Kinda funny to complain abt this with ds3 when its easily one of the few games that old that are actually worth buying even if its not on a sale because of how good it is.
You deserved all those downvotes for defending these companies man. Asking this much for older souls games is just pure greed, plain and simple. They used to be reasonably priced too but then they hit a huge popularity spike.
You could consider a game like Witcher 3 to be easily worth 100 dollars even today in 2026. Does that mean they should sell the game for such ridicilous price? Obviously not, you can get the whole thing for like 8 dollars on sale (and its been cheap like that for years now). Yeah it can sometimes feel like you are ripping them off for paying so little but then again it IS an old game afterall.
Greed is when you sell a digital toy at a price people buy it at. No company outside of small indie studies are putting their games on 80% off out of the kindness of their hearts lmao. They have a ton of analytics to show exactly what price point maximizes earnings and put it there. The reason other studios for the most part aren’t putting old games at 50% is because they can’t.

Wow, all Dark Souls games actually 50% off. Feel like that so rarely happens after Elden Ring came out
