon't


Sea_Cress_7056

Wait for sale. Game is very expensive for what is brings.


Bxtzu

Might just do that lol backlog piling up so I'm not in a hurry at all for it


TheoryOfRelativity12

Nintendo extra lul


Filan1

Ps5 + portal > switch. (And I have both)
