I'm not gonna go on another diatrab here but basically more games are sold now than in the past, electronic versions of games save the publishers about 30%, but none of that gets passed on to the consumer, and sadly salaries for game creators/testers have not actually increased much.

Net result is games should have actually been dropping in price slightly over time (for physical copies) and they could sell digital for 20% less right out of the gate, and still make more of a profit.

So instead of bumping prices to 70, they could have dropped em to 55$ for the physical copies (which deals with sales tax most places), and dropped the cost of digital all the way down to $50 (and still made more of a profit from digital sales than physical).

That would have made sense...but nope, lets raise the prices $10 across the board instead!!!

Thank you for making my decision to get every single freaking game that comes out on PC on that platform even easier (And it already was pretty easy tbh).
