Actually xerblade it's not bulls ***
at all, dark
souls 3 on ps4 new
at gamestop is around $ 30 but $ 60 on psn, digital sales stay expensive on console because sony, mircosoft, Nintendo etc, need those physical retailers to sell their hardware, vr, consoles etc, and those retailers make very little profit from that, they mainly get their money from game sells, so they can't give huge discounts like steam because they can't burn their relationship with retailers, steam doesn't have that issue because they don't sell
at retailers so the middle man is cut out and steam can sell
at what price they wish, if Sony made the prices cheaper no one would ever buy physical then retailers wouldn't carry their product because they would make no profit
