    Yeah that’s typically how microtransaction driven games work.

    See also:

    • League of Legends
    • Genshin Impact and other “gacha” games
    • Fortnite
    • digital TCGs

    (Also all of those are free to play, so minus points to helldivers for double dipping)

      We are not talking about “microtransactions in a game”. We are talking about pay to win. There is a huge difference, and Helldivers isn’t pay to win.
