What you need to know
- As Dragon’s Dogma 2 launched on PC Thursday evening, a previously hidden suite of microtransactions became available for purchase.
- Things you can buy for the single player ARPG include fast travel points, Rift Crystals for hiring Pawns and buying special items, appearance change and revival consumables, a special camping kit that weighs less than normal ones, and a few others.
- In response to the microtransactions, Dragon’s Dogma 2 is being review bombed, with the game currently sitting at “Mostly Negative” on Steam.
Capcom can join Blizzard, EA, Ubisoft & Frontier Developments on my “Never Buy” list.
I’ve been living under a rock… What has frontier developments done?
Way back when Elite: Dangerous was being Kickstarted it was shilled as bascially a 3D Neverwinter Nights in space with players having access to a toolset & being able to create their own private servers. This was the only reason I was interested in yet another space sim game.
A while after the Kickstarter was over, they completely changed the premises of what they wanted to make into what you see on Steam now. And were absolute assholes about it.
The change was so egregious, that I was able to charge-back my Visa several months after the original donation.
I’m sure the game is nice, but it wasn’t what I was sold on.
(And don’t bother giving me any crap about Kickstarter, I’ve had a good experience using it, even with the few campaigns that I donated to that still haven’t delivered yet, looking at you Witchmarsh)
I love Elite Dangerous, but that sounds way cooler. Im still kind of pissed about the lack of ship interiors. Something that was promised way back when.
Well, I would say that boy needs therapy. It’s psychosomatic
Oh wait. I’m thinking of the song Frontier Psychiatrist by The Avalanches
Why didn’t they join that list when they had the exact same system with mtx in place in the first game? Or are you just saying it now because you want to be part of the angry internet mob about the current thing?
Fuck off, fan boy.
Lmfao what? I fucking hate the game and their shit devs and at least I’m consistent about it. Not like you and your small brain mob mentality. Do you always start swearing when you experience cognitive dissonance? Petty little loser.
