Although I do think that game companies are greedy and EA is the devil, you fail to realize that there is inflation. Gaming companies keep their prices at 60 bucks for the "base" game, yet they pour so much more into R&amp;D and marketing than you realize. If you knew the cost of those 60 bucks for a game is a steal. Remember an NES Game from the 80's for games, like Q-bert, Mario, Tetris, Mario, etc. Cost 40ish 1980s dollars. That's almost 120 dollars in 2018. Imagine having to pay 120 dollars for a whole game nowadays. You'd be pissed. Mind you these games are simple 2d basic games and they cost 120 2018 dollars. 60 dollars they charge now for hyper realistic graphics (not fallout games ofc) but imagine all the work that goes into that for 60 buck and that's been the standard price for games since PS3/Xbox360, almost an entire decade at a set price. That's why companies do sketchy stuff like microtransitions. I'd much prefer paying for games with their value increasing with inflation for the whole game over cookie cutting the game and repacking it as DLC.
