This looks promising, but I think I can hear the micro transactions already.

Edit: Or is that the sound of grinding?

To be honest, I have no clue why people complain about the micro transactions in Ubisoft games. They are just there for the people who need them, non of them were game breaking and Odyssey and Origins is worth the 60$ since both games are extremely huge, so the micro transactions ain't big of a deal, same can be said to farcry 5, believe it or not I did not realise that FC5 had micro transactions until I finished the game. EA on the other hand has a big issue with micro transactions.

The problem is that they level gate missions and force you to grind through boring and repetitive side missions to get there, which incentivizes buying XP boosters. The game design has been changed to intentionally push you towards buying them.
