Halo Infinite's problem isn't that there's a store where you can buy cosmetic items. It's that the game was built AROUND the store. Cosmetics took a priority over gameplay, features, etc.

What priority? Gameplay is fine to me and what missing features?

The previous Halo games prioritized features over microtransactions. There are tons of articles lamenting all the things left out of Halo Infinite e.g. https://screenrant.com/halo-infinite-launch-missing-features-forge-coop-multiplayer/

I see you were too young to have played previous Halo titles and so you immediately downvoted without giving a response. I'm sorry you're too ignorant to realize what they stole from you.
