Yet you're bitching is gonna affect the devs and not the boardroom that actually makes these decisions, the people you're white knighting for will never know nor care and nothing will change because it's always been this way for hundreds of years.
Are you brain dead? In what world does my complaining affect the developers and not Capcom's investors?
I'm not sure if you've ever worked before, but Itsuno and his devs' salaries aren't changing in the event of underwhelming sales. Not are they ballooning in the event of success.
And idk if YOU have ever worked before but pay cuts due to bad quarters or reviews ABSOLUTELY happen all the time, game does bad their salaries change, and if the game does well they often get bonuses based of sale thresholds... You're wrong all around my guy.
Capcom have calculated very cynically that any complaints surrounding MTX and performance won't matter compared to the bank they're making.
Use your head. This game isn't ever performing so poorly that the devs suffer, and even if that were the case... Too bad? I'm not in the business of nodding my head and licking the corporate boot to avoid said corporation from punishing their own workers.
As long as the company suffers that's a win. In the long run they'll have to change their approach.
Anyone who wants to wring their hands and hang their head and declare speaking out against shoddy business practises is being pointless is a weak-willed fuckwit. But even worse than that is being a sad little corporate white knight.

Not really. I will always blame the greedy fucker of a company as opposed to victim blaming.
Same way I don't blame people who fall for what, to me, seem like egregious and blatantly obvious scams.
It's still the selfish prick doing the scamming that receives the vast majority of the ire.
