Dude. I get that. If that was the case here I'd be up in arms too. But it's not. Not even close. This is the equivalent of complaining that you didn't get the "Twin Humanities" starting gift in dark souls. It honestly is inconsequential to the experience while playing the game. NOTHING is worth paying for and anyone saying that hasn't played the long enough to realize that. The game is perfectly playable in every aspect and you miss out on nothing.

It's not about being worthy or not. It's about pushing a new status quo of being acceptable to have MTXs on a 70 USD game.
