Bottom line is you dont have to use tokens
It's your CHOICE ..it's an option
No one forces you to at all
How do you know someone doesn't need all the cars to fully enjoy the game? Their enjoyment of the game may come from collecting cars.
Where in my post did I say this game is balanced around microtransactions? I was making a general statement towards all games.
People do need to grind if they want everything though. My definition of grinding is needing to repeat things over and over in order to get ingame money, this game fits that definition perfectly as once you've finished every race, you'll be going back over repeating things.
If things start to be balanced around microtransactions, that stops people playing the game they want to without having to pay more and more on top of the high price they've already paid for the game itself.
While tokens have indeed been in the last 4 Forza games, I'm still very distrusting of microtransactions in general. Companies will start to get greedier and greedier with them as they become more accepted in their game(s) *cough* Rockstar *cough*.
This "rubbish" indeed gets brought up every time because it's bad business practice, and not consumer friendly.
Bottom line is while now I don't need to, I don't trust them not to start balancing future games around them, I don't trust any developer not to one they've started sneaking them in.
If it carries on, and games start being balanced around microtransactions, it comes down to a choice of ponying up the cash for those microtransactions, or stop playing the game full stop.
