Honestly I am not sure if it would have changed review scores because it honestly feels like get a +5 levels in an JRPG pack. I enjoy grinding in Jrpg's and working to a goal. Adding the option to buy wumpa coins while close to a 100K people 'almost' completed the pit stop seems weird and is aimed to the same people who just want to buy levels in a JRPG. 

That doesn't really make it any better. It's still a company adding microtansactions to a game long after launch, and effectively bolting a free-to-play economy to a remaster of a 20-year-old game that you still have to pay real money to get. This isn't even the first time Activision's done this, and I have no patience for this stuff. I don't mind microtransactions in free-to-play games as I understand they need to get their money somehow, but I will never buy them in games you pay money for. All they do is make me less likely to ever buy those games, and certainly reinforces my decision to just never buy games at launch again.

Their latest CoD definitely comes to mind with their heavy MT's, or Ubisoft in the past with "macro" transactions. AAA knows exactly what they are doing and what they want, and what they want is more money and an upfront cost, not the silly illusion of "choices", not when they have a cost entry level barrier to them.
