I was wondering if 30 bucks is a fair price for this game. I know that the port is very much bare bones and that Rockstar cheaped out on it but right now the game is selling for 40% off and I was wondering if it is worth it for this price or shall I wait more for deeper discounts? Like the summer sale is coming but I doubt the game will be even cheaper then.

I think that depends more on your income level. Is $30 a lot to you?

It's about £22 to me and whilst I'd say the game is a lot of fun (I played through it in 2019, I think, on my Xbox One X) I personally wouldn't pay that much for it. However I spent a long time poor, so I'm rather price sensitive even though I probably don't need to be quite so hesitant any more.

Yes, I understand and I can definitely relate to your situation. I have never played it before and was thinking I can give it a go and if I don't like it, simply refund it

In that case you should go for it as you'll know pretty quickly whether it's fun for you.
