It's a coop game and what they're describing sounds more like "progression" than microtransactions. Unlocking new things is a core gameplay mechanic going back to before the Internet. Did I miss where it implies anything about microtransactions or pay to win (again: coop game)

If it's that, then all good. I'm just traumatized by what publishers have been putting out lately.

Fair enough, I felt it important to clarify (and check) so these developers and Team 17 aren't unfairly punished by the general state of the industry.

It doesn't seem like you need to worry here.
