![]() ![]() ![]() The Switch sells so well because of children. I would reply with the same calm 'empty' voice.) I decided to give you an EXTRA calm and short answer. You could point a gun at me, or give me a billion Euros, or give me two attractive barely dressed girls that love it to cuddle and headpat me and would "super caring big sister" on me. Because people often misinterpret me as angry or "triggered" (Which is interesting because I actually lack in emotions. Tue 16th Mar I wrote a long answer to that and then decided to not send it.If you think that somehow you are on a moral high ground and that you are supporting the lesser evil or even the good guys then go ahead but you are just being naive. So, if you are ok with them going away with that, I'm ok with Epic making a really good profit out of Fortnite. "You are the reason why (insert company's name) goes away with it" also applies to you. You are able to play everything in the game without paying, something that can't be said of Pokemon because even if you own the game you have to buy 2 DLC for that. I'm a massive Pokemon fan and I'm not exactly the biggest Fortnite fan, but I'm able to see things in a pragmatic way and see which developers are putting more effort and resources in their product.Īlso, those "disgusting" levels unlock more skins and pretty much visual stuff. Those were a blatant cash grab followed by mediocre DLC but just because they aren't free to play they got a pass with you. Of course marketing and licenses helps, but if you think that's all that matters then simply look at Square Enix Avengers.You are free to support and criticize whatever you want, but at least know the product you are criticizing and be able to recognize it's positives.Īlso, sorry but it's kind of ironic seeing you talk about company practices when you defend the last Pokemon entries constantly. Fortnite is simply a popular game because it's a fun one. Many of you act like grumpy old men that think that define the standard of what a good product is. Tell me how many of them won't even without the free to play model. Of course a company will take as much money as you allow them. Truth is, there's space fot it and sure, many companies abuse this business model, but there's a reason why millions of people enjoy these games without spending a dime or at least less than the average AAA game and your cousin does. I did read all your comments and it's the typical "free to play is the devil" argument. Tue 16th Mar Sorry, but no, it's a parenting problem.So, why would you go to eBay or Amazon, when you can go to an Asian store? But you see that in the Top10 in the Japan charts all the time. Like, there are people complaing about that Ring Fit is sold out everywhere. why limit it to Smash and Xenoblade? Both of which are hard to find nowadays." I’d love to see some new pro controllers. Tue 16th Mar "So much missed potential for Nintendo based controllers.The manipulative marketing, the taking advantage of children, and the borderline gambling addiction it incites in so many people. What I dislike about the game is not the game itself but all the business practices that surround it. Setting aside these issues however, I don't begrudge people who like the gameplay and mechanics of Fortnite. But I think that is the direction the industry is very much heading. I dread the future where F2P is the standard and microtransactions are the norm. It's been getting worse and worse as the years go by. And every time they get more, they try for yet just a little more. Companies will always try to milk just a little more from their consumers. And as these kids get older, this behavior gets normalized and worsens. But the fact remains that most don't and companies like Epic games are more than happy to take advantage of that. I wish more parents took the time to teach their children that way. I honestly applaud that you taught your kid that way and I hope you stick to your guns on that rule. I consider both the F2P style of game design and microtransaction heavy games to be a stain on the industry and community. Mon 15th Mar No, that's perfectly fair, I didn't mean you called it a stain, I consider it a stain.
