I understand what you're trying to say but when looking at hours of gameplay and the cost of games vs inflation, even if you factor in a gold version of a game (season pass + main game) you're looking at roughly the same value that you would pay in 2000.<br><br>If you go back further, to the 80's, those NES carts were about 45 at the cheapest which equals about $86 today.<br><br>I do agree that people are fed up with predatory practices, but the cost/vs content isn't a good point of analysis. You actually have a positive trend through the late 2000's where you got more for your money when adjusting for inflation.<br><br>In my opinion, game companies should have increased pricing to reflect production costs which would have, maybe, led to less microtransactions and would have made the whole situation more understandable.
