Borderlands 4 found itself in hot water after studio head Randy Pitchford implied that a "real fan" would buy the game, regardless of whether it launched with an $80 price tag. Of course, Borderlands 4 ended up costing $70 anyway and one Baldur's Gate 3 developer can't help but think the backlash was all for nothing.
After the announcement that Borderlands 4 will cost $70, after all, some people speculated that the backlash to Randy Pitchford's divisive comments actually led to the shooter's cheaper-than-expected price. But Larian Studios' publishing director, Michael Douse, says the theory is "extremely unlikely."
