I think you got the most level-headed take here. It really is about capitalism and the fact that gaming is now a mature market, which means it is now sufficiently saturated in the stink of capitalism and megacorps, just like other media industries. In a world where we weren't all being squeezed from every direction, games would probably cost less and Silksong's price wouldn't seem like an outlier.
