No, I meant the overall quality of games has not gotten better since the introduction of microtransactions as an industry wide concept.

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.
