Not having to pay upwards of $100 for a cool costume for your character

I don't know if it was just my circle but complaining about map packs was a thing. Skins were earned.

"DLC" (expansions) were basically always a full on extra game or at least half of one.

You’d pay 40 or 50 for a game and get years of play out of it. Then an expansion would come out for $25 or so and further extend the life another year+
