Born just in time to finance horse armor.
If a game company tries to convince customers to finance DLC or microtransactions, their products are probably shit

Is there literally anything that would be worse to use financing to buy than DLC?
You can finance pulls for a gacha game, if you want something worse.
Using financing to buy microtransactions?
This really is a new low - Get people hooked on your game with addictive mechanics. Suck the money out of them. When they're broke, drive them into debt

Uh nice! Good combination with all those social security number and credit card leaks.
