You’re not accepting more expensive entertainment either. You’re pirating it. None of these games were made with less effort; they’re typically just made by fewer people. Adding more people to the project doesn’t make the game any better, or else Ubisoft games would be the greatest games ever made. I think I see why you’ve got this perspective that’s completely divorced from reality. Yes, most games have microtransactions if you completely disregard most games. I’d encourage you to give some of those games you’re ignoring a try.

Buying it is unrelated to accepting it.

I respectfully disagree.

Lol, what? I think you’re just getting upset at me because I don’t like the low-effort games you enjoy.
Yes, most games have microtransactions if you completely disregard most games.
Right, and most of the games that interest you don’t interest me.
I’d encourage you to give some of those games you’re ignoring a try.
I’m good. You’re using me to try and justify your own enjoyment of what you spent your money on. It’s fine if you like things that I don’t like and vice-versa.
It’s fine if you’re completely ignorant of the great games that have come out lately, but I wouldn’t consider it admirable to be proud of being this ignorant about great games or how they’re made.
Lol. You think ‘blue prince’ took as much effort to make as Crash Fucking Bandicoot or Metal Gear Solid and I’m the one who is ignorant about great games and how they’re made?
I’m guessing you never even played those games so you have no point of reference. You should try emulating them, then you can experience what it’s like to play great games completely free of charge. Heck, you might even raise your standards as a result going forward.
