Is there actually "people" unironically defending em at this point?

Legit asking

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.

the fact its the "real world" (pretty much a shitty one) doesnt mean its a good thing

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.

You're right. It's not. People are pissed that they're being priced out of something they used to enjoy.

How many games do you fucking buy that 20 bucks extra per game is pricing you out of the hobby???

It is same as people complaining, that there are no good/original movies anymore. Dude, shop around, so many great games that are dirt cheap. Hell, game pass is like one Nintendo game in a year and you have hundreds of games to chose from.

I'm personally doing okay for the moment. My coworkers in lesser paid positions who already have to help coordinate each other's schedule around the days they need to work their second and third jobs may not feel the same way. It won't be long before neither of us do either, if this week's events are any indication.
