Huhhh, this is re: Rockstar & Red Dead + GTA V, and I either messed up tweeting or tried to quote something that doesn't exist anymore, but here we are I am bad at twitter.
The flipside here is that if AAA games can't survive without either being a top seller for literally half a decade or putting dev staff through inhuman working conditions, maybe the entire AAA industry is unsustainable and deserves to crash and burn for a while. https://twitter.com/olivebrinker/status/1051812375026790404
(I know not all of those are new, but they were new at some point, and I'm assuming the cost of a new car is likely fairly stable relative to inflation, so I'm calling that a reasonable hand-wave)
Cost of a new car in Ontario is about 33500, so that's about $8.4M of car in one particular lot, at one particular time.
That's enough to run ~25% of our entire transit infrastructure for a year in upfront purchase price alone, not counting gas, road upkeep, etc.
Showoff.

I can't go to hell - I'm all out of vacation days.
Birds are good. Computers are bad. I'm too old for this.
