They're hocking near-zero marginal cost goods and their pricing is already high enough to deny potential consumer base - despite technically being able to afford it, I rarely buy AAA titles until they're available at big discounts or from less than reputable 3rd parties, I just don't see most games as that valuable, it's a bit of a gamble whether they're even worth playing.
Compare this with $10/mo for Netflix or Spotify - gamers are getting a rough deal already just buying a few AAA titles a year. Personally I'm all for microtransactions so long as they don't impact gameplay in unfair ways - many developers are already doing this quite successfully, Fortnite and Overwatch being popular and generally well liked examples.
