Bethesda Is Charging $7 For A New Starfield Mission, And Players Are Upset

Right?

Bethesda just released an expansion for fallout 76. It's a game that I'm fairly fond of, considering the amount of dislike I have for fallout 4, it improved on it in every way from the worldbuilding to building to the story, I could go on, point is, I like it.

The new expansion, the first map expansion and like 20 major updates in.

The new map is quite a large region. You'd expect a few side quests to unlock these other locations. Maybe some hidden gems. Maybe some cool NPCs outside of the main "expansion" right?

Its literally: A main quest that's short (beat it in like 3 hours on the first day it dropped)

A single side quest that's more of an optional objective on the main quest

A single new event

A single new boss.

Four things they added. Two of which can only be done once (bad formula for a game designed around repeating similar tasks)

They've just straight up gotten bad. There's no love in their products anymore. It's all taking the easiest way out, lacking any amount of real creativity.

I just want them to migrate from their shitty proprietary engine, buckle down on a good story and prioritizing fun.

The thing with those is that, while it was a small amount of content, it wasn't just a mission, each was about an hour of repeatable content that was fairly fun to farm. At $2, they actually still felt worth it with as much fun as B2 was. If they had asked for like $10 each, people would have flipped out.
I'm not a Starfield player, but I would bet this is not even close to as good of a value proposition.
