i’m not the one who positively claimed there was no direct relationship, take your issue up with that person.
- Comment on Elden Ring's player engagement is through the roof: 45% of its Steam players have played for 100+ hours 2 days ago:
definition of “direct.”
a direct relationship means the variables increase or decrease with each other, but not necessarily in the same proportion.

- Comment on "I don't know" how much Borderlands 4 will cost, Gearbox boss says, but it had "more than twice the development budget for Borderlands 3" and "it might be" $80 like some Nintendo and Xbox games 2 weeks ago:
you can’t use straight 1:1 inflation to infer what the contemporary cost should be of digital products like video games, movies, tv shows, music etc. There is no physical asset to tie the individual product value to. There are of course production costs, but those are the same whether you make 10 thousand copies or 10 million.
The reason inflation hasn’t hit video game prices is because the video game market has grown exponentially since the 90s. They make more money by selling low margin at higher volume, compared to high margin and low volume. It’s all about maximizing that total profit, not individual sales.
Publishers can try to charge more, but it’ll be up to consumers if that actually gets them any more money overall. only time will tell.
