Perhaps I'm out of touch, but it seems absolutely crazy to me that $40 is now considered a premium price for a game like this. When you compare that price point to the price of other goods these days, that's pretty damn cheap for what you are (probably) getting.

You aren't just paying 40 dollars.

I'm assuming you won't have the best time if you buy in at the start then never spend any more money.

The assumption is that if you're going to be doing battle passes and microtransactions, then the game should be free to play. If you pay up front, that shit is not gonna fly.

I don't make the rules, but that's how people see it.
