Kai Tave posted:I'd say something about how other people buying lootboxes doesn't actually affect your ability to enjoy Overwatch either but practically every post you make in this thread is you finding something new to bitch about so I'm not actually sure you enjoy the game in the first place. Blizzard treating it's customers like poo poo does effect my enjoyment of the game not just this game but others who see success and will copy. When competitive ended I was playing not to have fun but to get lovely loot boxes. It made my experience shittier because I know wanting skins is stupid not very logical and yet I still supported it by playing. f2p is almost universally toxic as poo poo and can easily ruin otherwise fun enjoyable games.

I've got no problem with monetizing purely cosmetic effects in theory, but in practice it seems like if your game game makes its money through ongoing purchases beyond release, it's going to affect development and balance priorities -- after all, you want to keep EVERYONE hooked, because they're all potential buyers. Or maybe they'll discover that whales like certain kinds of games and then the incentive is neither democratic nor competitive/elitist.

Atoramos posted:sorry let me go buy some dlc maps and characters, things that other full-price games actually do. Yes definitely, release a game with an appropriate amount of content for the price point, then charge for the expansion of the game. This is a nice idea. Unfortunately they released an mp only game with a very limited map selection so there is a ways to go before they should start charging for packs.

Are you all still arguing about the loot boxes that contain items that have no impact whatsoever on gameplay and can in fact be earned simply by playing but can also be purchased issue? Jesus gently caress. Chill thread best thread. E: and there's even posts disparaging hanjo! For shame.

Yeah this happened to Dota, every patch felt like a billion hats. Heroes of Newerth had new heroes (when you could buy them to get them early) be overpowered with a high frequency. f2p mechanics are toxic to games and almost always would be better without them.

Atoramos posted:sorry let me go buy some dlc maps and characters, things that other full-price games actually do. This is my take on it. Is it a bit scummy to have lottery based cosmetics? Kinda? But so long as real content continues to roll out for just the purchase price I don't loving care. I refuse to buy any game with gated content that fractures the community, thus essentially forcing purchase. This situations got nothing on cod, bf, or basically every other non counterstrike fps in the last decade.

In Battlefield I didn't have access to most of the guns in the game and had to grind for them  Fortunately I don't have to grind to unlock Pharas jetpack or whatever

and then you unlock those guns and have to grind with them to unlock the attachments for them. the funny thing was that in bf4, generally the base gun was better anyway. you could also spend money to buy random boxes of that garbage! woo! I'm glad that the only unlockables in this game are cosmetic, and I'm especially glad they didn't make the mistake tf2 did by adding alternate weapons to everyone. I like knowing what I'm up against at a glance

Did we find out what the latest countdown to 2:30 EST today was about? I'm assuming we're didn't or it was very underwhelming cause a loot box discussing is occurring... was it a count down to loot box information?
