I’m glad at least one person in this thread knows how inflation works. However, as I’ve recently researched, games started costing $60 in 2005, which lands us at 90$ in today’s money.
That would be fine if wages had kept up with inflation. They have not, at all.
I don't think it's a game publisher's problem if you haven't had a raise in 20 years.
