Current Events > How bad were the microtransactions in the last game you played?

(+) Yeah! (+)

FF5 pixel remaster, non-existent as far as I know

I'm pretty happy with the expansion pass dlcs for Mario Kart 8.

Vampire Survivors doesn't have mtx(on Steam at least, maybe it has a shitty mobile port like Brotato) afaik.

Ehh technically Fallout 76 and even then they arent bad per say just a lot of them are kinda pointless and if you do the Seasons and have Fallout 1st it just makes them easy to get with Atoms

Timesplitters 2

non-existent (thank god)

---> Cyberfairy pants and sensible top costume: Also non-existent (thank god)

Call of Duty is 100% skins and cosmetics, so nothing I would ever buy

Cyberpunk 2077 - none...that I'm aware of, at least.

Granblue Fantasy Relink

Edge of Eternity. As far as I'm aware there are none.

No the mobile version of Vampire Savior never asked me to purchase anything. But it has been months since I played it. Just playing it on a phone isn't fun as you have to use your finger so part of the screen is obscured.

I played A Little to the Left last night.

...I think it has one dlc pack?

none of the last 3 games I've played have had any microtransactions

Palworld has none so that's good. Helldivers 2 has some so that's bad.

Baldur's Gate 3 has none

Call of Duty MWIII

The store bundles are all cosmetic stuff that has no effect on the core gameplay, and everything that actually affects gameplay (new base weapons, new maps, new game modes, etc.) is added via free updates and easily unlockable by anyone. I've only bought one single store bundle in this game (a Call of Duty Endowment bundle where the proceeds go to charity) and I don't plan on buying any more. Some of the bundles are way overpriced for what you get from them, but overall, I'm fine with this system. It's still way better than the supply drops in some of the older CoD games.

i spent like 10 grand on it but i think its pretty fair all things considered

Same,
The FF7 Rebirth Demo
NEO The World Ends With You
God of War Ragnarok

I play primarily single player games that don't have them and the ones that do are easily ignored shit like RE 4 Remake or something

Valorant

Overpriced microtransaction garbage. I still remember the time they try to sell a Dragon skin for weapons that cost up to $300's. The game is at least fun though.

LEGO Jurassic World on switch.. afaik this version doesnt even have dlc, as it released so much later than the other versions everythings included.

Super Mario RPG so none

Nier Replicant. 1 free DLC.

Oh wait, I beat Sheepy just after that. Game is free, no microtransactions.

all of the lego jurassic world doesn't have dlc to buy.

on topic, last game was fluffy cubed (ps4) that didn't have any dlc to buy.

i wish lego game had a new adventure coming around or at least a remaster.
hopefully within this year. lego 2k drive doesn't count to me.

Call of Duty, so they're pretty fucking rampant.

Helldivers 2

there are none as far as i know...

Destiny 2.

it's pretty bad but i haven't spent more than 20 bucks on stuff outside the expacs

Jstris
They have a supporter subscription for some visual perks. Thats it

Monster Hunter Now. It's a free to play Pokemon Go-like, so it's all about micro transactions, but I don't think the stuff you can buy is even that helpful. Like the items in the shop marginally increase the monster encounter radius and that's basically it I think. The shop music is a really cute jazzy arrangement of the series theme though, so it's still worth spending time in the shop lol.

The last real game I played was Monster Sanctuary, which has only had free dlc as far as I know.

Tekken 8
it has a season pass for dlc characters but i havent notice any annoying advertisement/pop ups for it.
it also has an deluxe edition upgrade that is totally not worth it, but again no intrusive shit telling me to buy it.
1/10
Praise be Harada

FFX doesn't have any.

Valve's business model is actually not scummy.

Nothing you buy adds gameplay value whatsoever and every weapon skin can be resold on the market. Shit's really expensive though if you want anything good. But I made solid profit over the years.

Pretty much NFTs that aren't actually a scam.

Mario Wonder: none

Helldivers 2, not bad in the slightest.

Final Fantasy IV, none

Maddens fine if you avoid the Ultimate team, which I do.

But that mode ruined sports games, and the sorry state Madden is in is my rebuttal to anyone who says how they spend their money doesnt affect me.

Baldur's Gate 3 has none.
