MODERATORS
What about now with the Black Friday discounts? Also, I indicated two possibilities: games getting cheaper or game development getting more lucrative. More money means the gaming industry getting software dev talents.
That this is the only counter example you came up with should tell you enough.
I could've given more. If we're only thinking of the industry giants, of course a slight reduction in expenses don't matter. But the smaller devs will definitely benefit.
