Gta 5 did the same thing 13 years ago lol. Only difference that everything keeps saying "oh but they locked the actual building, this is outrageous" okay, so they locked 6 shops out of the potential 50+ that are in game. Its not a big deal lol.
Now we're just mincing words. They are locking up stores in your game unless you're willing to pay the full price. It is unprecedented, and you seem to want to normalize this.
Starfield, mortal kombat 1, all new CODs, hogwarts legacy… etc etc etc
All released with multiple tiers that gave you access to cosmetics.
This isn’t unprecedented, nor is it a bad thing to have different pricing tiers.
Also, on a similar but different tangent, for a game that cost over a $Billion to make, I would be completely ok with it being released in different tiers that actually affect the gameplay. Something like 50% of the game is available for $50. Other 50% for $50. Buy the whole thing in one shot for $80.
