A lot of valid reasons for the price to be high but that's still a lot of money. $80 for a game hurts. It went from a must buy early this year when I heard about it to ehh... Maybe I'll see what happens first.
I haven't bought a game in years. I don't own a switch, but I get to play the games for it I want.
At some point, I realized "supporting the devs" was just rhetoric for useful idiots. Most of the money goes to their landlords and delivery apps, anyways.
It's a dog-eat-dog world out there, people. Don't let consumers on the internet convince you to spend money on things you could be getting for free.
Use your brains before your wallets.
It’s not gonna get cheaper and they probably incorporated tariffs.
