    When they say “raise the bar” they just want to make a hornier dating sim.

      No, whether say “raise the bar” they mean “increase the price.”

      Jokes aside, what they literally mean is “make it on a budget expect a giant revenue since people want more”. And after it flops, they’ll moan and whine about how customers are ruining the industry by not knowing what they want and demanding something they wont buy.
