Pwning the anti-microtransation wave riders.

Post by AngrySpoonySnob » Sat Dec 02, 2017 12:22 pm

Now let me be clear, Im not for microtransactions in games at all. I just dont get the sudden outburst this year and specifically on shadow of war when theyve been done way earlier and way worse... And the equation to gambling is just nonsense which I just schooled one of the idiots on:"

"Gambling is the wagering of money or something of value (referred to as "the stakes") on an event with an uncertain outcome with the primary intent of winning money or material goods." - Wikipedia

... That's precisely what loot boxes are. Just replace "material" and "money" with "in-game items."

Well where were all you hypocritical whiners YEARS ago?! Its nothing new, Ive heard NONE of you discuss fifa's ultimate team which actually comes a whole lot closer to gambling and being addicting and forced on you to progress..

And there is no uncertain outcome if you will get anything, you will always get something so its not gambling. With gambling you lose your money for nothing in return. Pwned dude. Xd So no "thats not precisely what they are" educate yourself before dumb rants please.

Also tells you how immature and dumb gamers are. Instead of just not using the MTs or refusing to buy games that implement them in a bad way they need a law to protect themselves from it?
Do these nerds have so little selfcontrol they just HAVE to buy these microtransactions? Ive never purchased a single microtransaction in my life lol I think its just as dumb as paying for skins etc.

I guess they can't life with themselves unless they're using all of a game's features, no matter how stupid.

It's most likely that people are tired of people who keep buying these and ruining games that way for everyone not really the lootboxes/microtransactions themselves.

It's to protect the dumb masses but it's not gonna do anything knowing companies will easily circumvent the law if there ever will be one :|

I like how you now get fucking attacked if you suggest this in faggy gaming discussions. Or they'll come back with "but kids use their parents, credit card OMG think of the children!"

The truth is "gamers" are all a bunch of useless retards with absolutely no self control. They have to be the latest AAA gayme no matter what it is and if it has loot boxes, well they have to buy those too. I learned years back that the whole "Steam sale starting, there goes my wallet." meme isn't a joke. It really is how most of these faggots operate.

EA did quite well to distract from the actual game being a pile of shit by putting loot boxes in it.

Battlefront 2. The new one, not the good old one.

ah alright for a moment I was thinking you mightve meant shadow of war. BF2 I havent played and probably never will because im not interested in it.
I heard about the MTs there being removed after backlash though or are they back in another form?
