I remember people complaining about the Crash Team Racing remake's funny money and that was still fundamentally a game more than it was an instrument of financial speculation.

Quote from the latest (English) statement.

To all our players,

I am very sorry that bugs in the competitive modes of the game, and our lack of advance communication, have caused inconvenience to players.

The development team has come together and been working to fix all the bugs as soon as possible.

We have also heard many opinions about how additional DLC is implemented. We are considering this feedback seriously and putting all our efforts into making sure that we provide future updates that satisfy all fans who have purchased the game.

The first thing we have done is changed the Prize Level system for Chocobo GP mode to make it easier to increase your level.

We have also eased up on the overall requirements and have now made it easier to reach level 100, in particular. We hope players will take advantage of this to earn Cloud or some new vehicles.

We have also set our new design policy to readjust the metagame, so that it is easier for players to earn new characters once they have purchased the retail version of the game.

Taking this thinking further, we will now have cosmetic items, such as costumes that don’t affect gameplay, as the high-level Prize Pass rewards, or as items on sale in the Mythril Shop.

We are open to implementing additional changes to the game, and will continue to take all feedback into account and polish the game even further going forward.

We are also considering removing some of the restrictions on the Lite version to make it easier for streamers to hold events, so watch out for further news on that.
So basically the tl;dr is that new playable characters will be less difficult to get and won't be held hostage by the battle pass thing, which will go more the Pokémon Unite route and be more for cosmetic stoofs.

Better! Dunno if it’ll be enough to salvage this game, but hopefully the debacle will serve as a case study on overreach for other games tempted to go way too far on the service transactions bandwagon.

Yeah, it's going to take a lot to overcome the near-universal negative reaction to this game's launch. First impressions are powerful.

No doubt about it, but for better or worse games these days can turn out to be quite different than they were at launch. No Man's Sky basically 180°d from its disappointing launch days to a much more beloved experience 'cuz the team kept working on improving the game.

On the flipside though mobile Pac-Man is no longer recognizable as the game I once loved, ditching all the various reasonably unlockable mazes in favor of a more level-based structure with a pile of skins I don't care about. And not like, other Namco vidyagame skins like Pac-Man 99 has.
