World Of Warships Players Are In Open Revolt Over Shady Monetisation Schemes
Over 20 of the game's most prominent members have quit the official community program since the weekend

Free online wargame World of Warships has been on thin ice with its community for a while now, but recent events—including the botched return of a fan-favourite ship—have seen many of the community’s biggest names quit the game’s official community program.
As MassivelyOP report, developers Wargaming have in recent years slowly been changing the way the game’s marketplace works, pushing more and more content behind loot boxes and random item unlocks that obfuscate a piece of content’s actual cost in real dollars. This has frustrated a playerbase that had grown accustomed to being able to either buy or grind their way into clear, desired purchases.
