  • Cause selling new games is more profitable.

    If a new games costs €60 and older games €5 or less (which would be a lot less on streaming services), they’d have to sell at least 12 old games for every new game they sell less cause of this change. And if gamers spend more time on older games, it’s highly possible that they’d buy, even just a single game, less.

    It’s the same with movies or TV. They would only loose money if they make the whole archive available as there is just so much of it that some of the new things could become irrelevant.

    Not that I’m against archiving, but it is caused by the creative sector having to have to make money, which isn’t easy for smaller players, and greed.

    There are lots of other ways for progression instead of inflicting more damage because of some numbers.

    I think of:

    • Just getting better at jumping/slashing/tactics

    • Having limited gear that you have to switch out or improve throughout the story

    • Gaining new abilities or allies

    And just that if you keep “improving” and inflicting more damage and have higher defense, at the same time the opponents become stronger, it would have been the exact same difficulty level if the numbers just stayed the same.
