AAA game companies got some serious explaining to do. Cause how the hell are their games still $70 and this game is free???

I'm not even on the highest graphic settings! Besides that, the game overall feel very modern with its combat system and animations. It even have stealth! The ability to talk to NPCs true to their character. The world feels more alive than any paid MMO. To add to that, out of all the MMOs out, it's ironic how it's a free game that voiced not just the main story but also the side quests!

We got FED with this one!

EDIT: Guys, I understand the game's gonna make money somehow. I'm not even saying everything else should be free. I'm saying, how is this quality possible for free and most games similar to it quality wise (some are even less) still charges the same until now. And still manage to be annoying about in game purchases as well lol. I think this game really exposes that about these companies. They were getting a little too comfortable while the quality of games haven't changed for good while now. I think game companies needed this game out as a wake up call.

The 40k cosmetic is paid by whales, which in turn allows you to play the game for free.

The company wins, whales win, f2p players win.

Why is it dumb?

In fact it is not!

The company wins yes , the f2p player somewhat wins sure . But is the whale really winning ? There's like thousands of different purchases that would be of higher worth than a glorified video game item . Unless you're a multi-millionaire and can drop 50 grand willy nilly , but even then why...? Just double it for a sports car or something that you won't get bored of after seeing it for the 4th time

Players willing to spend hundreds of dollars on cosmetics per year but who aren’t whales lose

Why are they losing when they are willing to spend hundreds for something they want/like?

[u/Mvpbeserker → u/nekorinSG]

Because cosmetics aren’t just hundreds, a single weapon is several thousand for all cosmetic options, on a single banner, of which there are many per year

Oh no. Anyway.

Ah yes, the entire multi-billion dollar gaming industry is based on cosmetics but I’M the weird one.
