Actual lv. 60 player here. (proof: https://twitter.com/minimaxir/status/1533201559776923650 https://twitter.com/minimaxir/status/1533201559776923650 ) There's an interesting amount of misinformation regarding MTX in Diablo Immortal. But the TL;DR is that the significant gameplay advantages from MTX only really apply at higher Paragon levels, requiring hundreds of hours to hit. The primary way of increasing power before that is the same as it was in any Diablo; get better gear, which can't be accelerated by MTX at all. Hitting lv. 60/completing the main story content is very easy and does not benefit much even if you did spend money to get 5-star Legendary Gems (although there are level gates once you hit lv. 35; daily quests provide the best way to get around those, those aren't paywalls). That takes about 20 hours, which is good value for a free game even if you bounce off.
