You're definitely right about there being some people who will play it for thousands of hours and probably get $1,000 of enjoyment from it, but where I think the comparison with a jetski falls down is a jetski is a physical thing, it somewhat retains its value, if you do get bored you can sell it later for whatever % of what you paid for it.
You cant really sell games like that anymore, especially not dlc.
