Why this game have a level cap? Every great game with this system don't have one and is a nice way to reward players. The rewarding system simply stop to work on level 100 and now I came back to Overwatch and Blackout where I feel my hours played are more well recognized!

So you're playing the whole game for level progress? Omfg.
When I was young people played to get better and because they loved to play. What happened to you people.

I'm torn on this because on the 1 hand i'm a bit addicted to seeing my time in a game representing my grinding towards an in game achievement, no matter how small - even a little progress bar of XP going up will satisfy me. Writing that out is kinda say to hear!
That said to suggest you're going to drop a game because it stops giving you that seems crazy to me, suggests we're not having the same level of fun actually playing the game.
I'm only level 30 so got a fair way to go - what exactly happens at level cap, does it just stop completely? No packs or legends tokens past that?

I can play to get better and because I love to play, a game that give me content as well as I'm playing it. And that's a plenty options of it like those that I said.
If the game reach a state that I can't find any new content, doesn't make a sense that I will stop to play until they offer new stuff?

@firebird-gabr1eL When I was young, people didn't judge others for the reason they wanted to play.
About the discussion at hand:
Pretty much every single PVP/online game out there has (at least as cosmetics) a progression system that rewards players the more they play. Even if you payed only 20,30 or 40$ to play overwatch, you are always going to be rewarded for playing without having to spend a dime.
A proper MTX system would be:
1)Loot boxes are gained at every lvl up (right now it's only once every two lvls past lvl 25 or so if I'm not mistaken). Once you reach 100 and you lvl to 101, you get a loot box + you are brought back down to 100 so you can relvl back up again.
2)Skins can be purchased directly with Apex Coins without having to find it in a loot box. Skins on "featured" page are on now put on "sale" at a reduced AC price.
3)The "featured" store page also sells some lower tier cosmetics (common and rare but not epic nor legendary) skins in exchange for Legend Tokens without having to use AC prior (unlike currently). As of right now, unless you buy the skins on the left with AC, you cannot buy the skins on the right with LT. So we're just piling up LT with no use once we got all legends.
That would be an incredibly more "respectable" microtransaction system. As of right now, I know a LOT if not all my friends and I will never spend a single dime in the game because of how predatory it is and when we do spend money, unless we buy stuff at ridiculous prices (c'mon, 1100 AC or 11$ USD minimum for legendary skins, and you can't even get 2 by getting the 2150 AC pack... really?) on the featured page, we are most likely to get jack squat of what we actually want via the loot boxes.

Yeah, no packs or legends, so you can get only 50 packs by playing the game.
Isn't about the pleasure, is about the lack of content to unlock. Even if it is cosmetic, would be some content to get.
