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

Some microtransactions are fine for free-to-play games and MMOs; I don't really like seeing them in full-priced games, especially if I feel it's engineered in a way to make me pay to play. It's why I avoid mobile games in general, playing them feels very predatory.
