@fineursine imo 8-10 bucks is relatively fair for a SNES game; steam + humble have just devalued games to the point where anything above 5 dollars seems high. Eventually Nintendo will do their subscription service and games will have the Spotify problem, which imo is worse.

@fineursine sorry for being salty, I've just seen this devaluation of creative output spread outside video games to art - I've literally seen people argue that if they can get a whole game for 3 dollars and games have a lot of art, why pay more than that for anything? I get that these people are bad faith idiots but it's frustrating.
