Fuck the marketing term, in practice it can be great. Monster hunter world did it great, you got the base game that was a complete product, and then post-launch you got new monsters (like deviljho), new events with new weapons or armor, special hunts (like kulve taroth) or events that flood you with materials to catch up to the end game. And when that was over for the base game you got an expansion with another year of support.

I'm all for "gaas" like mhw got.
