sadly this is Activision so more then likely they will patch them in later
they let you buy in game currency which wasn't the easiest to get at times, it's gotten alot better and pretty much anyone i know who plays the game hasn't bought any

Yeah - this is key. What did CTR end up looking like?
CTR was multiplayer focused which made online racing more of a focus so to do that with this game either they are fucking with the structure, making a multiplayer that's the actual focus, or going all in on skins.
If it has currency that's as easy to get as CTR's, then fine by me. It'll probably be there for your customizable skater, boards, and premium skaters. If we do get more maps then they'll probably be free.
Yes, 20 years ago, doing quite well in 1999 is not comparable to now.
Now even if you do well, you want more.
I mean, they already said MP is a focus in the trailer (just like how it was in the OG game).
Those were like 20 years ago?
It doesn't, really
This is my thoughts exactly. If they want to add extra content and then charge on top, that's not great, but it also means they're not making you pay extra for the original experience
It's Activision of course they are. Just look at MW Remastered.
How From got away from them putting some in Sekiro I have no idea.

Sekiro is single player only which seems to be the main way of avoiding all of this stuff
the Crash and Spyro Trilogy remakes were also singler player only and didn't get any Microtransactions either
they could easily sell new characters, outfits and map packs but YMMV how they're going to do it.
I have it preordered on amazon but I could just as well cancel it and wait for a $20 sale.

New decks, clothes, characters, e-motes, voice packs, you name it.
If the game gets good reviews for what's in it Day1 (without having to spend additional money) and later on decide to add in some pay for skins, or whatever, then that's fine with me.
If they build it like Crash Team Racing then you will be able to play the original modes of the game purely and be none the wiser about the MTX.
The MTX in Crash Team Racing are tied to the new content.
Not saying that makes it right, but at least there is a compromise for those who want a pure experience like the originals.
Sekiro also was just published in the west by Activision. FromSoftware and their parent company developed the game, so most likely Acti had no real say in that game's development.
This is the way.
But instead they will make the money up front AND in the back.
Gotta make sure my kid does not get into it then, he has no concept of money and I'd rather buy legos then virtual skate decks.
But that won't be day 1 dlc, it will be day 7 dlc and totally okay. They didn't cut it out during development to squeeze money out of you.
During development someone was like
"dude why don't we add THPS3 man, it's like similar to the other games n shit"
And the other dude was like "woah man we don't have time for this man, maybe during the last few weeks during development you know, when polishing and the designers don't have anything to do we can add that dude"
And they were like "yeah dude" and "duuuude yeah"
So it seems more like I am "Bobby dude maybe I'll wait till I get the game as a complete edition for 10 bucks man, dudeeeee"
yeah i don't get the "WONT BUY NOW" comments
What is the Mtx? is it just kart / character skins ?
god i hope so - no split MP community, just one big MCC style playlist... Dream Game right there
