[QUOTE="DEFCON 1, post: 9393006, member: 7006"] Microtransactions are only a problem if you are a person who is unable to control their need to own every little bit of something. This concern seems no different than the threads we got several months ago of some decrying that D&D Beyond was releasing a low-level module for free to those people who ordered [I]Vecna: Eve of Ruin[/I], and if you didn't order it on DDB then you couldn't get the module. And people thought that was a horrible practice... as though they were [I]owed[/I] the right to buy or get the product themselves, despite the fact the module probably wouldn't have even been written for release [I]unless [/I]they decided to make it as a special gift for Vecna pre-orders. So people were mad they couldn't get something they never would have gotten anyway. We all have this really odd belief system that makes us think that every single thing should be made available for every single person, and that no one should ever get to get more by paying more. It's so weird. When did "spend more money you get more stuff"? become such a difficult thing to grasp or accept? [/QUOTE]
