It’s funny how people will chant “vote with your wallet” but when someone votes against business practices they don’t agree with using their wallet they’re all surprised pikachu about it.
Charging per quest in a micro transaction scheme (which isn’t really micro at all $10 entry fee) is shitty and I don’t want to support it by pumping their gameplay numbers right after announcing it.
i agree. i also never picked up cyberpunk because of the same reason. also rock band or guitar hero for its hiding content behind paywalls. i just stop playing 99% of games actually

Fun fact: when you need to resort to hyperbole it’s a good indicator that your position may not have merit.

After the shit show of a release that was starfield, yeah, I’ll avoid playing the game with optional paid content that reeks of greed.
