    I can understand being upset with paying for levels, or in something like Battlefield being able to buy all the guns without ranking up and unlocking. Sure, you don't have to buy them, but it puts you below the playing field if you don't. It's sort of like a peer pressure. It probably wouldn't be so bad in a mainly cooperative type game like this, but certainly a competitive multiplayer game there is a decent advantage in higher tier weapons/perks/etc. So I sort of agree with that disdain, and I don't play any Battlefield or EA sports games as a result.

    But that kind of content inherently changes the game for you if you don't own it. None of the stuff on the mogstation inherently changes the game if you don't own it. It's all cosmetic and you can live without it. Some people argue that because they want it, it should be free, but that's not the way this stuff works.
