personally I can't argue about the cost of S42/star citizen. from memory I paid £60ish . the down side is, I refuse to play P2W games and right now SC is horrendously P2W.
I know some argue this fact but to be honest I just can't see how you justify it as anything else. you pay money you get free ships which you keep forever.
you don't pay money you play and earn credits to get access to ships which are periodically taken from you and your in game money wiped. I still hope eventually I will get the game I paid for but right now as a "game" it is horrible and ticks every predatory game box in the book imo.
I personally give it somewhat of a pass choosing to trust the Devs promise that on release everything will be earnable by playing the game.. however CIG can't have it both ways and imo that negates any argument about the game having been released for a decade and it already being a game... it's not it's a pre release tech demo and as such I don't think it's fair to argue value Vs actual released games
