The only thing that this harms for me is multiplayer experiences. It means that only people willing to pay that high price during economic hardship will be able to play multiplayer stuff that isn’t 2-4 years old. Imagine spending $70 on call of duty. Nope you say. I can wait you say. So you do wait until next year and it’s on sale for $45. You bite the bullet. And guess what? Now you get to come home and play a game that has players who have been playing for a year. Or hackers. On a game without content updates. It’s an awful experience and I’m happy there are plenty of games not asking that full price.
