Path of Exile is a free indie game and better than 99% of big studio games. I'd easily be willing to pay the normal 60ish $ price for it.

Depends how much time I'd spend playing it. There are some really time consuming ones, for such I'd pay ~$30 if it was good.

Depends on the reviews. If it has very good ones, then i'll be willing to pay, maybe $20 tops.

Interesting answers. I myself would like to see games without pay-2-win or in-game purchases. Hope any indie-developers see this thread.
Thanks for answering! Smiley

I wouldn't Cheesy

I probably wouldn't either... no time for games lately.  Cry

it's not about the games mostly..

well, I don't have much time either but I don't want to waste money on games as I can get them for free..

it's a crysis over here  Undecided

Can't say I blame you.

But if I was a developer, I'd try to follow other business models if possible, like League of Legends and its ilk.

it would matter to me if it was indie or not. Some of the best movies are indie.


how good it is, is all that matters!

The amount of content which I don't have to pay because it's a DLC would encourage me.

I would pay around $20-30 maximum for a indie game.

Depends how good the game is.

If it's really well made and brings back the magic of the old school games that I miss then easily $30-40

Sure, if you charge any higher it has to be something as big as Skyrim realistically, big companies and publishers often think they can get away with charging that much because of their brands but once gamers get burned enough they'll do everything to see the companies burn as well.

I want to see more Battlefield/Planetside 2 style games without the unlock and pay to win crap.

I would pay good money to see that but what developer cares about its customers?

Depending on the type if it's the same old I wouldn't even waste a $ on it.

As the title says, how much would you be willing to pay for a well made indie game?
And what do you want in a game?

This is by the way not really market researching (I can't code anyway), I ask because I'm curious! Smiley
