No, dismissing because of shitty monetisation is great. It could not be implemented in the first place.
Buying a game without reading reviews is like buying a game with these shitty monetisation schemes.
Did you read his response at all? I'm a third of the way through the current battle pass, which does not have a premium track, and I've only played for a couple days. No money spent except for buying the game initially for less than a standard AAA price.
The game could also just not have a battle pass. How are people already so indoctrinated into their existence? No paid games should have extra monetisation in.
It's literally just a progression system. The pass never goes away, the paid currency doesn't even correlate with pass progress. It's literally just a progression system.
