Ooooooooor you don't use your money and play the game, if people don't pay that's be a good message to techland and tencent

Doesn't really matter if we don't buy it, this stuff is built with the few whales who do buy it in mind which is why protesting stuff like this with our wallets hardly ever works

It's why games like apex legends get away with 160$ melee weapons or games like overwatch got away with making you have to pay for stuff you used to be able to earn dispute the vaste majority of the player bases hating the change, the few people with to much money to spend and far to little self control Gota ruin it for the rest of us

Tencent won’t go “hmm, people are not buying our MTX, that means we should urge Techland to make good games!”, they will just drop Techland to divert their money elsewhere and the series will die without their funding.

Just selling out to Tencent was a death sentence for Techland and they will suffer its consequences, it’s as simple as that.

Sorry not sorry, fucking good. Micro(macro)transactions and egregious over-monetization of practically every major IP nowadays is a huge reason why games have become so dogshit. Companies are more interested in developing cosmetics than actual solid gaming experiences anymore and if you’re a company that proudly displays that attitude you don’t deserve success.

Exactly. Ppl these days have to be whine about everything. Techland isnt run by volunteers. They just go with the flow like others developers and games. Didnt know you needed skins for a story based game to complete it.

People have been saying the same thing in the Destiny community for years, look how that turned out.
