Even at 25% off, a $70 game is still a ripoff (files.catbox.moe)

Unpopular truth, but $70 is still underpricing a game if you consider it hadn't gone up with inflation since ancient times. Still a ripoff, but so are box office tickets to a blockbuster movie or an expensive dinner at a fancy restaurant. I just don't partake.

Really, if you wanna get angry, get angry at gacha games taking advantage of gambling addictions and fooling a generation of gamers into thinking it's ok to pay $300+ dollars to a live service that offers worse value than anything sold only once. Oooof
