This article needs additional work to meet the wiki's Content Guidelines and be in line with our Mission Statement for comprehensive coverage of consumer protection issues. In particular:
- Microtransactions by themselves might not qualify as a consumer protection issue (see mission statement and inclusion guidelines) but the way they were intruduced and how they are use may warrant documenting
- The claim of connection to servers being required needs a source and expansion in order to paint a clearer picture
This notice will be removed once the issue/s highlighted above have been addressed and sufficient documentation has been added to establish the systemic nature of these issues. Once you believe the article is ready to have its notice removed, visit the discord and post to the #appeals
