These are big companies, and we have reached a post-capitalist economic stage where consumer demand is less important, and the big companies can just illegally collude and sell you what they want to sell you at the price they want.

They know this well and the discussions going on at these companies are assuredly not about what gamers want, they are about "Can we convince EA to do titles on our streaming platform" and so on. You will own nothing and be happy.
