      There was a period in Minecraft where predatory mtx were going as hard as they do in Roblox

          People set up private servers and then sell use of admin commands or mods for real money. Stuff like 100 diamonds spawned in for $5. If course mods make it more seamless by implementing currency systems directly into the game, but the basic premise is selling in game power for real money. It’s extremely popular to do this in other games like Rust and Ark as well

      My kids still have a Nintendo DS and Minecraft. It was the last handheld to not be designed from the ground up for internet connectivity.
