> anyone who bought games would laugh at you if you said every game that you paid $80 for would also have endless amount of small items that you can buy for real money.

> kids that grew up with Fortnite and Roblox just think that's the norm.

How so? Fortnite and Roblox don’t cost $80, they are free to play with in game purchases.

They’re F2P, but the social pressure from your friends to buy the next skin, mini game and etc. completely normalizes the behaviour as you grow up. Then you take it as a “usual thing” and don’t bat an eye when a game you buy also has different skins in the game.

At least that was my perception when I played Call of Duty with my younger family members.
