Nowhere in my post did I say gamers felt trapped. Also the investment part was a small part(you also danced around the fact that ur initial investment is returned equally or greater when additional investments are made/required. Yeah people could've bought the season pass with their preorders, but that is not the same thing as buying the complete product... this game has been overhyped and and overpriced period. Just because people play it alot, doesn't mean it's worth the price. That's the equivalent of saying if I play with a yo-yo for 6 months then I should pay an absurd amount for a basic yo-yo. Time played =/= equal value. Content = Value.
