And then you have Clair Obscure: Expedition 33, an AA indy gem that goes for what, 50€ ?
80€ games are a symptom of the marketing cancer that plagues modern AAA games. No need for a 1000 person team, what they need is passion for the medium, and a dedicated team that isn't impeded by executive greed.

One of the most obvious signs of this is the fact that EA had a small team of about 10 people who made one of the best Star wars games that have been released in years. Of course it's EA, so they screwed it up by shutting the servers down eventually but still, much better than Battlefront II

Nintendo bets you'll buy Mario Kart even if it's $80. Focus bets you won't buy Roadcraft unless it's $40.

I'm looking at the picture, and I have no idea what the hell you're talking about. There's no $80 or $1 in this image.

I think $80 comes from:
Borderlands
and £1 comes from difference £35.99 - £34.99but yes I agree with you they were not clear

They are pointing out that there's loads of good games on Steam that don't cost $80, given the prevalence of such good games there really isn't justification for that price point.
The picture shows that a game that is yet to be released (I actually thought it was already out but apparently not) is only £35 ($45) If you want the bundle which gives you two games it's only an extra £1
Personally I'm not that interested in snow runners it just seems like an infuriating game, but the fact that you can get it for virtually nothing is interesting.

Btw why are we getting more expensive games in EUR and GBP while USA pays less than us? Aren’t they supposed to have the bigger salaries?
-
Their sticker price doesn't have tax, ours has the insane VAT rates already included. That doesn't help. We still get shafted for a lot of consumer goods.
-
Okay, makes sense, but even then I feel like we pay too much 😵

It been quite some time since I haven’t spent more than 30€ for a game
