We need to get back to the old days, where you bought a game and that was that. I don't mind paying additional for DLC later on, but only if it adds to the game. Not any of this loot box/character clothing/additional cars/shark card bullshit.

Aren't additional cars and clothing adding to the game?

No, not really. I mean if you want to give me them as additional bonuses or whatever, without any real world cost, then no harm no foul. But it'll be a cold day in hell when I spend real world money on virtual clothing for a character in a video game. Ditto with cars (excluding the game itself).

What about for games where clothing and cars are the point of the game?
