    Right it’s the development costs … Not the CEOs making more money than any point in history, with a pay gap that’s just insane, executive making dumb ass choices…

    Can’t be that, must be ‘development costs’.

    Never mind that today’s world, we have some of the best toolings available for software development. Making it easier and more approachable than ever before and it only keeps getting better. And you don’t need to hire people that know assembly to make a video game… You can do everything and high level languages.

    Stop letting the PR machine from the corporations influence you.

        Holy fuck you really love defending capitalism!

        So EA missed your radar? Or Tencent, Microsoft, Epic, Sony, Take-Two, or Ubisoft… Just to list a few on top, there’s certainly more. Rockstar already trying to say $100 minimum for GTA6.

        I’m sure some CEO will send you a thank you card though. Maybe Bobby Kotick!
