"“615 SC for a primary weapon is straight-up ridiculous,” wrote user Goopmaster_ in a top-upvoted post on the Helldivers subreddit. “”
This is what passes for news today… Holy shit.
“Commenters online are SLAMMING pcgamer’s article on the Helldivers 2 controversy - click for more details”
slaacaa destroys PCGAMER’s coverage of the helldivers2 microtransaction implementation.
“First time?”
They released the rest of the kill zone stuff for free
Who the fuck is complaining? All the players I’ve played with think the armors awesome
I don’t get the bitching. Is it brutally expensive? Yes. Do you have to buy it? No. In terms of stats the gun is nothing special, the armor is quite good, but not essential. For a one time crossover, it’s fine.
They hire psychologists to explicitly figure out how to better make sales. Logical thinking will not win. Microtransactions, which consists of crap you don’t need, is a billion dollar industry and has bankrupted numerous homes.
Nobody is forcing people to buy anything, you CAN resist.
“This doesn’t affect me therefore it should be a non-issue for everyone else.”
Thats true in a surface level way. Buts its equally true about cigarettes, heroin any other adictive substance you can think of.
In-app purchases and limited time game passes are hardly heroin
No but your argument that no-one is forced to buy cigarettes is equally valid to arguing that for micro-transactions. One is chemically adictive, the other uses physchological tricks and is almost entirely unregulated.
Helldivers players have no idea how good they have it. What a bunch of whiny entitled losers lmao
