>Micro transactions don’t take anything away From a good game
That would imply there's a good game with microtransactions to begin with.
i agree, lets take away unlocking items through progression and earning it through skill, and instead just let people them, taking away from all feeling of accomplishment
the problem with micro transactions is when affects gameplay because that becomes pay2win
Tons of gacha that are probably more deep and complex than your favorite games
>gacha
>deep and complex
hahahahahha
hahahahah
ha
This is your brain on gambling addiction.
There's no such thing as a good game with microtransactions.
Game development is inevitably warped by its monetization model as devs naturally focus on things that pay the bills. In the case of games with microtransactions this means spending the bulk of post-launch dev time on making things to sell on the microtransaction market and making sure the game encourages purchases as often and as large as possible rather than entertainment value or bug fixes.

cope, Fate is a more mechanically complex game than anything you paid 60 dollars plus tip for while I haven't spent a fucking cent

What the flip
>withhold content from base game
>sell it back as microtransactions
lol just vote with your wallet doesn't work here because some retard can cancel out my vote 1000 times over and now I either have to pay for microtransactions too or deal with every new game I buy being unfinished
sorry, forgot how to quote for a minute there
>Micro transactions don’t take anything away From a good game
Well this is just a complete lie, either you're a shill or you've at least drank the koolaid. The core philosophy of adding microtransactions has ripple effects on every aspect of the game, everything is tuned to make playing without paying more tedious and less rewarding because otherwise nobody would buy anything.

>Micro transactions don’t take anything away From a good game,
good games don't have micro transactions
funny coming from tyler of all people

Cosmetics are the better of two evils and they don't do anything to the gameplay
It's also normalizing the mtx into people's minds too

Nope, same shit, game design is compromised regardless and in the same ways
The problem isn't that they may grant some in-game advantage, the problem is this
It doesn't matter if they're cosmetic or not, the result is the same, the impact on basic game design is the same. You're not seeing the forest for the trees, you're focused on the wrong problem.
>Nope, same shit, game design is compromised regardless and in the same ways
How so?
Id disagree. Imagine if you could have just purchased the halo 3 armors for real money. Not only would it minimize the feeling of earning something youve for, but it also makes them less interesting or impressive to see out in the wild. It completely strips out the entire purpose of unlocking new gear.
name one game you didn't have fun with because of micro transactions alone
>Fate
pfftHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
WAIFUFAGS NEED TO BE FUCKING GASSED AHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAGHGGHHGFGHAJAHAHHAHAJAHAHAHAJAJHAHAHHAJAJAJAAAHAHAJAJJAJJAJAJJAJAA
So you think having game changing micro transactions are better then? Things like double exp, refining equipment items that you can't obtain otherwise, or skill/stat resets. All things that you'd have to buy with real money or you can buy a pretty skirt that looks nice on your character.

seethe, enjoy your 60 dollar plus tip games
Read the posts I linked, pretty simple, guy is spot-on.
The presence of microtransactions affects game design by incentivizing the implementation of and focus on systems, mechanics, game modes, features, etc. etc. that encourage the use of microtransactions. For example, we already know Activision/Blizzard, for example, is using/planned to use matchmaking systems in Overwatch that pair players with other players based on the cosmetic items they have. The game determines which cosmetics Player A might want and then matches them with Player B, who has those cosmetic items, based on that information. So Player A sees more of the cosmetics they want, which in turn incentivizes them to use the microtransactions. The game is collecting information and using said information in a way that allows the publisher to more easily sell loot crates to players.
And then we have shit like this

Basically the game tracks how the player responds to certain situations, whether they seem to have become frustrated based on how many attempts they make, time taken between attempts, etc, and actively creates more situations that replicate that perceived frustration and tries to sell the player on microtransations with little pop-ups or ads that may ease that frustration.
It doesn't matter whether they're for cosmetic items or power-ups, the business model is the same. Big publishers are already making as much or more money with microtransactions as they do actual game sales. The way games make money is changing.
Except every game with microtransactions is intentionally designed to be shittier in order to give you an incentive to buy them.
Cosmetics are a part of the enjoyment of a game just like everything else. This is obviously true, otherwise people wouldn't pay for them, and they wouldn't have existed before microtransactions, but they do and they did.
I'd rather have none.
Or you can play a good game.
I agree.
shit, I keep forgetting how to quote on this website
This reminds me of that debate from months ago about Sekiro's difficulty. I believe having microtransactions take away from the entity of the game. As a whole, it feels cheaper, reminds me all the time it's just a product made to get money out of retards.
I don't like that. I prefer my games to not step so low.
the problem is the people are too stupid to be smart consumers like the FIFA Spics
