  • The thing about demand/supply ratios is there’s also cost.

    AAA games aren’t coming down in sticker price without actual deflation. That’s just not how it works. That they were selling at $60 for so long is a function of cost reductions in an industry where the only thing left to cut is employee costs or the widespread adoption of AI dreck.

    If you want a game for less than $80 you’re going to have to buy games with smaller development scopes.

    That’s less important than noting that runners often spill their drinks while slurping it down, implying that for a moment in time Olympic runners were crossing the finish line with fish facials.
