There are two kinds of Indie developers. Those put their life's work into a game they sell for $5 and those who put 5 minutes in a game they sell for $200.
Don’t forget the third kind, the complete enigmas who put out the most surreal avant-garde experience imaginable for free, then just fade out of existence
Someone once made a video that dug a bit deeper into these low effort high price games. And it pretty much came out that its usually part of a bigger system with key resellers, and how well reviewed it is. On most key seller sites, you can buy a mystery key for like a dollar and you get a random game that might be worth 30 dollars, with these shit games thrown in that are highly reviewed by friends, or alt accounts of the developers themselves. The high price is there to prevent other people from buying this game, and give it a negative review, which I think disqualifies them from being put into the pool you pull from when you buy these mystery keys. Edit : the video was called "These Games Cost Over $2,000... and they're all shovelware.".
@@shteve.mp4 yeah there's a whole number of -punk styles, Cyberpunk is usually futuristic dystopia with humans mixed with machines (think Deus Ex), Steampunk usually has Victorian era costumes, airships, a lot of early industrial stuff with, duh, Steam engines... (for example, Bioshock or Arcanum, a lot of anime including some Miyazaki stuff). Clockpunk is basically the same except it's focused on clockwork, so the robots are mechanical (like in Wild Wild West), and there's lot of other variations like Dieselpunk, Atompunk, Biopunk etc.
@@shteve.mp4 stuff like Bladerunner are part of the cyberpunk genre. The ideas are usually about evaluating the value of humanity amongst advancements in technology and late stage capitalism.
This kind of thing happens at Walmart, too. Those rollback prices that you see items discounted from... often, they never did cost that much. Much like these devs, they never intended to actually sell the product at a high price, they just want to show you a big "SAVINGS" sign and sell it to you for the price they aimed for all along. It's disingenuous smoke and mirrors designed to fool the buyer into thinking they are getting a huge deal. Very old trick.
someone might've already commented this, but it could be one of those steam key scams. you buy a bundle a steam keys on a website for a "good deal", for example it'll say you get 100 $60 or more games for like 20-50 bucks. but all the games are low effort garbage with an insane price to seem more legit and be technically not a scam. weird little rabbit hole! great video!
as a gamedev i can say for certain that they spent less time making any of their games than you did making this video. also cyberpunk is just a word, it can't really be trademarked by itself.
@@shteve.mp4don't buy the bundles please. that's the reason these accounts exist. they sell inflated prices to get ppl talking and then lump the games for literally pennies bc you owning their games and playing them makes them count towards being counted as a legit game on steam. and therefore earning marketplace cards
That scream sounds familiar, but i just can't put my finger on it, either they stole it from breaking bad or they cut off william shatner yelling "KHAAAAN!"
What they are doing isn't illegal in America but in European countries giving a product a fake price and then using its discount price as the real price is against the law which is definitely what this project is doing.
i feel like steam should start banning/taking games off their platform that have such negative reviews, these type of "games" don't do anything for the gaming community
This is why greenlight was a thing, as the biggest online games store front it kind of falls on steam to keep misleading products out of their site or risk another game market crash
devs have to wait months to change their games price when they accidentally make it too expensive, but these "devs" can somehow constantly change their prices. steam is a joke. EDIT: also I looked into the cyberpunk trademark. it appears to only be trademarked for mobile games. so they appear to be in the clear for that.
this is like the equivalent of those bootleg Game cartridges that have a thousand games on them, but like a huge portion of theme are just the same game and they all have stupid titles like Super 99 Bros 6: the lost world 2
I used to do steam queues daily but after those showed up I look at my queues less and less, mostly only during events. During the winter sale event I saw at least two of these scam games in every queue even though I try to immediatly put all the games from the publishers on my ignore list. Feels like those scam games pop up quicker than I can ignore them. So annoying!! It discourages people from going through queues and discovering indie gems that way.
As a future project, I wish to begin a game. Though that's for the far future. But seeing people have to ability to create something for the world to see and just abuse this skill is beyond frustrating and just sad. I hope these games (and creators) would be banned, honestly.
I already abused this Steam refund rules, I just turned of my internet and played the game for 10 days, when I got the final I just turned WIFI on and got with 2 minutes of gameplay so I could get the refund
As a proud owner of 3D Puzzle Battle Royal I can say that most of these games are given to you in G2A game bundles. Which websites like G2A are known for supplying their games through credit card fraud so the idea of money laundering is not the wildest idea
Could also be a "fake sale", where they claim that it's on discount when in reality that's just the regular price, manipulating people into thinking they're getting a deal. *It's illegal by the way.*
The big scam here is for key scammers. They go to a keys site that has mystery boxes for keys, jack the price, and sell that key where it's placed in a mystery box valued highly. Like for games that are 20-60 dollars. They flood the site with em so they get included in the mystery boxes.
how they profit is they sell the keys of these games and make them high price so no one buys these games and reduce the user rating. For example G2A. They sell keys that are -high price -high user rating -random So a random poor guy buys that key only to get this game since it meets all the criteria above. Buy hey! that's just a theory
i highly doubt that the game targets achievement hunters we usually play games like zup!, qop, learn to die or seen, which gives achievements for the alphabet and symbols
Cyberpunk itself is a genre of something like fantasy or western so that cannot be trademarked. Howver CDPR has trademarked the name to protect their game assett but have stated they do not intend to use it offensively so realistically u could get away with useing the word cyberpunk in the description or name of your video game as long as its not vlearly u trying to rip off CDPR So u could make a game called Cyberpunk war or some shit and be fine but making Cyberpunk 2076 would land u in some hot water
Sad times. In the old times, games were made with passion, it was hard to fix the games, yet they had quality. Nowadays, it is rare to get a good game, even in times of huge jump in quality and accessible patches
this is explained in another video, the thing is these games get bundled when u buy mystery keys that you can buy at steam. The games are "valuable" and gets downloaded if someone buys a RANDOM KEY PACKAGE LIKE: ruclips.net/video/S6icMOFdMiY/видео.html&ab_channel=Deej Games like these will be valued "high" (because price is high). And they include them in these random key packages, i saw once a video about this trick and the people who are making games like this earn good money on these practices.
