I'm a big fan of tabletop simulator-- you can play and create virtually any board game online. Really not much like it.
That said, it is probably the game which MOST needs a freemium pricing model. Convincing everyone you want to play with to drop $20 on a game can be a prohibitive hurdle. No problem for other gamers in your life, but non-gaming family/friends/co-workers...that's a huge lift.
I'd be way more eager to pay double, if it meant I was unlocking "host" abilities to start the game, while everyone else could join for free in an app/website.
A low price and energy draw with ultra 4k gaming, meets the wants/needs for >90% of hobbyists. Assuming no issues with future testing/drivers, the 6000 line is forcing nvidia into a more niche market. Namely, Ml, ray tracing, and "flex" buyers.
I wouldn't be that worried if I were nvidia-- catering to the whales is good business, but I think we're looking at amd winning the lion share of the market
