They see money coming in, so they add more microtransactions.

Okay and? If they are purely cosmetic…why the fuck even care?

Do skins improve the game? No.

It’s ‘wasted’ effort that could be put into making a better game. It’s the concept of opportunity cost but applied to the quality aspect.

For me? Absolutely not. But I see plenty of people who love their skins.

Or, as my experience with the super cell games, it pays the bills and I get more content without paying anything. Seems like a win win to me. If they aren’t making any money from it, why are they going to create more content?
