Not only that games are getting cheaper due to not keeping up with inflation, I also bet that none of you earn less money now compared to ten years ago (unless you lost your job).
10 years ago I went to University and earned nothing. Got some money from my dad to pay the rent and get some food. I couldn't even buy one new game a month with the money that I had left over.
5 years ago I was in the middle of my vocational training since I dropped out of University. First time I earned my own money, roughly €1000 a month. Rent was pretty high since I was living in Berlin. Yet, I could've easily bought some games at full price during that time each month.
A few months ago, I succesfully graduated and started my new job earning a lot more than before even though it's obviously just the starting salary. I could buy each and every new release on launch day and still have money left to save for vacations.
In 10 years, I will likely have reached the limit of my career (unless I'm deciding to postgraduate) and earn like double the amount I'm currently getting (more than that when factoring in inflation).
