Would rather pay for a full game and have the grind be fun than not pay for a game and have the grind be intentionally shitty in order to push me to microtransactions

name one "full game"? games whose only value in unlockables should be free since you can no longer unlock things for free.

God no. A game being F2P, basically guarantees that it will be online only. I want them to move away from that shit, not embrace it.

If you dislike full priced games that much, then just stick to grindy f2p MMO's.

Well I can't speak for others, but I prefer single player experiences. So even if I can play solo, being always online means I now have to deal with possible server instability/downtime, patches/maintenance, and no mods. Remember the launches of Sim City 2013 and Diablo 3? The game servers were so bad that people couldn't play the game they paid for.

If it's something where the game is literally pvp only, that's fine, but if there's a single player aspect, I want to be able to play offline.

I disagree. The Borderlands games have great loot systems for full-priced titles, and by adding in a microtransaftion chest in 2 (and retroactively applying it to 1 in its remaster), Gearbox hurt the integrity of the games just a little bit.

Switching to a f2p model basically guarantees pay to win, and it incentivises the developers to balance the game in such a way that it wears players down until they're tempted to start spending money on boosts, loot drops and other microtransactions. The fact that devs are doing that in full priced games already is despicable, but making the entire genre f2p is basically the death knell of fair and fun balancing in looter games.

that logic only applies to those goofy games with different weapons tiers/classes, which is shit for pvp anyway.

at least charge a price that's actually reasonable.

60 bucks for a repetitive looter shooter is a fucking scam!

i don't spend my life on a video game message board LMAO, weird thing to be proud of but you do you i guess

on the main platform that the game is played on, it doesn't cost 60 dollars.
