I'm not a huge gamer anymore, at least not of newer games... aren't microtransactions a bigger problem in multiplayer games because it gives player willing to spend money an unfair advantage over skilled players?

not necessarily, they can be cosmetic only.

Sure, not necessarily... but in practice? Again, this is not something I have personal experience, but based on what I've read about it, it generally is about giving someone an advantage, isn't it?

Some of the older COD games had guns you could only get with real money, and they were overpowered. Nowadays it seems even free to play games have mostly cosmetic micro transactions.
