The change in price has been discussed before. It should have been raised to $70 based on inflation and old pricing, but it just didn't happen.
They just avoided a PR nightmare by charging as they have before. Going forward, publishers will head into the $70 price point.
only inflation of the corporate structure :P
hint: full price AAA titles have been over $60 for a loooooong time. Season Pass, DLCs, Micro Transaction, what do you think all that stuff is?
my problem is the disparity between US and EU. minus taxes it's 69.50 USD for EU customers
That's only part of it, the US dollar has been subject to an "ideal" amount of 2% inflation per year. That's what the federal reserve wants to happen. Just look at the US inflation calculator. $60 in the year 2000 is equivalent to $90 in 2020.
The disparity is due to different currencies and standardization practices. Standard is higher and happened faster in Europe. We should be getting there too.
