So... Galactic Racer is $60, and they're saying it's a "smaller" game. So they're charging more for less. Got it.

That's the gist, but I think spending a bit less on game development bodes well for the industry as a whole. The trend has gone way too far in that direction.
I agree with that but I as a consumer would expect the price to be lower as a result.
That'd why I'm more than happy to support devs like Team Cherry. They put in crazy amounts of work and they're not treating video games as a get rich quick scheme.
Sometimes it’s gotta be quad A
Only Star Citizen's developer CIG, has sufficient expertise to make a quad A game.
Just looks at prices in their cash shop.
