Video Game General

If only the Dreamcast 2 was real.

@Carcass Strife  
Can you pay to get over it?

@Meanlucario  
Yep, in fact, it’s actually designed that way. Capitalism, amrite?

@Wiimeiser  
Of course it’s a freemium game.

 
 

Why are people crying over Mortal Kombat 11’s costumes rather than it being a grindy mess?

Of course… I suppose this is at least better than when Mortal Kombat 10 added a patch a week after release to make it necessary to do that, but it’s still shitty.

@Jarkes  
Add a grind to force players to pay more for their game on top of the season passes and editions, nobody bats an eye. Make the female characters not look like strippers and everyone loses their minds.

@Meanlucario  
Dead or Alive 6 has this too… I think.

@ExtreVile  
So players are more concern about their very softcore porn than the fact that their games are being screwed over in order to exploit them?

The League of Legends Champions vs. The Overwatch Heroes.
 
Who wins?

@Meanlucario  
Pretty much, I know we’re all weird like that.

@ExtreVile  
More like idiots.

@Meanlucario  
Hey, if it’s not your thing, don’t buy it.

@ExtreVile  
I’m talking about caring more about characters not looking like strippers than the game being made worst to force consumers to pay more than the $100+ initial price of the base game, season passes/DLC, and the “upgrade” editions that sell what was in the base game at one time.

@Meanlucario  
That’s taking the EA route am I right? I rather get the bundled version of the game.

I’m feeling depressed. I’m just not excited for any game anymore. Because it’s almost always got some bullshit attatched to it.

@ExtreVile  
EA, Activision, Wander Brothers, they’re doing the same thing because it’s easy to exploit players using brand recondition to sell worst products at a higher price.

At least Nintendo tries to make good games.

@Meanlucario
 
The problem there is that I don’t really like Nintendo’s Ip’s. I don’t care for Zelda or metroid or Smash etc

Best part is that, according to the Reddit page, what MK11 is doing is basically loot boxes under a different name, proving that Battlefield 2 may have gotten people curious about loot boxes, it didn’t get them to actually look into what made them hated, and as a result allows companies to make not-loot-boxes that behave and sound like loot boxes without the dirty word being used.

@gingerninja666  
Can’t help you there, sorry.

@Meanlucario
 
Hence the depression.

@gingerninja666  
You do realize Nintendo has non-Nintendo related games on there, right?
