15 Worst Examples of Microtransactions In Video Games

War Thunder

In this devastatingly addictive plane combat title you can only spawn in a plane once per game. If you want to take that particular jet for a joy ride, you have to dish out some cash. Each respawn in a plane you already flew costs money. While this could be a way to push players to try out all the game has to offer, it just doesn’t make sense to gate so much of the game behind currency. Part of the fun of multiplayer games is practicing and becoming a pro with a particular gun or vehicle. This system doesn’t allow for that at all, and probably pushes a lot of first time players away.
