$70 price point for entry, microtransactions for stupid shit, and launches with severe technical issues.
I'm so sick of your shit Capcom.
When a game releases with multiple purchases along side it, it just means you chopped up my full price game and are charging me extra for what I should have already gotten
WWE 2k24 in infuriating like this. If you want the full game on release, it's actually like $150.
Exception to this is actual extras, like the game's soundtrack or access to concept art.
Supposedly a lot if not all of these micro transactions are simply faster unlocks to the content/feature, still though not a good look.
That just means they deliberately made the game tedious with the goal of annoying people into paying
This is what I've pieced together as well. Everything can be fairly easily found and used (or hoarded) in game. However, this in no way excuses the other issues.
That said, I don't blame the devs. Someone light the C-Suite bonfire.
If the devs know what they’re working on, they’re choosing to participate in it.
Peoole can't just quit their jobs because they don't like a few decisions by the suits. If that were feasible for everyone then the world would be a better place.
Following this thread of logic the thousands of devs laid off in recent weeks must be heroes. After all, if they don't have a job, according to you they can do no harm, and that's a good thing.
Unless you think someone who refuses to do the work they're assigned are likely to retain their position?
