That's an average price of a AAA game, right? And what kind of utility do you get from that?

Just did a quick check... I bought it in Sept of 2012, 2323 days ago.

$70 / (2323 day * 6 hrs/day) = $0.005/hr

Did I get my money's worth (and mind you, I paid less than that.. I'm just going by today's prices)? I think I did. It all depends on how you value things.

Not trying to make any value judgement of my own here, but I think the parent was more referring to the marginal cost/benefit of a $60 font compared to some of the free options available.

Except that most expensive AAA games don't have free counterparts...

Not all fonts have free counterparts. “Serif” and “sans serif” don’t always mean fungible.

If you don't buy fonts often 60 Eur may seem expensive but that's actually pretty cheap as far as paid fonts go.

Yeah why not? I configured it on all my consoles and ideas. It looks good, is dense and good readable.

Inconsolata doesn’t even have italics!
