I remember when I was tired of looking at my character thinking, "I'd like to change my hairstyle, I'd pay $10 to do that."
A lot of these monetizations are not just thoughtless money grabs. Many of them are based on something that wasn't available when gaming was in it's infancy... the internet connection: blogs, forums, chats, and other direct feedback. They took information from the best players and consumers and listened to them. Are they still doing that? I'm not 100% sure, but I cannot today think of ANY single company that is shareholder driven that holds to their founding principles.
