"I don't know" how much Borderlands 4 will cost, Gearbox boss says, but it had "more than twice the development budget for Borderlands 3" and "it might be" $80 like some Nintendo and Xbox games (www.gamesradar.com)

The industry makes something around 190 billion per year, they will be fine without raising their prices to 80$. I ran that in my head considering that I worked in the industry myself. Devs aren't paid enough not because we don't pay games enough but because these companies are run by greedy fucks. Don't feel bad for them, buy games when they are on sale or buy indie games. Games won't go anywhere be reassured.
