While bold is true, it's up to you to decide whether you want to spend money on additional content. I never buy DLC or microtransactions but instead wait for complete editions (e.g. The Witcher 3 and Horizon: Zero Dawn) or simply just ignore the DLC. So far, I haven't felt like I'm missing out on anything. I don't care about some fancy skin for my character that's exclusive to e.g. the game's $100 Special Edition. I'd most likely just choose the standard skin anyway. You're right about online subscription cost. At the moment though, I'm not subscribing as Apex Legends doesn't require PS Plus which seems to be the case with many of the most popular online games (Fortnite, Paladins, H1Z1, Warframe, Smite, Crossout, Brawlhalla, Neverwinter, Warface, Dauntless, etc). So if you don't care about skins and similar DLC, gaming is in a lot of cases cheaper than ever. |
Good for you. Doesn't change the fact that we're getting less for the same money.
