We used to have both good and bad games without microtransactions. I dont think its right to give concessions to game companies that include microtransactions just because its become so normalised.

I dont feel sorry for a game company that cant make literal billions from a game without adding a store.

They dont need billions to develop good games. Most of that profit goes straight to the top and overworked developers see very little of it.

You can have completely f2p games though that everyone can enjoy and that has microtransactions though. Then everyone can enjoy the game and if they want to spend money then do so. That was the point of my post.

It’s awful paying full price for a game with microtransactions though, that is shitty for sure.

Cosmetic only microtransactions which don’t effect gameplay should always be welcome. Look at Dota 2.
