Was there any promise, in any way, of cosmetic items for the release of the game, at the price you paid for it? In the original pitch of the game, was that included?

Don't know, don't care. Microtransactions have absolutely no place in a game you paid full price for and adding them to a game that isn't even fucking done with being developed is more contrived and greedy than anything any AAA publisher has done

If not, this is an extra feature they are adding above and beyond what was promised in their game plan. It is something that you do not, in ANY WAY, have to participate in

Fucking STOP, you literally just played the "they're optional" fallacy again after I just shot it down, can you come up.with a unique argument that isn't PR bullshit spewed from Bluehole?

Loot boxes have some inherent features that are designed to make money as opposed to being pro consumer. This is true. This will also be involved in MANY games for many years to come. Hopefully they do add a feature where you can just "buy that costume" instead of going through the loot boxes. That is ideal, no question.

You're showing your naivete if you truly believe they'd do that. They want lootboxes because you're not guaranteed to get the cosmetic item you want. Why would you want someone to just pay 5 bucks to buy a skin outright when you can force them to buy lootboxes that have a high chance of NOT getting what you want

You are giving these devs WAY too much credit and it's embarrassing how naive you are
