It..shouldn't? I mean if you've seen the "loot box" drops - you get one every level, and you can purchase them, too.
but like, if you're looking to save money, the "base version" of the game is only $40, whereas the "Origins Edition" (which comes with skins and neat DLC for Blizzard's other games) is $60
The thing is, 40USD is about 58NZD, and 60USD is like 87NZD. I don't have heaps of money, I mean my job pays fairly well but it's only part-time and it just ended (I hope to do it again next trimester but there's no guarantee). That, combined with the fact that I'm a student (albeit living at home, which I admit eases things financially), makes this a purchase I have to think about. I'm also not used to buying games at these prices, most of my Steam library consists of Humble Bundle games and gifts.
"Emptying my wallet" was probably a bit of an exaggeration, but as I said I need to know that I'll put enough time into it to justify spending 58/87NZD. I'm not worried about micro-transactions, it's all cosmetic (as far as I know) and I don't intend to spend real money on that, it's just that the base cost is a substantial amount for me.
