They’re right that retail prices of AAA games are too low to make a profit. Which is why they’ve turned to microtransactions and dlc. However, the price of such games is too high, which means the budgets and profit expectations are too high. With the quality of games coming out lately, even $60 is too high. I can’t imagine spending $70 or even $80 on a game.
