Path of Exile players pay this and more with a smile on their faces, but yeah the game is "free to play" (you can barely play the game without buying storage tabs).
For $20 you can buy enough stash tabs to happily play for years with nothing else. You do need more storage and the map tab is very helpful but most of the specialized tabs are not really needed. I have most of the specialized ones and I could easily live without them. So it's a $20 game in my multi-1000 hours in-game opinion. The cosmetic microtransactions are a mixed bag but some are very cool. Compared to the money I spent on D4 which didn't give me much in return, it is not in the same ballpark.
