What’s your issue with pricing?
I don't have an issue with the pricing I was just explaining why I think the pricing isn't an issue (didn't really state this clearly) strictly due to economic pressures and giving just a little bit of background as to why. Because honestly like you said, games historically have been more expensive in the past. And they have lightned up on prices in the past two decades only to gradually increase them with tons of time in between for whatever reason they site.
Just another thought here but I honestly think the micro transaction economy we've gotten in games the past few years probably stifled the price increase just a little longer.
