[QUOTE="Oofta, post: 8943367, member: 6801845"] I don't want to get into this a great deal, but I can't imagine anything that they could do that would affect me one way or another. Right now, I like the option to buy just part of a book in DDB, I guess that qualifies as a microtransaction. It works great for me if I can just buy the monsters from an adventure module because I rarely if ever use modules.. I don't use VTT, so it doesn't affect me at all. But if someone is playing VTT and they want a custom mini and shiny toys? People will ooh and ah over it for a minute just like they do when I show off a freshly painted mini. Then they'll get on with the game. That shiny worth it to you? Cool. But there is no way that they can affect the actual play of the game in any appreciable way. I just don't see it. So there has to be something other than just "microtransactions bad" because there's nothing behind the curtain on that one. 🤷‍♂️ [/QUOTE]
