Cause the micro transactions are literally pointless.
The only people complaining are the people who haven't played the game enough to know that NOTHING in the dlc is worth paying for. If you played the game for the first few hours, you'd earn more RC just by killing shit then the highest dlc package offers. Ferrystone are loot or gold. Barber shop costs gold too. Nothing is even that expensive.
The game is LITERALLY exactly like the first game except more content. The micro transactions might as well be called donations.
If you are ok with this, you are naive and not thinking about what will happen next. They will obviously push this bar higher with next game if they feel like it's acceptable because people didn't protest enough.
Next game you might find yourself having to buy map access because they will say it's more realistic to play the game without the map, and then add micro transaction for it.
Defending and accepting practices like this is basically destroying our gaming future.
That's exactly how we ended up with games like Diablo 4
Micro transactions + 70 euro + paid expansions + battlepass in one game and there are still people defending it.
Dude. I get that. If that was the case here I'd be up in arms too. But it's not. Not even close. This is the equivalent of complaining that you didn't get the "Twin Humanities" starting gift in dark souls. It honestly is inconsequential to the experience while playing the game. NOTHING is worth paying for and anyone saying that hasn't played the long enough to realize that. The game is perfectly playable in every aspect and you miss out on nothing.
It's not about being worthy or not. It's about pushing a new status quo of being acceptable to have MTXs on a 70 USD game.
I'm sorry but the whole point is the principle of it, I a consumer, and spending $70 ( which may I add is still at least $10 more MSRP than your typical game) which is single player, which pointlessly requires an internet connection(at least to start the game), has an anti-cheat(well technically an Anti-Tamper) and has microtransactions. The only thing this is missing is a battle pass and you have every aspect that the majority of the game Community hates.
This game is literally the embodiment of corporate greed and people buying the game regardless of that and saying "oh the microtransactions are able to be obtained in game anyway" are just eating the corporate "shit-pie".
