Microtransactions in general are the reason I avoid the majority of games like the plague, if you have to purchase the title and it's on PC. The only exceptions I accept is the one RPG series I play and the spin-off auto chess card game. They have it figured out, at least, that shoving the paid features down your throat is bad for the player.
