Just ran some very approximate numbers for League of Legends. That's also ~40 hours of play to unlock one new hero, except League gives large bonuses for the first win of the day and lowers prices for old characters as new ones are released. And offers a rotating lineup of free characters to try them out. And frequent missions that speed things up. So... this $80 game is slightly less accessible than a free game where "access to all characters" was never part of the expectation. That's rough.

To make an even harsher comparison, Dota 2 is free, all characters and gamemodes, sans cosmetics. Since Disney / Starwars is probably in control of cosmetics (No green lightsaber for Vader allowed) the only way for these microtransactions is via these unlocks. They bundled up the microtransactions / unlocks and built a game around it
