Yeah I agree. However, I wish game companies would leave me out of their business models. I don't care. If the game is good I'll play it. If it's not, I won't. You don't hear car manufacturers or clothing companies, or musicians, or movie makers harping on about how they need to eat and so trying to convince me of how I need to pay them a particular way. Just make the game because it's a good game. If they want to turn everything enjoyable into a business model and expose the revenue stream to me at every turn, they should go package food or something else mundane.
It's high time games companies took care of their own financial crap, stopped dumping it on the players, and started making what is worth making. The reason the industry is in such a nosedive right now is because all this marketing bullshit and money making motivation has strangled the creativity out of almost everything. The games suck as a result, and players are catching on to the fact and have stopped buying.
