For those who grew up without DLCs and microtransactions and games went unchanged after launch. How has the adjustment been to current day monetization and game updates? (kbin.social)

Mtx tends to warp game design around them in one way or another. Oftentimes the shop experience and things you can buy see the most dev attention, to the detriment of actual gameplay. Another side effect is that things you'd normally find satisfaction in unlocking through gameplay are relegated to the store instead.
