Exactly my feelings as well, even “time saving” MTX is insidious because it provides an incentive for the developers to slow progress to entice users to buy the mtx.
I’m mostly fine with cosmetic-only MTX but that’s because I’m able to control my impulses on buying those kinds of things the majority of the time, unfortunately I have known people who are not good at impulse control and end up spending literally thousands of dollars on bullshit cosmetics. They don’t even play the game they spent all that money on anymore.

I mean one is literally required to play the game, the other does not.
So depending on what micro transactions are available, it seems worse to require a monthly sub then have truly optional/cosmetic mtx
