Even if he doesn't buy the coins or isn't their target, he's embracing a grindier, less fun experience than he otherwise could have, all in the name of some stupid tribalism for the game or the company. He needs to have the courage to ask for a better game. I can admit that the game isn't far enough from the original to make it a terrible game, and that it's in fact pretty good, because again, it's a remake of a kickass game, but we've been denied an experience even on the level we've ALREADY HAD in the original, in terms of the grindiness. There is nothing entitled about asking for the experience of a 20 year old game to be wholly improved over the original, with no needless monetization schemes weighing it down, no compromises. The grindiness was there since release, and made the game worse than it otherwise could have been, so his "it's no different than before the microtransactions" argument is hogwash and irrelevant.

I don't find the grind unfun. In fact I've always enjoyed unlocking things. That's what games always used to be about in the PS1/PS2 days. Smash Bros Melee made you play 24 hours to unlock a character.

I love unlocking things too, but you're seriously telling me you'd rather spend more of your limited life and gaming time grinding the same shit over and over again? Let me guess, you like the sense of pride and accomplishment? Give me a break. You're in denial.
