You can complain about that, but as long as people pay those amounts, those amounts will be charged. It's the market at work and all that. You say vote with your wallet - people ARE voting with their wallets. :)
Yeah but soon we will have Dota with every franchise possible. Also gaming industry is always pushing it a bit too far. Amount of mobas will soon reach level of ridiculous. I just wish studios would use their time creating something new. Unskippable and unpausable cutscenes are great choice!
For me, it's the juvenile sense of 'difficulty' that's been pervading most of my steam purchases. I beat most these games without breaking a sweat, and this is coming from someone who never beat any of the mega man games growing up.

Many games have incredibly fair micro-transactions (LoL, Dota 2, TF2, BLR, PoE, etc.) but people only think of the shitty cash grab F2Ps when they think of the model. Personally I think the model will be quite revolutionary in…
