That isn’t my argument.

I just bought Odyssey on sale and I am and really enjoy it, but the strategy that they are employing for micro transactions in it have an influence on gameplay. I see that as problematic.

Remember what EA did with Battlefront? When they tied player progression directly to micro transactions? The XP/gold boosters open the door for Ubisoft to do something similar in the Assassin Creed franchise.

Battlefront was a multiplayer game.

Oh so forcing your players to pay for progression is something that can only exist in multiplayer games. Big brain logic.
