My take is less about the game itself, and the idea of games increasing its price at all. I've tried the demo and its a game right up my alley plus I enjoy games like it such as satisfactory. It just doesn't stomach well to me of a digital game going up in price.
I have seen multiple people mention mods at this point and I don't really count modding as part of the value of a game since modders aren't getting paid when I buy the game. Plus really any game can be infinite if you enjoy it enough and mods exist for it.
Fair enough, we’ll just disagree then. I personally have no problem with this game increasing in price since I think it’s also increasingly giving value. I believe the studio runs an honest business and have honest expenses, and if this is what they need then I much prefer this over random sales, constant DLCs if you want to continue to get value, in game marketing and micro transactions etc.
