RE: Animal Crossing: Pocket Camp Review - Tom Nook has discovered microtransactions
This is an interesting one. Grinding and Animal Kingdom are two things that go hand in hand. The game is certainly set up for the entire F2P mechanic with the series always running with timer based gameplay in the past.
Veterans of the series have noted that there is a little less freedom in this title. Everything is meticulously controlled, as is the nature of F2P on mobile. After a certain point, the title becomes less game and more forecast-able earnings model.
I get a feeling, especially with the Star Wars lootbox saga, that service funded games are reaching a crisis point.
