I guess this is probably going to be the new shitty norm with bait and switch for reviews then nickel and dime afterwards.

Full priced game adding microtransactions cosmetic or not will always be total bullshit.

"As long as it's only cosmetics" has moved the goalposts from where we used to be on the matter. I completely agree it's bullshit.

The Tales Of series has been bullshit. Used to be fun collecting new costumes from hidden events and side quests. Now half of the interesting costumes are either DLC or different edition bonuses which you can later purchase as DLC.
