It's purchasable in-game for chump change ya dinguses.

Oh good*, that's how it was in the first game. I was worried because they did do paid vouchers with no ways to gain them in Monster Hunter Rise.

*Not exactly good as it feels like someone somewhere is getting exploited still but there is relief

Yeah it's weird. It seems like they are targeting fools cause I don't know who would spend real money on in-game cheap af consumables. Still rather they wouldn't, but whatever.

Feels like execs wanted microtransactions and the devs threw this around to satisfy them.

There are some demographics - people with adhd, some autistic people, some people with compulsion issues, who are very vulnerable to this bullshit. Ask me how I know (adhd, bipolar depression) but don't ask me for an itemized list of my year to date spending on mtx.
