All that I hear with this kind of argument, especially coming from a ‘boss’, is: “We have to keep maximising shareholder value and making sure that the CEO gets a bigger bonus every year. So despite our massive guaranteed record profits every time we drop a new game, we just have to raise prices so that the CEO won’t feel the tariffs too badly when he buys his next Ferrari.”

So despite our massive guaranteed record profits every time we drop a new game, we just have to raise prices and lay off ⅓-½ of the staff so that the CEO won’t feel the tariffs too badly when he buys his next Ferrari."
