    Maybe they’ll sell a microtransaction that allows people to start over.

      I was joking around but I just read that is literally true, what the hell?

        No, it’s not literally true. There’s an MTX to re-customize your character (not start a new game), which seems to be an option in-game too but maybe later or maybe it’s expensive.

        I hate having to “defend” these MTX but everyone is misrepresenting what’s going on…
