This installment, which received a lot of criticism from both players and the press, had a piece of information that has weighed on it since it was released: <strong>its budget was supposedly 100 million dollars<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Now that the movie has brought the video game back into focus, this information has spread like wildfire among users. However, it has been <strong>Chris Baker<\/strong>, former Interactive Manager of this installment, who has come forward to say that<strong> this information is false<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">&#8216;It&#8217;s crazy how many people are saying &#8216;how is it possible that this cost so much!&#8217;, when obviously it wasn&#8217;t like that. <strong>It&#8217;s not even close<\/strong>,&#8217; he points out on his Twitter account.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\"><p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">My challenge to game journalists, just in time for Deadpool and Wolverine: Squash the insane rumor that the Deadpool game cost $100 million.<br>It&#39;s crazy how many people are out there all &quot;how could this possibly have cost so much?!&quot;&#8230;when it obviously didn&#39;t.

For this, he has made a long video explaining everything.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Making Deadpool Games (that never cost $100 million)\" width=\"840\" height=\"473\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/oGM4XZ0zOSM?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Where does it come from then? According to PC Gamer, <strong>this information may come from within the videogame itself<\/strong>. Accustomed to breaking the fourth wall, Deadpool himself talks about the budget of the game he is starring in, with an imaginary scoreboard of what it is costing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Although it is now common to see developments that cost over 100 million dollars, <strong>this budget was excessive for almost all productions developed at that time<\/strong> (early 2010s). After all, we are talking about an amount that only productions like Grand Theft Auto could reach, whose fourth installment, from 2008, cost precisely 100 million dollars &#8211; and this is confirmed. Therefore, it is confirmed by a game worker that Deadpool never reached this budget.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Chris Baker, Interactive Manager del juego, confirma que este no fue el presupuesto.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":9091,"featured_media":286418,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":"","wpcf-pageviews":1},"categories":[1018,1015],"tags":[],"usertag":[],"vertical":[],"content-category":[6823],"class_list":["post-286415","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-gaming","category-news","content-category-games"],"aioseo_notices":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/cms-articles.softonic.io\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/286415","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/cms-articles.softonic.io\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/cms-articles.softonic.io\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/cms-articles.softonic.io\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/9091"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/cms-articles.softonic.io\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=286415"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/cms-articles.softonic.io\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/286415\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":312006,"href":"https:\/\/cms-articles.softonic.io\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/286415\/revisions\/312006"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/cms-articles.softonic.io\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/286418"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/cms-articles.softonic.io\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=286415"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/cms-articles.softonic.io\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=286415"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/cms-articles.softonic.io\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=286415"},{"taxonomy":"usertag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/cms-articles.softonic.io\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/usertag?post=286415"},{"taxonomy":"vertical","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/cms-articles.softonic.io\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/vertical?post=286415"},{"taxonomy":"content-category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/cms-articles.softonic.io\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/content-category?post=286415"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
