My goal is just to have a community where people can go and see what new game news is out for the day and comment on it.
Other communities:
Publishers at the slightest inconvenience: We are getting review bombed.
Capcom can join Blizzard, EA, Ubisoft & Frontier Developments on my "Never Buy" list.
I've been living under a rock.. What has frontier developments done?
Way back when Elite: Dangerous was being Kickstarted it was shilled as bascially a 3D Neverwinter Nights in space with players having access to a toolset & being able to create their own private servers. This was the only reason I was interested in yet another space sim game.
A while after the Kickstarter was over, they completely changed the premises of what they wanted to make into what you see on Steam now. And were absolute assholes about it.
The change was so egregious, that I was able to charge-back my Visa several months after the original donation.
I'm sure the game is nice, but it wasn't what I was sold on.
(And don't bother giving me any crap about Kickstarter, I've had a good experience using it, even with the few campaigns that I donated to that still haven't delivered yet, looking at you Witchmarsh)
I love Elite Dangerous, but that sounds way cooler. Im still kind of pissed about the lack of ship interiors. Something that was promised way back when.
Is this an always online game? If not, im sure wemod will have cheats for it soon enough to give you these items.
Your character is stored online because of the online functionality, so I think so
It's sad that Japanese developers (and Japanese people in general) have no idea what is going on in the outside world, and are therefore always 10-20 years behind societal development. I remember going there when Pasmo (rechargeable card instead of buying ticket stubs from machines for the subway) was relatively new and having a very proud Japanese person explain to me that Japan was the most convenient place in the world to live because of this. This was in 2011. Fuckers still go to 7/11 to pay their bills.
Not saying you're wrong, but this seems about equal to the shit Western developers pull on their game releases nowadays
And for some reason you still can't charge transport cards online or with a credit/debit card if you don't have a japanese phone. Think that's coming in 2035 at this rate? 🤣
This is the best summary I could come up with:
As I write this, Capcom's new ARPG Dragon's Dogma 2 is now officially playable on PC through Steam, with the game slated to go live on Xbox and PlayStation consoles in just a few hours.
"Then, after pre-purchasing the Deluxe Edition, I went to install it today and saw a whole page dedicated to it's Micro Transactions in the store," wrote player Superius.
The former monetizes the ability to fast travel wherever you want in the game world — Portcrystals are extremely rare to find in gameplay — while the latter's random nature essentially turns changing your Pawn's inclination into a slot machine you can spend $2 to "re-roll."
We've only been able to find two Art of Metamorphosis tomes for sale at a single NPC's shop despite finishing the game, for example, which suggests that there may be a limit on the number of times you can change your appearance unless you're prepared to fork over some cheddar.
In the past I've received review guides that included developer explanations with PR language that I felt might be designed to try influence my opinion of a game.
It's a slippery slope to ex-EA's John Riccitiello and his infamous "I want to sell bullets in Battlefield" microtransaction quip of yesteryear.
The original article contains 929 words, the summary contains 209 words. Saved 78%. I'm a bot and I'm open source!
The disappointment matches the excitement I felt when it got announced
Only legislation will stop this.
This abuse is the dominant strategy. If we allow this to continue, there will be nothing else.
Nothing inside a video game should cost real money.
I was watching Suzi's video on this and I was watching if she was gonna blink twice like she was in trouble.
Capcom's dick move with mods already poisoned the well, this is just salting the earth.
She (and other reviewers too ) should post a follow-up, it's the right thing to do IMHO. She's being called shill among other things in the comments although it's obvious she didn't know.
