"We should improve gaming somewhat"
"Just don't buy the game!"
Here's the thing, there are already vendors doing largely what. Indies generally:
- cost less
- release in a playable state
- take risks on new ideas
- don't have microtransactions
But people usually talk about big AAA games in these complaints. Buy indies and we'll end up with more variety.
I buy mostly indies now, usually on gog or itch too.
But sometimes on steam if it's multiplayer.
That's sort of how it works though isn't it? If games at $80 are too much then less people will buy, profits will drop and publishers will either lower prices, or vanish and get replaced by ones that lower prices.
pretty sure AA and AAA studio execs can also organize and collectively agree on an $80 or higher price tag until it eventually sticks
