Not saying both products are comparable at all Just stating that's not how market works. It's a illusion, some may think not buying will lead to a decrease in price when it's not true Each product price needs it's own analysis. I explained why it won't work in this case. Will explain again just in case: 1) When sales increase, prices tends to drop as fixed costs will be split in more units 2) Softwares costs are overwhelmingly fixed with almost no additional cost in each digital copy, so higher sales would lead to prices drop 3) Sales are increasing and yet prices are increasing too? Surely it's increasing because they want higher profits, not because their business are demanding more revenues |
Pretty big difference in terms of overall usefulness, but people want what they want based on their specific situation. Some would like for cheaper better healthcare, some would like for cheaper better gaming products. Not a great direct comparison but has some merit.
Thing is it depends on what is done with those profits. If they are distributed properly and put to good use in a manner that future gaming related products are deemed worthy by consumers, then it's not as big of a deal. If it's seemingly wasted based on poor future products, then people have a problem.
