I posted this in the other thread, but I'm going to reiterate it here, and note I'm not just talking about gaming companies, but all companies.
When I think about how much profit some of these companies have made off me (not just in gaming,) It's insulting to see them gouge and pass costs on, in the name of more short term record profits, instead of eating some of these margins during this (transitory ) inflation.
I will go out of my way to support companies in the future that chose to not chase short term profits now at the expense of the consumer. The ones that did, and gouged the hardest will never see another dime from me, as long as I have an alternative.
That's the galling thing about almost all this type of thing, whether it's gaming companies talking about how they need to raise the price of games or just in general, not just with prices but with wage increases etc. Everyone is always crying poor when it's convenient while rocking all-time high profit margins.
