Outside of Wow, I never found a AAA game that can hold my attention past 100 hours, hell 40 is a strech. Its almost never worth it at full price let alone 70.
I have a handful of $30 1000+ hour indy games I may be playing 20 years from now.
I have a difficult time with this announcement from Capcom specifically, because the only AAA games I've consistently gotten 300-1000+ hours from have been Monster Hunter games, and I really don't want the enshitification to claim MHWilds. If it releases at $70 and without excessive microtransactions, I'll have a really hard time not buying it at that price. On the other hand, if they do have those microtransactions and a $70 price tag, I'll probably just ignore it, as much as I'll hate doing so.
It's been a slippery slope but I personally don't mind current MH (World & Rise) microtransactions because they aren't at all necessary for the game not prevent any kind of unlock.
Otoh, if they cracked down on modding because they weren't selling cosmetics...
