I'm guessing you haven't been paying attention to Fallout 76 either... Rather than offer a Season Pass, Bethesda will be funding the development of Fallout 76 DLC with the sale of micro-transactions.

TBH fallout 76 isn't a traditional RPG,and the atom shop is the way they are funding the upcoming stuff...just like 343 is using the req system to fund Halo 5's new stuff. https://www.halowaypoint.com/en-us/news/halo-5-guardians-req-system-introduction
Here's what the atom shop is funding

Now an argument could be made that the original intent was for beth$eda to sell perk packs given that they are RNG and used to get new perks or level up perks for your character but they changed course due to the fallout (no pun intended) from the recent court cases in Europe and battlefront 2.
It's still Fallout 76 and its an online RPG so not really what the franchise is about. Fundamental problem right there. Put lipstick on a pig it's still a pig.
