Blame inflation.
And inflation doesn't mean "prices go up", that's the result of inflation. Which is the printing of ever more money.

Denuvo won completely and utterly. It's unbreakable and completely piracy-proof
It was already a complete pain in the ass with every continuously updated games. Like Total Wars which required recracking every update, every dlc, every hotfix and none of the piratetrannies bothered to do so. So at best you could pirate long outdated version with none of the mods working, which are all tied to Steam anyway.
But now it just won completely. GTA 6 will release with Denuvo and none of you will be able to pirate it. All you will be able to do is to cope.

Better yet, even cream api started to have issues recently. So even a trick with buying a base game on a sale and then pirating dlcs soon will cease to exists as well.

What's the issue? If you're willing to pay extra for the game with one of the only benefits is that you get to play just a little bit earlier than other people which depraciates in value the longer you don't pay for it, why do you care what the developer sets their price at? If you don't like it then just wait like everyone else on the discount and purchase when it's the right price for you.

I haven't paid full price for a video game for almost ten years now. They can raise prices all they want, but I'm still going to simply not pay it. I'll just wait for games to go on sale, and if the on sale price is still to high, or if the game never goes on sale, then I'll just pirate it.
