I'm really surprised Remnant 2 is platinum. I knew it was popular, but to be up there with the best selling AAA games is impressive.

Even if you're not buying any microtransactions, you're still being used.

I mean you’re playing the game, aren’t you simply paying in an unconventional way? You can’t pretend to think that you playing a game you paid nothing for is bad for trying to extract something in return?

That being said, games where you pay for the game and still have a ton of microtransactions to actually enjoy most of the content of the game are just highway robbery.
