    So someone who paid money for stuff got very poor value for their money? Why even have it at all?

      Because executives will want the profit margins going up regardless.

      DMCV had the same irrelevant low value micro transactions that had no business being there. I feel like that’s his way (same director) of complying with demands for extended monetization.

        It’s a trend. It’s quite literally clearly worthless garbage tacked on as MTX to satisfy some worthless suit, but as long as you don’t just buy a bunch of MTX before even playing a given game, you’d notice none of that shit needs to be bought.

          The more I read, the more im coming to the conclusion the mtx are pointless trash for people to sink money into that has no real impact on the game. Like i just dont understand why people are in such a fit. Maybe if it were ten years ago sure, but companies have already saw they can make so much more money by simply giving a way for people to waste money. Shouldnt everyone be happy with a fun game, and encourage the more well off to fund the game through pointless shit that way theres more resources that can go into another fun game or exciting dlc.
