hmmm, l think you overestimate people's ability to do so. Time and time again things like this happen. Keep in mind... we're at this point for a reason.

There's plenty of other games with this type of stuff in them that are full price titles and there's plenty of other practices that are horrible for consumers out there yet we eat them the fuuuuuuck up. ((season passes, preorders, etc)). There's pushback right now. But, how long will it really last?

As the person who makes the videos I keep posting has said in other videos, EA just took a giant step forward and then a small step back (though now they've scaled back more until people calm down..........and due to the amount of casual games who don't care about the continued corruption that will still buy their game, regardless).

Weren't people pissed about insubstantial DLC in game when it was a new concept,  until people became so used to it that it's just "the norm" now?  Now most microtransactions, except for the scumiest, are getting casually accepted until a company REALLY fucks up.....and dial it back for a while.  Lootboxes are just the next extension (which some people are already getting used to and excepting as 'industry practice', unfortunately).

At least that's my take on this........

^ that's my point pretty much. lt's the endless cycle and it keeps happening over and over and over. l might be cynical as hell but l'm right to be in this case. The triple A industry... is a dirty one.
