I agree.. the subscription model is way too greedy right now. The cost to buy a SINGLE CAR in Asphalt 9 is insane. To buy the LaFerrai Aperta for example (only a Class A car, not even a class S which are silly money) and star it up to get the max from it costs over $2000USD. WTH! When it's entirely possible to spend $20000 on one game it's clearly an abusive business model. What's worse is that it's deceptive too. The use of Loot Boxes is very contravertial for good reason - you can spend real money and not even get anything useful for it. ASphalt 9 card packs are basically loot boxes which is a form of gambling, albeit a hidden one. Whilst Asphalt is a great game, the pricing model is unethical and this needs to be called out far more than it is.
