I'm pretty sure that people pirating games have little to do with the current surge micro transaction filled games. It's the opposite, the people who buy all that shit and let companies get away with it are to blame.

Politely disagree, as live service and micro transactions are part of the greater push by the industry to take away physical and/or perpetual ownership of the games we buy. The people who pay aren’t perpetuating the push, they are simply victims of it.
