So gamers are quibbling about the price of the upcoming GTA6 game because it will cost between $80 and $100.
And indeed, imagine paying $100 just to play a realistic game about a guy who can't even pay his rent.
But when you think about it, games were always priced around $100 (if you account for inflation), at least in the 20th century. When you bought Combat for your Atari console in the 70s, you probably paid around $100. Granted, you also had to pay for the hardware that it came out on, but today you just download it.
Still, if any game is worth $100, I think it would be the new GTA because you know they put a lot of effort into it—not just a lot but probably the most work anyone has ever put into a game.

teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"
