This was today in a friend group of mine's discord server
Does anybody actually PLAY raid shadow legends, or is it just an ad for nothing? I don't think I've ever seen the actual game play or heard anyone ever mention playing it.
Streamers play it purely to advertise
Gaming has become such bullshit in this regard.
I mean it’s so rare nowadays to come across a game where you can tell: this is made by someone who genuinely wanted to make this game for the sake of making/playing it.
It’s always just another micro transaction storefront with graphics.
And ads aren’t any different, contrived bullshit.
*mainstream gaming.
There's still a world out there not bothered by this. I'm a big spender but AAA gaming lost me a while ago. On all systems I've got more games to play than I could ever have the time for.
this kind of thing applies to so much these days, another notable example being "oh social media sucks, oh i constantly get annoying notifications"
holy fucking shit just stop using the bad social media platforms, turn off your notifications, this is an extremely easily solved problem that can be tackled in an afternoon!
Not sure who you're referring to but I agree and haven't bought from ea, ubi and others in many years. It's their loss, not mine.
Also I've been gone from reddit in years.
But the masses are so slow.
Good games are the ones without this problem; usually indie games are the good ones because greedy executives are not involved in them.
at this point i barely even register anything published by larger companies, every now and then i catch a brief glimpse of some new big release that is apparently being played by literally 3% of the entire global population, and that is the ONLY time i ever hear about it, never to be seen again.
It's kind of bizarre
There is nothing wrong with developers wanting to get paid for their labor. You want, and deserve, to be paid for your labor. Why don't they??
If you stay away from AAA, AAAA gaming and you get solid deals made by people trying to make an honest living. It's not that hard. I haven't bought or felt any need to buy micro transactions since Horse Armor came out.
