GTA 6 is gonna make the gaming idustry worse because now every other AAA dev is gonna sell their games for $80.
>>741786465They already do broIt's not 2018 anymore
>>741786465A remake for Persona 4 is going for $70 right now
>>741786465They already charge more than this if you want to play on launch. 'X Days early access' is just the release date and you can pay less if you want to suffer spoilers and/or people having advantages over you.
they will try to*. remember that outer worlds 2 was supposed to come out with a bloated $80 pricetag too until they realized nobody would buy it and backed off
>>741786465That will just result in the same shit as the constantly worsening ports and DRM of 7th gen.People will just stop buying them, because price perception is a major part of how people decide to purchase games if they aren't [BRAND] fanatics. Releasing cheap games frequently without being so subpar that you tank your brand is how you make games.>But inflationHas never had an effect on any part of game development and the potential returns on games have only risen due to larger audience sizes.>But it costs so much to developThen spend less, don't waste 10 years on nothing.>But old games used to be more expensiveOld games partially shipped with graphics coprocessors aka GPUs, I don't see an RTX 5090 being shipped with GTA IV, I don't even see a game in the box.
