eaglei3 04/02/25 12:12:44 PM #10:	Yes. Video game pricing inflation still lags behind everything else in the world, so I will still buy games at these prices. Especially when I look at what I get dollar per hour entertainment wise of the costs compared to other entertainment I consume. <cite>eaglei3 posted [p:984564304] in Are You Wi...

masterpug53 04/02/25 12:13:12 PM #13:	At this point I only seem to buy a new game like once every few months, so an extra $20 is a drop in the bucket.

Enclave 04/02/25 12:14:29 PM #15:	Tariffs are not the reason since digital games won't be cheaper. Tariffs are much more likely the reason for the systems entirely too high of price rather than the games. --- The commercial says that Church isn't for perfect people, I guess that's why I'm an atheist. <cite>Enclave posted [p:984564342] in Are You Wi...

M-Watcher 04/02/25 12:21:54 PM #20:	Sure. Good thing the first $80 is one I'm not interested in. The game I'm actually interested in is confirmed $70, and the other games of interest will likely be $70 too. It's not a thrilling prospect but my purchase of special editions and such means I never really had a clear cutoff point anyway if I'm sufficiently interested enough. --- Currently playing / Backlog / Collection: https://howlongtobeat.com/user?n=M_Watcher <cite>M-Watcher posted [p:984564491] in Are You Wi...
