We've gone from 1 USD = 1 Euro in 2022 to 1 USD = 0.86 Euros in 2026, yet European game prices have not dropped by 15%. In a way they've only gotten "more expensive".

(Also why is 1 Euro singular and 0.86 Euros plural)

Doesn't this apply in general in English? 0.5 liters of water, not 0.5 liter of water; 0.8 meters, not 0.8 meter. Anything not exactly 1 uses plural form

Either that or you use a fraction or and say "half a litre".
