Topic	Jim Sterling now whining about Sea of Thieves microtransactions
Darmik 02/18/18 3:06:51 PM #178:	ZombiePelican posted... Are you actually naive enough to believe this? Every other MS exclusive has microtransactions with a BS premium currency. In what world will Sea of Thieves be any different? The world in which it launches without one and Rare haven't said it will have one? How would a premium currency even work in this game? As far as I know you steal gold from other players and treasure chests. Your argument has basically devolved to "this game will have in-game currency and shitty F2P mechanics regardless of what they say!" If that isn't the case is the game fine then? myzz7 posted... Darmik posted... Microtransaction and in-game currency are not used interchangeably and they do not mean the same thing. And no I don't consider buying $60 worth of in-game currency a microtransaction. Google microtransaction definition and paste all of the results here. This is looney even for you. wtf is this. if u put real world money into a game to buy small bits of game features - its a microtransaction. doesn't matter if there's a middle step of ingame currency brought with real world money. you're pretending to be stupid or what? ZombiePelican is saying that it's only a microtransaction if there's in-game currency. You're agreeing with me. --- Kind Regards, Darmik <cite>Darmik posted [p:896320719] in Jim Sterli...