I don't do *dugs* (if you know, you know) but I feel like... Whatever that game is, is exactly what you'd see after having the STRONG STUFF Edit: Cyberpunk is a genre, so, the word itself is probably not copyrighted
I kinda like the dreamcore asthetic they were going with buuut, thats the only thing they had going for them The gameplay, the character design and especially the Pathfinding of the npcs, theres not even collisions to the npcs they phase into the walls
The insane prices with the discounts for a fraction of a price is likely to draw in people with a fake discount (in reality the game costs not even as much as you oay for it...). Interesting video!
We need a way to bring this to steams attention. The base price of any game being higher than $70 should just flat out not be allowed. . No legitimate game costs more at launch, (excluding deluxe or premium editions obviously. )
They sell for cheap and boost price after purchases, it does something to the market. Someone made a video about what this does but I can't remember exactly what it was.

Fun Fact top selling of these games have "Steam still learning about this game" or "Profile Features Limited" so achievments hunters will never buy these games 'cause achievments from these games aren't counting towards other achievments or cannot be place in a showcase gallery.
I DO actually happen to be high and was more terrified that you mentioned watching the video high than the bright colors lol apologies if this makes no sense this comment took wayyyy too long to type
Kinda reminds me of some games I saw on the Play Store back then, basically a hello neighboor clone with spongebob (or at least the first version), they took it down for using actually licensed spongebob models (one from probably a psp game and the other one was the dehydrated spongebob from bfbb), then they would released other one but with "original" models (and with *original* I mean they made ORIGINAL characters *dnot steal* , that were pretty ugly-looking and off-branded versions of spongebob characters such as an sphere headed spongebob with hat and moustache or a mouse Sandy) then they would re-released the same game changing some models.
Steam shouldn’t let ppl go price games above a certain threshold without a human being checking it. Like it’s ridiculous how someone can price a game for over $4000 and steam just goes yep nothing weird or wrong here
10:57 you can actually play a game more than two hours and still refund it i for example refunded a game wich i played for 2.6 hours i think everything under 3 hours is fine.
The absolute max I would pay for a game is $150 and that's only if it's a really good game with some sort of special edition benefit, $400 for a game is pathetic
Hede has been one hell of a character to me, their games vlog up 90% of my discovery queue, i've tried to block every game of theirs but they just keep churning out more and more. I assume thisis on purepose
I don't think the game's filesize has any relation to its price. For example, I think most people would rather spend $60 for Super Mario Bros. Wonder (3.5 GB) than spend $50 for Gollum (30 GB).
I recognize that skybox. It's part of a surreal skyboxes asset pack on the Unity Asset Store. It's free. The skyboxes in it are of the nicer free skyboxes I've seen, certainly more interesting than the usual thin clouds in a blue sky. I wouldn't expect to find it in a game that's genuinely worth $100+ though.
im glad that someone is talking about these, I personally haven't seen anyone talking about how weird these "games" are. It's a shame that steam cant really do anything about it.
the dev dont honestly think people are going to pay that ammount. im pretty sure they made it expensive so when people buy "expensive" steam key packs they get a bunch of crap like that
I found this rabbit hole on my own recently (I actually saw your review on the circus game lmao), I personally thought that since the positive reviews came from largely the same handful of steam accounts, which were all real accounts owned by real people, those accounts got hacked and forced to purchase these asset flips for ridiculous prices so the “dev” could get money. Those just being paid reviews makes more sense, though
Oooh that's why there are games that expensive on steam, its because they know there is a chance a RUclipsr will actually buy it. I respect all who take that risk.
you cant trademark the term cyberpunk because its also just literally the name of the genre. It would be like if i were to trademarket urban fantasy just because i made a game called urban fantasy 2020
To anybody wondering, yes I refunded the game. I wasn't boutta let my money go like that 😭. Also, the developer has started paying for fake reviews so put your tin foil hats on with me and don't fall for the positive ones 👽, though they don't even sound remotely real.
that's even worse because of course nobody will buy the game to just write negative review, and the ratio of reviews will be extremely not fair

WOW! Excellent video -- I didn't even know this type of thing existed. Excellent looking out.
8:01 oh, i know that map asset. Was thinking about turning it into s VR world on CVR.
That ain't The Amazing Digital Circus, that's The Perplexing Binary Carnival 💀💀💀💀💀💀
Ah steam and asset flips, a match made in heaven.
00:37 chibi kaguya if pomni's hat. So funny
Oooh that's why there are games that expensive on steam, its because they know there is a chance a RUclipsr will actually buy it. I respect all who take that risk.
you cant trademark the term cyberpunk because its also just literally the name of the genre. It would be like if i were to trademarket urban fantasy just because i made a game called urban fantasy 2020
"im sorry if you're watching this video high"
