The problem is people making a game worth $20 stuffing it to the brim with MTX, Loot-Boxes, season passes, on-Disc-DLC and other post-launch monetization schemes and then pricing it at $70

My "favorite" are cosmetic DLCs for singleplayer games and ones that are basically just paid cheat codes.

"But if it doesn't effect gameplay its okay!"

Yeah Horse Armor didn't effect gameplay but is considered the foundation for DLC from that moment on.

Eh, i won't ever care about cosmetic DLCs for any game (as in, i won't buy it because who gives a shit, but i definitely won't mind it's existence).

Fuck any game that releases the aforementioned paid cheat codes though.
