This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.
Be warned:
- Anon is often crazy.
- Anon is often depressed.
- Anon frequently shares thoughts that are immature, offensive, or incomprehensible.
If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

They can do that because you pay them when you buy other game remasters.
yes but so do other huge game companies on cosmetics, in game items, other spin offs. I agree it's not as easy but right now even doing this is unusual for most companies.
Very few game companies actually make a lot of money from cosmetics and ingame items. Most don't.
It's also stupid to think companies should do things for free. That's not the world we live in. It's an exception
That first point is not true at all. There are entire games built around the paid cosmetics. League of Legends and everyone who follows that model for example. There are more than a few, but you're right on the second point. I mean it's not nice to call people stupid, but I suppose that's not what we're discussing.
