@Gatitasecsii inflation + bigger games + bigger teams + bigger budgets = higher price.

i'm of the opinion that games need to be drastically scaled down and a lot of the industry needs to be cut with a focus on smaller, tighter experiences. that's kind of what indie games are for, though.

as far as nintendo goes, i guess we'll have to wait and see if $80 is really worth it for mario kart or not. it doesn't seem like they have shown that much of it. there could be another situation like tears of the kingdom where the depths weren't talked about at all, they were just in the game for players to find. personally, i know i will get $80 worth of mario kart world either way, just because i am a huge mario kart fan and will likely play it for hundreds of hours, but if other people don't think that then i guess we will see a change in direction.

i do know that with how many people already don't want to buy a lot of AAA games at $70 or even $60 (or in the case of something like concord, even $40), with tons of studios closing down because of it. things are going to be accelerating faster now with the game industry i think, if these companies are really going to try pushing for their shitty games to be $80 without a huge change to every facet of development.

@Ghislaine @nicholas @caekislove it can be nice for more niche things though, because you can pretty much guarantee there will be a discord for it and someone in there who can answer your oddly specific question, and much faster too.

@Ghislaine @nicholas @caekislove emulator devs have literally quit over this lmao

@Ghislaine back in like 2010 I actually had a wait time of infinity on a download once. It was still downloading too, just extremely slowly to the point where I guess it gave up trying to calculate the time.

@SuperDicq ha ha ha ha ha ha ha

@Meat_Mom me and who

Alright, going to get groceries (isn't that a lovely word, groceries?) and then I'm gonna figure out this feywild shit. I know there is a lot of wild magic there. Plan is to throw the party into a battle immediately with a bunch of fey creatures and a lot of wild magic happening.

@LoliHat I thought they were 12
