That $40 included plastic packaging and a disc both of which largely don't exist anymore.
And a complete game!
Never was a significant cost. So complaining, you are never going to get you 50c of plastic to burn down the planet to spite publishers.
Those cost pennies. They were never part of the cost.
Absolutely agree with you. However it's what's been said to people for years to justify the cost
I guess I just have never heard that before. 🤷
