Youre paying a second time

You were referring to the MTX after you purchase the game.

Incorrect. The second payment is the loss of content they dont get because they dont buy.

The guy has already repeatedly stated he doesnt buy microtransactions. The second payment is not the mtx he doesnt buy, its the lost content that the $60 game doesnt give him

Thats fair, I probs shouldnt have used "paid for" in the metaphorical sense in a discussion about actually buying things lol
