Sounds customized for your specific ear shape??? I've never been less willing to believe something in my life
Sony did this with the ps5, you had to send Mark Cerny ear pics...
It is a real thing. Very few people have identical ears on both sides of their head, and almost no one shares the same shape with another person. There's a few active implementations of this on truly wireless earbuds, but the latency makes it irrelevant for most things except music. Depending on just how unique the ear shape is, it can drastically change how things sound.
In no capacity should it be a paid feature in a game, though. In a more competitive game with a lot of value placed on audio like Escape From Tarkov, this would completely change the game and how it is played.
TLDR: Your ears are unique, and your brain spends your entire life from the moment your ears are hearing things, tuning to them.
