This isn't a competitive game, so it's not pay-to-win

Yeah, that's not how that works. If you're paying for an advantage in performance over players who are not paying, it is pay to win. "Winning" is not a term exclusively reserved for PvP.

The article also doesn't address the presence of nProtect, which is still in place, and is one of the most cited reasons for negative reviews on Steam.

I forget which one, but people review bombed a game so hard they pulled their shitty anti-cheat, hopefully same can be done here.
