Imagine a newgame+ but the only thing different is an NPC shoves a tablet in your face and tells you "it's just gonna ask you a few questions."

I love how in addition to this unhinged shit, he slides the implication that $70 is the price of a game, you know. $70. The price it's always been. The correct price of a game. Why, every single game has costed $70 since time immemorial. I remember heading down to the video store and paying $70 for a revocable temporary license for an Atari game (subject to activation server uptime) back in the 80s! Who doesn't?
Actually ai think atari games were more than that adjusted for inflation. The real issue is that games are cheaper than ever but they refuse to actually make them well. Like, fi they scoped and planned their projects reasonably they could make AAA games just as good for cheaper without anyone knowing or caring. Instead we get extra high rez assets and crunch.
I'm pretty sure I paid $70 for the Power Rangers game in like 1994
Funny enough some games really did cost this much back then, I saw one of those old Sears catalogs of NES and SNES games for sale and some of them were $70 back then, too.
Nowadays though, the games aren't even finished and they're trying to get you to buy content for the game that should have been in the base game itself, not to mention you don't even own the games, just a temporary license and if the service goes down, so do your games.
