Then games like Fortnite or Apex Legends wouldn't make sense because the whole idea is that in-game spending funds ongoing development. Development and servers cost money, and assuming that new game sales will continue indefinitely doesn't make any sense.
What I think we should do is require discontinued MP games to be self-hostable, improve price transparency, and ban in-game purchases for minors. That should do a lot to correct the poor behavior of these companies without destroying the evergreen MP game model. This won't impact games that already do things mostly ethically (e.g. Minecraft) and will require changes to the worst of the abusers.
