There are people who complain for those U$10 more in games that will have price reduction, but who don't complain about games that remain U$60 all the time.
ok that's neat and all but nah, all the money goes to recoup the marketing losses for games made by a brain-drained industry flooded by diversity hires and outsourced labor. frick you, frick this bait thread, and frick AAA games.
They're screwing themselves with how they monetize games. The only way they can sucker people into buying games full price is by hyping it beyond any realistic expectation and then when the players are disappointed they lose that customer for their next game.
What that causes is most people just wait for a few months to buy games since >They're cheaper >They're more complete >They're less buggy
Which means no matter how high they set the price, they're still gonna sell most of their units during a sale months down the road.
Nintendo is the only ones that see this apparently. Based nips.
How much did your salary go up from 2008?
How much did the cost of living went up since 2008?
You see Anon, using this shit "adjusted for inflation" argument becomes absolutely irrelevant when you factor in more than just that.
Everything has become more expensive, food, electricity, tech etc... Yet wages have been stagnating for the most part.
So when I see a game sold for 80 euros a pop, yes, that's fricking egregious.
Yes
Wrong. $50 is too much for a video game.
anything over 12 bucks is too much for a video game
1$ is too much for modern videogames
it is, also who the frick determines the value of money?
Jews
>ITS DA JOOOOOOS
Have sex /misc/cel
Shut it you moronic homosexual.
(you) the player
Purchasing power of $60 from 2008. is comparable to $120 in 2019. and around $180 today.
20-30 americanoos buckeroos is where I start to really consider if a game is worth not pirating
For me is 15 buckerinos and it really needs to be a good game
Otherwise I get it for free on google

Minimum wage in 2008 was $7.25
Minimum wage now is $15
>Minimum wage now is $15

Depends on where you live I guess. It's been $15 an hour where I live for maybe six months now.

Stop living minimum wage then, not our fault you dropped out of high school
>Dude just make more money
Also don’t forget to buy the dlc for an additional 49.99 plus tip!
I pirate every game I play, just dark souls games and rdr2 are games that I paid
Shut up
game = luxury
you don't need games to survive
deal with it
I hate economics.
I would pay 70 if day one dlc and micro transactions weren't a thing
>$1 = $1000 TRUST THE NUMBER MAN
I honestly won’t spend more than 20, that’s like two or three meals or I can get drunk
not paying 70 for a game because i don't pay that much for a movie or an art.
they can give it away to the streamers for all i care.
Super Nintendo games used to cost $80 dollars on release.
Inflation has doubled this year alone. Beef prices have tripled. Games should be $100-120
