Sure but will that fly on today's app store?

Anecdotally, I think a single purchase can also eliminate a feedback mechanism from the players to the designers, in some scenarios.



Seems to work OK for Minecraft. There is DLC for mods and texture packs and other clearly auxiliary stuff, but you get the whole game when you buy it.


Oh yeah, wow, it seems to work for the literal biggest game ever, I'm sure it'll work for everyone then.


It got to be the literal biggest game even on top of that princing model.


The DLC model seems to work. Similar to micro transactions, but none of the pay to win, gambling, and grind bypassing nonsense.
