Microtransactions should be illegal across the board. Only content with real creative gameplay value should be able to be purchased, like the usual DLC’s. Also pay2win should be fucking illegal too. Ruining the experience of other players should not be available as long as you’ve got too much money to spend.
The razor is: did you, the player, receive new content? Or did you get charged for permission?
Horse armor is fine. That’s how low the bar is. That’s how bad this abuse is. All microtransactions are “on-disc DLC,” where you’ve already been given the thing, inside the game you already paid for, but fuck you, pay us again. And again and again and again.
It’s the difference between Warhammer’s little plastic men being obscenely expensive, and Games Workshop expecting five actual dollars after every match to replace their imaginary bullets.
