A good series ruined (Gaming)

This strategy is terribly weak, and likely won't convince anyone adding micro-transactions to stop. It doesn't at all address typically weak human will, especially when they're born and raised in a materialistic focused culture.


Better reason to make a strong Cody-like stance: if you buy the game and avoid the micro-transactions, next time they may just make it harder to avoid them.

If they go from harmless extras to necessary-to-win money pits then sure, I'd boycott an entire game. I guess my fear is that boycotting a good game with unintrusive micro transactions will send the wrong signal. That the game itself wasn't good enough instead of not liking a small, ignorable feature.
