If reception to Baldur’s Gate says anything, it’s that people hate microtransactions in their AAA games.

"Instead of getting more accepting of microtransactions these days because they’ve become so normalized, I’m moving the opposite direction. I genuinely resent Diablo 4 for sinking so, so much work into its $15-30 armor sets in the store when they could have been farmable in the game, and in-game sets are already starting to fall behind in the seasonal model."

You clearly don't resent it that much, considering you gave Diablo 4 a 9/10.

It's not a burn; it's a poorly constructed comment made out of context. The author's criticism on Diablo 4 is based within the context of Baldur's Gate 3's release. The review for D4 was written before BG3 was released.

I would be happy if MTX were just a default penalty rule on all game review scores. MTX: Yes. Score -2.
