This was really fun, I did it on three characters and enjoyed it every time! Would love to see it return in some form next year! And for at least some of yearly events have something similar.

100%, and the fact that a large (if not majority) of people heavily consider the value at 70, despite being in-line or lower than prior prices with inflation, is also an obvious sign that the workers on the ground aren't getting paid nearly enough to keep up

I wouldn't mind paying 70 bucks if I knew the money went to the actual developers and employees, not the C suite.

The problem is we have an industry where the regular employees get as little as possible and then are fired.

I still remember when execs tried to trick us into thinking games were gonna be cheaper to purchase on digital storefronts, because they didn't have the cost of manufacturing the physical editions.

You could probably count the amount of games that have actually done that on 1 hand.
