EA's Skate reportedly has microtransactions added-in before it's out in early access, seemingly because its alpha test is also aiming to get feedback on buying stuff

It's a free to play game, is anyone really surprised they intend to add microtransactions?
I recommend reading the source rather than blog spam: https://insider-gaming.com/ea-adds-microtransactions-to-skates-closed-alpha/
EA can lick my asshole daily
They'd probably charge you for it
At least for once you'd actually be getting something from paying EA for a service
Electronic Arts games have mtx. Full stop. Expecting anything else is delusional. Sure, it's a great day when, in modern times, they release a game without any. But, you know, hell freezing over first and all that.
edit: and even without mtx, I'm not sure they make games anymore that even remotely interest me, probably, I haven't checked in a while. Last I checked was ME2, iirc.
I'm absolutely sure this is going to suck. What a way to wreck a legendary franchise. These games were sooo good too. Shame on EA
