I don't know why this sentiment is so popular. It's a single player game, most single player games don't have microtransactions... In fact I think it'd be odd and outside the normal if it did
@qwertyWarlord @AlecSadler I would like to respectfully disagree. Witcher 3 had DLC. Skyrim had DLC. Dragon age origins also had DLC. Many many single player games had DLC. I'm not sure where you're looking.
Dlc and mtx aren't really the same thing tho.
@StinkyRedMan got it. Sometimes it's hard to tell because in both cases I'm not getting a complete game or there's some sort of FOMO involved. Heh. I get what you're saying though.
There will most definitely be an expansion/enhanced edition for BG3. Expansions are not "in game purchases"
