Yeah warframe’s monetization being that shitty free to play model is prime era shitty f2p, and one of the main reasons why I now don’t play f2p games, battlepass, seasonal, or any of that other shit monetization.
I’ll pay 50,60,70,80,90,100 bucks once for your game, assuming it’s good enough…
BUT IT BETTER BE FUCKING GOOD ENOUGH

That’s the right approach, you’re right. I admire people with this mindset.
Idk why you’re getting down voted and not even why my post got down voted, I was hoping more from Lemmy users, I didn’t expect people to consent with those abusive and aggressive manipulative techniques they use.
I’m with you on this one my friend. Except… today I just pirate everything lol, but you’re free to pay of course.

Shrug. People like their ways. As I get older, elitism is somehow making less sense. But just as other people are allowed to like gambling or paying a ton to support a game they like in a way that I don’t, or even think is bad for everybody, so to, then, am I allowed to say what I think and they to downvote me for doing so.
I think people make whatever things they need to, work. I don’t like the effects it has on expectations within the community and industry, but if people enjoy paying into a game that may not even be fun… Then that’s kind’ve whatever.
For what it’s worth, I have heard the game is a good game, despite it having atrocious monetization. That’s just not for me, as it takes away far more than it gives.
It’s kind’ve like how everybody’s experiences are different, and so our perspectives are all different, and so then our values and opinions. I’m truly not even bothered by disagreement with my comment, I’m the one that came in here and offered up my negative opinion. And it has been read, and nobody’s been banned and nobody’s been hurt and everybody’s a little more aware of each other. That’s good jizz, to me.
I appreciate your support, though. I also wish rational discussion took place more often than screeching or mic dropping or other rhetoric. But, again, people do what they can, and it’s all good. No harm, no foul.
