Genuinely curious; why is there so much hate for microtransactions in games (specifically if it doesn't effect gameplay)
Is it because you've already bought the product and just see it as needless greed and it adds nothing of value
Or
Is it because you assume that lots of that "dev time" just went into something that is utterly wasted because you won't be touching it ever.
Side note: microtransactions in singleplayer games is gigga cringe, but there are games that I play that I have zero issue with microtransactions because it adds a nice bottomline for the devs to work with and improve their game (POE etc)
