I would accept a rise in price for games if that means greedy and amoral corporations would stop carving the games up to sell one bit as day one dlc, one bit as bonus dlc even though 20 years ago it was part of the full game, would stop putting systems in the games to make you keep coming back every day to increase the chances of you spending money, etc. Basically if they would stop the thousands of greedy monetarization tactics they currently have going and the next thousand they're getting ready to implement.

That will literally never happen though, so the very concept of rewarding said corporations with extra money for the base product is insane and the definition of shilling.

I'd never even thought about it, but yeah, I'd be willing to pay $100-$120 for a new game if there were a guarantee of worthwhile expansions/DLC to be added over time.

I get tons of flak or this, but I rather like DLC when it's done correctly. It's a great way to add longevity to a game, or to bring me back to a game I'd previously finished/dropped. Unfortunately this is done correctly <10% of the time, and it's seemingly getting worse.
