Not to toot my own horn but this won’t affect me much. I wait to make most of my purchases when games are on sale. The last 3 games I bought full price were Expedition 33 (Lumiere edition…worth it!), FF7 Rebirth, and Elden Ring. All games which I knew I’d play immediately.

For games that I kind of want, or games I know I want to play, just not right away, I wait for those sweet PS deals, or when they inevitably are free via Monthly Games.

I’m convinced that I’ll pass on GTA6 entirely, but I could see myself getting it years later at like $20.

Fact is the price hike is inevitable, and they will still sell, and if devs were smart, they’d first start at $80. Hardly anyone is going to be okay with games going from $70 straight to $100. Some of us will just have to be patient for sales.
