Rules:
- 1: No spam or advertising. This basically means no linking to your own content on blogs, YouTube, Twitch, etc.
- 2: No bigotry or gatekeeping. This should be obvious, but neither of those things will be tolerated. This goes for linked content too; if the site has some heavy "anti-woke" energy, you probably shouldn't be posting it here.
- 3: No untagged game spoilers. If the game was recently released or not released at all yet, use the Spoiler tag (the little ⚠️ button) in the body text, and avoid typing spoilers in the title. It should also be avoided to openly talk about major story spoilers, even in old games.

I saw a $100 bundle of in-game currency and decided I'd rather not play.
But they just buy skins and stuff. You don't need to pay to play, it won't help you win.
I wouldn't pay $100 for an entire game. It grosses me out that someone is expected to spend $100 on cosmetics. Like obviously not everyone, but that it's even possible is rather horrifying. Especially since it doesn't stop there. You can buy multiple packs, and it's fully expected that some people will.
And it's true that some people will, but those people exist whether the game offers it or not. If The Finals won't offer it, then they'll just spend their money elsewhere.
