Would you pay $40 for a movie that you've already seen, without actually going? (identical to paying for the original game - as featured in TTK download) Or would you pay $40 for a 30min movie? (identical to less content, but similar price for TTK vs original game) The issue isn't your priorities, but whether or not the price is worth the limited content. For you, obviously, it appears to be, as your only measuring stick mentioned is the ratio of time:money. To others, it tends to be different. I spend thousands more for a car, yet spend less time in it, than playing video games. Doesn't mean I should value this transaction any more or less than its worth as a standalone product.
