Mr.Rubinshtein
i dont want to pay 60$ so later i will have to pay 150$ to unlock other stuff
Mr.Rubinshtein
thank god lootboxes are banned now
yarnfang
And if they really cared about allowing people to "skip the grind" then they could just have a setting for XP scaling.
yarnfang
It's all BS.
Mr.Rubinshtein
ye or just add it as feature
Mr.Rubinshtein
like if you are in a hurry you can tick double xp and more bonuses which boost up your progress
Mr.Rubinshtein
but on another hand people who have time might tick that for advantage maybe
Mr.Rubinshtein
maybe then dev will have to add something which will be diabled or affected in the boost tick system
yarnfang
Then there's option C. Make a game that's not based around selling Xp boosters 🙃
Mr.Rubinshtein
i mean the classic way is to play gain xp and unlock stuff
yarnfang
Oh btw, do you remember what they did with Shadows of War?
yarnfang
Buying orcs to add to your army. As the end game required so many of them it forced you to either hop on the grind, pay up or accept that you've been fooled and give up.
yarnfang
And then a year later they were all like. HEY WE FIXED IT EVERYONE!!!
yarnfang
After the peak for when orc's sell meaning they were then just fishing for the people who had yet to buy the game.
yarnfang
It's all just so pathetically transparent.
Mr.Rubinshtein
lol

Me reading this conversation as I replay a game about dogs they made long ago which is pretty normal

yarnfang
Yeah, I can't believe they even put pre-order bullshit in Sands of Time remake.
yarnfang
I... I'm probably skipping it then.
