Their games should be free at this point
Ok but hear me out, devil's advocate, gaming is and has been one of the cheapest forms of entertainment for a long time, and production costs have increased significantly.
Market size has also gone up. 30 years ago and selling a million copies is mind-blowing. Today it's on the lower end of big game launch. Lower profit per unit, but many more units sold which really helps balance out the difference.
