I feel the need to remind everyone that when I was buying NES cartridges in 1988 and 1989 at the ripe age of like, 6, they were like 39.99$, and SNES were usually 50$, unless you wanted something fancy like Secret of Mana where the cartridge had some special snowflake chips in it and shit. Entire birthdays’ gifts were combined into a single game I could buy, once a year at most.
I don’t know of literally anything else that cost 50$ in 1989 that only cost 50$ today.
But with everything else getting god awful expensive, it’s hard to stomach yet more things getting expensive too. I’m just pointing out that gas was like, 89c a gallon at the same time, so… yeah. I just find it wild that games haven’t really gone up in price alongside everything else over the same time period, it’s kind of super unique in that regard.
Yanno, I have always loved borderlands, but randy pitchford is an absolute fucking tool.
I even bought one of the diamond editions that came with a physical damn loot crate and tons of goodies with BL3, so it’s not like I’m not a fan. But still, how fucking stupid do you have to be to say it like this? What a stupid jackass.
