It's so weird to me that video games are the one area where a whole bunch of people have decided that it's logical to demand that prices forever remain what they were when I was ten and getting a new Super Nintendo game.

It's so weird to me that when other areas prices have gone DOWN when costs have decreased that people would defend prices going up when even game makes admit that they're making more than they have in the past.

Games are cheaper than ever while development costs are high than ever

Production costs are cheaper than ever and profits are higher than ever

Where production costs used to be $5 for a cart, they're now under $1 for a disc and less for digital (which doesn't require packaging, transit, etc)

And more people buy games than ever before so not only are they often making more money on each sale, but they also have more sales

And then they're upselling DLC, season passes, mtx on top of if
