I'm not sure what the best way is to handle post-game content. I dislike lootboxes and am totally fine with just earning them in the game. It really doesn't bother me if I'm playing as some boring looking character as long as I'm on an equal playing field (if not I'm playing something else). If the game is supported for 1, 3 or more years I'm overall fine with it if I don't feel like I get less of an experience.

You could argue that lootboxes aren't needed. You should be able to just buy microtransactions. But I wonder how this works out for them. Would the average person spend $5 or less to get what they want? I know it's less than lootboxes and that's likely enough for devs to not go for it anymore but I'm not really sure. If I can't unlock them at all without paying I actually consider this a worse model.

Then you have the traditional model of paying for map and character packs or a season pass. I'm happy this model is overall gone. It always felt like the userbase was fragmented. But yet what is the cost? Single player games however should absolutely follow this model.

I'm kinda glad I've moved away from multiplayer games for the most part. All of this stuff is just a headache. Only one I played this year is Splatoon 2 and I haven't played that for a while.
