Super Mario 2 wasn't relying on players making additional purchases for a portion of their revenue, though. They didn't care if you bought it and quit playing it the same day.
Are you implying this game has microtransactions or something?
No, not yet; I'm pointing out that Deep Rock Galactic does, and that continued revenue from them is a (probably) not insignificant part of their revenue from the game (based on the fact that they keep adding more). In order for them to be a valuable source of income, players have to stick around.
