Dragon's Dogma 2 players aren't happy about microtransactions.

Dragon's Dogma 2 got excellent reviews prior to the game's March 22nd launch, but you wouldn't be able to tell that by looking at the Steam reviews from users once they got their hands on the game. Over on that platform where reviews are most visible compared to consoles, the Steam review score quickly reflected discontent from Dragon's Dogma 2 players regarding the game's plethora of microtransactions.

Dragon's Dogma 2 MicrotransactionsSo, what's the deal with the optional purchases in Dragon's Dogma 2? Single-player microtransactions aren't uncommon in games with other series like Assassin's Creed embracing them in full, but as long as those are for extra, OP weapons or cosmetics, players generally don't have an issue with them.

The"Art of Metamorphosis" is another microtransaction that players have taken issue with. This one allows you to change your character, a feature which is largely standard in RPGs like this one given that you make your character in the very beginning before you have really any idea of what they'll actually be like over the course of the game.
