    @Kiosade Both true and fair exceptions, just pointing out their general trend. Wasn’t trying to either bitch or moan 😅

    The way I see it, they re-release games that continue selling well 3-4 years after the initial release at a lower price point so they can continue getting revenue from them without losing out to the 2nd hand market. I think many of their games continue selling much longer than typical AAA games.

      Oh sorry, I wasn’t trying to say you were doing that, it’s just a thing I see quite often whenever this topic comes up.

      And yeah, their games are generally pretty good, so they have staying power. This is compared to flavor of the month games where, once the general populace has had their fun with them, they die in a far-off corner, never to be heard of again.
