    Exactly, they can just give you credit if they want to use that strategy. These games are just designed in such ways to get people to spend as much money as they can. Removing the virtual currencies makes the actual spend much more obvious, reducing the effect it can have.

    I think people will still spend a lot as they are far far too comfortable with games just offering skins for $20 now as the norm. It’s disgusting really where we are at with games like this these days. Remember when you just earned a skin through playing the game?
