Pokemon Unite is exceptionally bad in that regard, though. You can be heavily monetized and not have literally five different premium currencies to keep people from realizing how much they're spending. Kimbos_Egg posted... are they fucking crazy with that nso pricing?? Yeah, that's too much. Tacking on the AC DLC for "free" makes it a bit more palatable, but that's not particularly meaningful for those that don't play AC, and $30 for a year of access to two dozen old games that are available in many other places is just asking way too much. If they make a habit of adding in other large DLC's, I might call it worthwhile, and it'll get a bit better once the library expands a bit, but if the lethargic drip feed of NES/SNES games is any indication, I don't expect the N64/Genesis libraries to ever be worth that much. I was expecting $10 extra, in which case I'd have checked it out once the library expanded to include N64 games I don't already own. Maybe $15. $30 is ridiculous. --- This is my signature.
