I think some of the reviews are hyperbole. Always trust ACG to bring things down to earth and he gave it a 'wait for sale' rating:

It's also a timed exclusive and coming to Gamepass next year so I'm just going to wait for it to be £0

Does look pretty good, though I've still got Dishonored 2 gathering digital dust so hopefully by the time I've finished that the price has dropped a bit.
I'd be happy with the £60 price tags if I knew that I was getting the entire game and that content wasn't going to be leaked out for another year or so to wring a bit more cash out of it. But I can understand that they need to recoup more money (though some publishers go a bit further I feel) and don't want to have it all up front for fear of driving away consumers. Given that I was buying SNES/PS1 games for £40 back in the 90's, £60 for a game today really doesn't seem over the top.
Though I'm not exactly bursting to be front of the queue to play new releases so normally pick them up when a sale email reaches me. I think MGSV was probably the last AAA game I picked up on launch.

I’m watching a livestream of fighting cowboy play deathloop currently and immediately googled to see if it was coming out on the ps4 (currently not slated for release), and I did think I should buy a ps5 for it.
It looks good, scripting and dialogue so far are excellent, and despite me not being a fps type bod the premise intrigues me.
Quite fancy Deathloop, but I am struggling with £60 price tags.
plus a £20 bump for "deluxe" edition, which has 3 weapons, 2 skins and a soundtrack, seems excessive.
