Publishers think, that thanks to Denuvo and new Steam regional pricing and sales policies, they can up the prices on PC games to even them with console games.
I, for one, will not buy any 60€ game on PC. They can go fuck themselves. Don't allow them to level us up to console retards, who HAVE TO have more expensive games, so Sony, M$ and Nintento can earn their money back after selling their machines at a loss.
If people accept the price increase in addition to shitty port qualities, day one DLCs, Season Passes, exclusive content etc. then I can pretty much assume gaming is dead.

I've always wondered: why do PC games cost less than console games?
>>332916812
Because it's digital and easier to release.

On the flip side, all physical media eventually fail, whereas the lifetime license will last you as long as the distributor is around..

Broader audience = more sold copies.
Besides you asked the wrong question.
The righ one is "why is console gaming more expensive" and the reason is stated in OP post
>>332916924
So, licenses can "fail" too is what you're saying.
>>332916924
Not in our lifetime.

Even physical copies are cheaper. It mostly had to do with specific right. For each playstation game, Sony takes a certain percentage on it. (for several reason, royalities, and the additional bit of code used to make the game works with the console).
What is weirder is that "extended edition" or that shit cost even more on console for no reason at all.
I remember the Fallout 3 collector edition. Standard edition was like $50 on PC and $60 on console. But collector PC was like 10 or 15 dollars more, and collector console was 80 bucks, so 20 dollars more. For the exact same content. The same shitty plastic bobblehead and miniature artbook, and so on. Go figure why plastic and paper were suddenly more expensive for console players.

That's the point. Now the additional $20 will be forced upon PC games, because they think "they can". As far I know they can be probing us to see if we take it like little bitches.
PCucks don't even buy games as it is, raising prices would go even further to make more pirates and F2P kiddies.
