    I don’t know where the term micro came from because $20 skins are not a “microtransaction”. Hell the $4 microcontrollers I just bought from Aliexpress weren’t a microtransaction. “Micro” makes me think in the sub-$1 range or so.

      The idea was sold as being one whereby we would pay pennies/cents for a skin someone had designed, yet it’s turned into dollars (tens or hundreds of) instead, with giants taking huge advantage of us.
