CD Projekt CFO does "not see a place for microtransactions in single-player games" - Lemmy.World

what really bugs me are fighting games with dlc characters. i know fighting games arent as profitable, but twenty years ago you could unlock every character by actually playing the game. locking content behind paywalls are a slap to poor gamers. that’s on top of a $60 price tag
$70 is the new $60 because fuck you that’s why

Oh stop, games have been the same price for decades, it’s not surprising they’re seeing a small price increase after so long in stagnation.

In good companies this is passed along to the actual devs making our games, which is something we should all support

Has the distribution gone up though? If the quantity of games being sold has increased the companies are making just as much even though games are “cheaper.”

Imo. That’s the big argument in this debate that doesn’t get discussed. The reach has increased so prices could come down as more units are sold and the company would get the same amount of money.
