I just spend $15 on getting my kids and myself an ice cream cone, complaining about a $10 fee for actual enhancements is rather ridiculous imo. But you can indeed just play it on ps4, the choice is there to be taken.

It's not the amount, it's the precedent of thinking, "well, we're doing so good, and the PS5 is selling great... so we're going to put a premium $10 tax on everything PS5!".  Greed is an awful thing, and companies have this tendency to only push prices up when they're the market leader already making the most money.  This is virtually the universal complaint/concern: I haven't really seen anyone say that $10 makes it unaffordable lol

It's not a premium tax. I'm paying for the same ice cream as in 2000, except now it's nearly twice as expensive.
$50 in 2000 currently amounts to $78

It's not greed, it's inflation.
It's also not greed to charge for actual work having been done.
They're not charging for BC, the charge is for the extras.

Governments have the tendency to devalue money over time.
