They hire psychologists to explicitly figure out how to better make sales. Logical thinking will not win. Microtransactions, which consists of crap you don’t need, is a billion dollar industry and has bankrupted numerous homes.

Nobody is forcing people to buy anything, you CAN resist.

“This doesn’t affect me therefore it should be a non-issue for everyone else.”

Thats true in a surface level way. Buts its equally true about cigarettes, heroin any other adictive substance you can think of.

In-app purchases and limited time game passes are hardly heroin

No but your argument that no-one is forced to buy cigarettes is equally valid to arguing that for micro-transactions. One is chemically adictive, the other uses physchological tricks and is almost entirely unregulated.
