Does an MMO with no way to turn money into power exist? (beehaw.org)

I miss playing MMO's, but micro transactions ruin any sense of progression for me.

Any mmo's out there that fit the bill?

Cosmetics are fine, as long as you can't just turn around and sell said cosmetics in game.

You don't cost them anything for not playing part of their game, and you don't owe them anything.

If your interpretation of why they do this is right, it meand they want you to believe that "modern content" is a reward for playing through the rest. Nobody should think like that. Playing the game is the reward for playing the game.

It's like if Netflix made you pay an extra as you start watching a series on season 4, because you didn't pay your subscription through the three previous seasons.
