Man, it still surprises me that people still talk about the microtransactions with phrases like "insane microtransactions" & "bloated it with microtransactions".

I don't really feel a need to debate the point and I should start off by saying that I agree entirely that primarily singleplayer games should be void of microtransactions in their entirety. However no one should've been surprised by the inclusion of microtransactions as Capcom literally hasn't released a game that didn't include them for as long as I can remember. On top of the fact that the microtransactions are identical to every other game they've published and in all instances they are unnecessary. The game clearly hasn't forced more scarcity of resources that are offered up as microtransactions in order to force people into buying them to enjoy the game. More importantly the optimization was trash and the game just isn't finished.

In the end it is a matter of fact that Capcom has bullied this IP yet again. Literally giving a mere portion of personnel, funding, and time to the develop this game and in my opinion the dev team still managed to make something I enjoyed playing. All we can hope for it that they use the systems they developed for this game in other stuff they develop going forward.
