That’s not how things work at all. Just because something’s free means you can’t criticize it? Where is that written?
Yea, beggar cannot choose. Take it or leave it. Free market will dictate it. People don't like this harrasment approach? Valorant will die by itself.
So many entitled brats, you cant even offer suggestions. Just criticism for the sake of it.
“Choosing beggars” is someone who wants more or better than what they were offered. Criticizing the offering for flaws and problems is not.
IOW - I get a free chicken sandwich. I demand better toppings, a free drink and chips on the side. There’s a roast beef available, how come I didn’t get that? That’s a choosing beggar.
The chicken sandwich is undercooked, the bread is dry. That’s what’s happening here. Criticism.
I mean... I don't disagree with your original point (within reason) but the guy complaining about the free chicken sandwich kinda sucks too? Idk about yall but I would never say that to someone who gave me free food. Think it's just a rough metaphor for this situation, where Valorant is still trying to make money from in game purchases.
So if someone gave you a free sandwich but then also offered the exclusive place to sell mayonnaise, seasonings, and pickles, you're fairly entitled to say "eh, this base product is kinda lacking and doesn't entice me to come here".
Complaining about free chicken sandwich.... What a moron.
Or you could see it as it is. A community that's passionate about the game, and games in general, giving feedback to the developer about why their game might die so that this game or future games might be more consumer friendly. Only someone who is overly critical/cynical assumes any and every feedback is whining and complaining.
This one is whining. No alternative, just complaining.
