Not so much defense, more like "uhh, yeah, things cost money, inflation exists, welcome to the real world", and I can't disagree honestly. People gotta use an inflation calculator on old games.
This meme does have real "too late, I drew you as the soy cuck and myself as the chad!" energy.
No one is saying it’s a good thing, but crying about it constantly on the internet is really annoying. If $80 is too much, don’t buy the game. If you buy the game, then $80 was not too much. It’s really not that hard.
I'm honestly so so so bored of this. Like so bored. The thing is, most of the complaining is coming from people who have no interest in buying the game. It's just yet another example of the unfiltered Reddit gamer rage. Bored.
I think a lot of it is from teenagers who are going to buy the game anyway and really chafe at the extra $10. Also, Steam Deck guys who think there is a non-zero market of people cross-shopping a Switch 2 with a Steam Deck.
A lot of it is from young people who are relatively new to paying for their own stuff and DEFINITELY haven't been through any of the price increases before.
Anyone applying logic and numbers understands that, while annoying, it's perfectly reasonable.
It’s not about the game, you numb skulls. They’re testing the waters to see with how much they can get away with, soon they’ll be no more physical copies, so less cost for companies right, do you think they’ll lower the prices then ?
In two years time, games are gonna 90$ if we keep this rate, that’s 50% raise btw. It’s also 10% of the minimum salary in my country.
Such a dramatic take. Isn't it just one game and it's in Euros, not dollars? You people need to touch grass and stop being so upset about things that haven't happened and might not even happen. Don't buy it? Problem solved.
Ah yes because the economy is truly a linear progression, and it’s not like games just became 70$ a year ago, and now apparently 80$.
Surely they will stop there, because the people won’t buy the consoles or games at that price and corporations won’t abuse customers as they would never… oh wait
