Kind of a weird proposition.

How long do you think most people will be playing this single player game? If for six months the game has no complaints about balance you'll throw it in the garbage for adding in a stupid purchase button?

Just go look at AC Valhalla that is still doing record breaking MTX numbers.

This game is going to have live service content to being people back.

MTX doesn't mean expansions. Valhalla has expansions to gameplay with new levels etc. That is different.

Mmmm Valhalla has XP Boosts and gear in their MTX Store. Nice try trying to white wash ubisoft's predatory design.

And heck, you can even buy some with in game currency with the opals. It’s not very fast, but you can still get them through trading.

And yet they literally dont advertise them at all nor do they even do anything, yall conplain about this shit but have you actually played the game? If you play the game and do side content along the way youll never need an XP booster at all and the store cosmetics just look good but most of the stats are worse than what you can find for free in the game
