The $60/$70 price tag on video games from major makers is an entry fee, it doesn't get you the full game anymore. You have to pay for luxury editions, expansions, microtransactions of some sort, battle pass. It's cheaper to start a tabletop miniature army than play video games now.

    Is it? What game requires any of that? Even the most microtransation heavy games lile NBA 2k and Fifa are perfectly playable without micro transactions. You'll still get a top team you'll still get 100s of hours out of it.
