Games haven’t gotten better since the 70s? Lol if you honestly believed that, then micro transactions would be a complete non issue for you because there are countless games out there from before micro transactions, and without them at all, that you could spend a whole life playing.
But let’s be honest here, games have gotten better which is why you want to play the news ones.
I’ve played a lot of super cell games and never paid a dime. Years and years of fun across multiple games, with new content coming out all the time. All funded by micro transactions paid by others.
Now I don’t approve of the gambling aspect of some and p2w can be bad if done incorrectly. But cosmetic purchases that take little time to create and can generate tons of money so I don’t have to pay? Sign me up every fucking day for that. Please pay so I don’t have to.
No, I meant the overall quality of games has not gotten better since the introduction of microtransactions as an industry wide concept.
And that tracks with how I play games. The majority of games I play were released prior to 2015. I don’t play competitive games, multi-player games, or any of the kinds of games that are usually full of microtransactions. I never have. The few games I do play from the last few years are ones that lack microtransactions.

I can’t follow this. At what point did it become and industry wide concept? You are talking about buying games that don’t have them. I have played many new games that don’t have micro transactions (unless we’re including expansions).
And I have not said that micro transactions have made games better, just that it’s better for me because I don’t have to pay.
