What's the monetization like on this? I knew this was one of Sony's GaaS. I think $50 is a good price, but what is the ongoing cost for content?

It's not competitive. It's cooperative. It doesn't even have a pvp mode.

And even if it had a pvp mode, 3 days isn't going to change anything long term. It's such a minor issue. It's just another thing for people to needlessly complain about.

They did, yes. Getting pretty common these days. Early Access with a preorder of a higher priced digital edition of a game. Seems relatively harmless to me. I would never pay for that, but I think if it means that much to you, it's not hurting anything.

I mean, who was searching for that before the game released? I imagine you'd see the same trend with basically every game immediately following release. Not to downplay the issues the game has having, but this is like a "duh" kind of thing.
