    Mtx are just plain bad for consumers though. They can bleed money from people with bad spending habits and other issues and they hate a lot of content that used to (usually) unlockable in-game content, and if it’s undeniably extra content then they usually become a bit wild like fortnite causing the game to lose a lot of is individual identity that it had at its start, or they just give poorer players FOMO. Other than being a way for consumers to give companies a little extra money for making a good game or content, I can’t think of anything good to say about mtx especially when it comes to the actual game itself.

      Thanks for making my point for me. It doesn’t matter if mtx are completely cosmetic and don’t particularly have any effects on gameplay. People are just going to complain about it existing at all

        Because they are objectively bad for games and gamers. We’re not complaining for the sake of complaining

            You’ve either never seen or played games prior to mtx, a closet gambling addict, or spent too much on something like LoL and now have buyers bias trying to justify your worthless digital “goods”, to be defending mtx as hard as you are.

            It is not an objective truth, what makes you think that they’re good for games and gamers?

            Remember when games would have you stuff for free by just playing the game normally, rather than having to empty your wallet or play the game like it was a second job? Because I do.
