I did not expect the Battlefront 2 solution to spread. What exactly is happening out there?

Here's the really interesting part for me: a developer is publicly acknowledging that microtransactions impact the game for all players, even if you personally never purchase any of them.
This is a fantastic development for this game at least, and maybe it signals bigger currents moving the industry...

The ability to purchase Gold will permanently cease on May 8, 2018. The permanent removal of Gold, War Chests and the Market will take place on July 17, 2018, at the same time as all other updates discussed above.

(emphasis mine)While purchasing Orcs in the Market is more immediate and provides additional player options, we have come to realize that providing this choice risked undermining the heart of our game, the Nemesis System. It allows you to miss out on the awesome player stories you would have otherwise created, and it compromises those same stories even if you don’t buy anything. Simply being aware that they are available for purchase reduces the immersion in the world and takes away from the challenge of building your personal army and your fortresses.
