Again, I'm sorry if it offends you I refuse to make excuses for multibillion dollar corporations crying poor and pretending they're too broke to stop fucking over consumers Tmaster148 posted... Says the person obsessed with getting it from behind. I think you might just be frustrated. Nah, I pity you more than anything --- |

Nah, it's just an accurate metaphor for people defending microtransactions in paid games Tmaster148 posted... They are a business not a charity. Where in business school does it say you have to be as contemptous and cynical towards your audience at every turn? --- |

ZombiePelican 09/06/17 1:52:47 PM #66 | Asherlee10 posted... That's my perspective. If someone wants to pay to get what you can get normally with a bit of a grind, that's their business. You do understand that the grind was intentionally put there for the sake of goading real money out of you, no? Tmaster148 posted... 'm not looking for masterpieces, just something to enjoy my free time I'm not either but I can't enjoy my free time if I'm constantly being begged for money after I already paid upfront for a game --- |

No. Never Tmaster148 posted... This isn't some thing that's only a problem with the game industry. Tmaster148 posted... This isn't some thing that's only a problem with the game industry. And this justifies microtransactions in games people paid upwards of upwards of 60 dollars for how exactly? Tmaster148 posted... but I will also avoid games that go overboard with it. If the game is still fun even with p2w elements, the p2w elements might not actually be that game changing. This is exactly what I'm talking about, svsn if the game is p2w you'll still take the bait of publishers, why not put your foot don amd demand actual quality instead of just shurugging your shoulders, bending over and spreading your cheeks? kirbymuncher posted... Their prevalence in games has been ramping up somewhat recently too I wonder why that is? It's almost as if the sound of the overhwelming No from the community to publishers is beinf drowend out by the sound of a few whales singing. --- |

ZombiePelican 09/06/17 12:51:27 PM #38 | Tmaster148 posted... I don't, but you call anyone who says anything remotely against your topics a shill. When you defend greed driven tactics that only benefit publishers, that makes you a shill. No ands, if, or buts about it. Sorry pal kirbymuncher posted... Looking at this topic it's pretty clear awful microtransactions are here to stay :/ Only if you let them by accepting defeat Tmaster148 posted... . They make a lot of money and help pay developer wages after the game releases so companies don't need to fire talent and hire new people between projects. Stop parroting this ridiculous lie spewed from the mouths of publishers , the only people who get any profit from microtransactions are the executives who run publishers. Developers see not a single penny from the sale of any part of a game launch under a publisher, you're ony showing you have a child's understanding of this industry Tmaster148 posted... don't need to fire talent and hire new people between projects. I can't tell if this is bait, satire, or both --- |

ZombiePelican 09/06/17 12:30:07 PM #25 | Tmaster148 posted... Not at all. Not liking your opinions towards stuff due to how it's always negative != you to stop posting. No, it's entirely the fault of publisher for making almost all news about them negative. If Publishers would just stop hobbling their games with their greed I wouldn't need to report it and you wouldn't need to get so assblasted Tmaster148 posted... You can keep posting all you want, your opinions are just worthless. Why, Because I am a consumer advocate, demand actual quality of the games I play a well as from publishers and refuse to make excuses for multibillion dollar corporations who flat out do not deserve people playing devil's advocate for them? Tmaster148 posted... But maybe you would be more likeable if you didn't call anyone who doesn't like your posts a corporate shill. Maybe if you didn't shill for greed driven tactics that only benefit publishers, you wouldn't get called one, ever think of that? --- |

If they wouldn't keep doing this shit I wouldn't need to report it. Tmaster148 posted... You just want to hate everything and since you reliably hate everything there's no reason to take you seriously. I don't WANT to hate anything, I want to just play videogames, but big publishers just won't allow that and drive me to hate them and their avarice --- |

ZombiePelican 09/05/17 12:13:51 PM #42 | I guess in our case it's a bit more "forgivable" considering most of that wealth was lost quite long ago, No it is not all, every trace of monarchy needs to be purged and the bloodlines completey eliminated off the face of the Earth. These families need to pay in blood for the centuries of oppression they caused, not live easy cushy Kardashian-esque lives of fame and luxury and still be showered praise from people whose ancestors most likely suffered under their ancestors. That goes for monarchs everywhere not just Sweden. I also love that because I refuse to blindly worship and bow before the ancestors of people who caused so much pain and suffering to the world, I'm classified as a troll. Lol just lol --- |

Lol no. Hang them all, monarchs have no place in modern society Zikten posted... the french revolution was a horrifying act of pure evil. Lol what's this? The French Revolution is one of humanity's crowning achievements, the poor were tired of being oppressed by greedy aristocrats so they all came together to give them what they deserved, death. Zikten posted... read up on history before you say something so f***ed up and ignorant I'm sorry I have little to no sympathy or remorse for a group of people who now sit pretty on thrones living a life of infinite luxuries that was given from their ancestors systematic oppression of indigenous people and your average citizen at the time --- |

If people thought they were slow and boring because of the combat, then no way Final Fantasy would have made it this far Because the core audience won't be enough when Square spends 50+ million dollars on the game.
