If you dont like this though i'm sure you are happy with your 15 year old games or the 2 dollar indie games on Steam that dont require extra money for any extras so you dont feel bad about not having everything(personal problem).
Yes, but most of the time the cash shop is for aesthetic things, or maybe xp boosts or stat buffs. There are plenty of games that do it this way that aren't indie or old. Locking out entire classes is going too far imo.

Yep.

Throwing your hands up in the air as you get your wallet out because "lol, 2015" is the real caveman thing to do.

Would rather buy some LoL skins or something. At least that's just aesthetic.

Haven't been Jewed by a game since Vanguard, except for CSGO. Bought some fly skins on there after swearing I wouldn't. But beasting with this awp is worth a few bucks.

Putting any money into a game with gameplay-altering cash shop is being a traitor to gamers everywhere. That's an ethical line I literally could not have dreamed being crossed when I was a naive little goy.
