Bonjour can you explain why games that are over 10 years old are still priced at their original release price? I don't understand this “sale” principle when a gradual price reduction over time (toot.aquilenet.fr)

Bonjour @gog can you explain why games that are over 10 years old are still priced at their original release price? I don't understand this “sale” principle when a gradual price reduction over time would make pricing easier to understand.
FR:
Pouvez-vous nous expliquer pourquoi des jeux de plus de 10 ans sont toujours au prix de sortie ? Je ne comprends pas ce principe de "soldes" alors qu'une baisse de tarifs au fur et à mesure du temps permettrait une meilleure compréhension des prix.

Well technically inflation does that for you, taking $ here, but $10 was worth more than 10 years ago than now. I understand where you are coming from and it makes sense, so also I might be wrong but hopefully there aren't too many games increasing their price as time goes on to account for inflation.
