Halo: MCC Edition is a paid game, and there are hacks for it. Call of Duty is a paid game, and there are hacks for each installment. Doom 2016 is a paid game, and there are hacks for it. Overwatch is a paid game, and there are hacks for it. Rainbow 6 Siege is a paid game, and there are hacks for it. Making the game free to play didn't cause hackers, they've always been in the gaming industry. Making the game paid won't get rid of them. They're already dropping hundreds of dollars for decently coded trainers. And if you want to try to claim PC made the hacking worse, sure, maybe it has, but you can easily jailbreak or cfw flash a Console, use modded controllers, or any number of other methods to hack. Might be harder or more time consuming, but it can be done. The monetized hamster wheel is another story, but let's be real, let's be honest, let's be real honest. Rather or not the game became paid again wouldn't get rid of the hypermonetized situation. The annual pass started during Season of the Forge, right? That was almost 2 years ago. Even if you want to bundle the pass with the DLC, the DLCs still cost money. The base cost of Beyond Light is 40 bucks, with the pass costing an additional 10 bucks. Shadowkeep, which had the pass included at base, was 35 bucks, so excluding the pass Shadowkeep was 25 bucks. That's a 60% increase at base. Even if you want to use the 35 amount, that's still a 14% increase. Eververse was introduced October 2015, so it's not new either as it was in the game, and was introduced into Destiny 2 around Curse of Osiris, which was a paid DLC. I'll now return the floor to you so you can make any counter arguments.
