@Grumblevolcano The weird part is, the sellers don't reduce the price of the base console to match it at least.
£429 for PS5 & EA Sports FC 24 or £479 for a console on its own. Who in their right mind would buy the latter?

Argos — PlayStation 5 Console & EA SPORTS FC 24 Bundle — 324/3905

This is the disc version -

@nessisonett You raise a good point! Because AAA games are becoming more expensive, less creative risks are being taken. But that's not the case with smaller developers.

Unfortunately, as some have kindly pointed it out to me, I need to narrow my horizons as I just have too many games to play. That goes for smaller titles as well. So I won't be able to experiment as much as before and have to instead rely on marketing/word-of-mouth for smaller games that are worth playing. Cocoon for example seems to be one of those games so I might give that a go down the line!

@LtSarge And now Alannah is saying basically the same about the industry...

@BAMozzy She makes a good point about the FIFA Ultimate Team cards. It generates so much revenue and it's so cost-efficient that why wouldn't other companies do something similar with their games. That's why I'm slightly worried about Sony making more live service games. If they end up producing titles that are constantly generating revenue, then there's no point in making new games. They wouldn't need to make any more single-player games, on top of them already being so expensive to make.

Good rant there. It’s refreshing to see someone place due responsibility of the state of the industry on its customer base. Of course, we’ll collectively continue to hypocritically blame corporations and
