      What do they charge now? Also, are their “foot"longs still 11”, or have they gotten even shorter?

        It varies, but it’s something like $7.50 to $8. In any case, inflation is a thing. Theme Park was added to the Good Old Games program, which means GOG did real work on it, and it’s not egregious to charge a few extra dollars. Plus, sale percentages are variable; sometimes Dragon Age is 50% off, but right now it’s 60%; this sale might not be a given game’s deepest discount. Are they charging what you’re willing to pay? If I was in the market for Theme Park at $0.89, I’d probably still be in the market for it at $3.

          Inflation, to me, is code word for “I’m going to be greedier”. So, I’m so sick of seeing that word ‘inflation’ being thrown around so much because it’s just excusing and justifying the greed.

            You’re free to believe what you like, but it is real. The cost of an input (electricity, server components, employee salaries, etc.) goes up, and the cost of what a company produces has to go up as well.
