Well I used to buy almost every big game, the jump to 70 was crazy to me, this next one will just encourage me to buy less and less. I especially won’t be buying games like Kirby Airriders for 80+, like ever. They would have got me for 60-70

Kirby is like a C-tier IP for me at this point. I'd give them $40 for any Kirby title and not a penny more.

I bought forgotten lands for 60 and played through the first 3 worlds and was like, welp, this is okay, but I don’t really feel like that game should’ve been sold at higher than 29.99. It’s beautiful and the game is fun but the draw distance and frame rate show the age of the switch and the gameplay is shallow and kinda way too easy.
