Why do gamers love microtransactions so much?

>candy salesman thinks candy should be a core part of any meal

I haven't bought a ubisoft since ass creed 3

>>715958698
Why not? The gameplay is pretty ass but the microtransactions make the game a lot of fun.

>>715958784
I know right, that's why I moved on to gacha, so I can just focus on microtransacting without gameplay in between

>>715958698
Outside of origins because of egypt setting which was worth the exception the last one I got was revelations which I hated.

>>715958916
Whats wrong with revelations?

>>715958698
For me it was Rayman Legends on the PS3

>>715958951
He's a redditor and the reddit consensus is "brotherhood good, revelations bad" despite the latter being a straight upgrade

I think doing nothing is fun.

>>715958698
Same. Crazy to think that was like 13+ years ago

Ceo's need to buy their 3rd mega yacht. Please consider buying a 80 dollar game then getting the biggest premium currency pack.

>>715958653
Pretty much

>>715959191
alright, I buy it and then refund it

>>715958951
It was boring as fuck and I'm retarded for getting it honestly, I knew nothing of the game and assumed it'd be brotherhood plus or something but it ended up being old tired ezio in turkey. Thats all I remember of it, I played three hours and couldn't bring myself to play any further then sold it while it still had some value to fund a different game.

>>715959008
Im glad i dont get my opinions from the internet.

>>715959008
>the reddit consensus
I just searched "assassins creed revelations reddit" and every post in the search results is defending this game lol you fucking retard.

>>715958601 (OP)
It's fun, i love collecting stuff in games especially cosmetics, try not being a poor next time

>>715960510
sorry for being poor...

>>715960765
WTF?? im not the one that's poor im buying

>>715960510
I know a guy that is poor and has spent thousands of dollars on overwatch skins.... so uh yeah sorry that happened.... or really happy for you!

>>715960928
If you spend money not to make money you risk going poor.

why are they like this?

>>715958601 (OP)
>press button
>receive items for free
bad game design

>>715960928
Then he was poor in the first place and didn't understand the assignment. It's about escaping the matrix not just having a bit of money on hand.

Computer, provide separate data sets for Chinese and non-Chinese players.
Now compare number of sales to number of buyers.

There are whole industries that do nothing but pump out people that spend their whole career perfecting this kind of soft language to sugar coat dogshit that serves nobody but their employer.

Only ubishit game i bought in the last 15 years was Anno 1800, only because it was like tree fiddy for base game and its easier to pirate all dlcs through their shitty launcher than to keep up with actual pirate releases lmao

is ubisoft still putting NFT's in games?

>>715958951
>>715959008
It was supposed to be a mobile game hence the weird FMV segments. That said I played it a few hours and stopped because it was boring. 2 and Brotherhood were fun.

>>715958601 (OP)
So basically it's just another way of saying EA's 'Surprise Mechanics'.

>>715958601 (OP)
Ubisoft needs to put more microtransactions and womyn of color in their games because i love seeing them speedrunning bankruptcy

>>715962162
You do know that Ubisoft receives government funding in the form of tax credits & subsidies right?
>>715958601 (OP)
A small minority does and that’s all that matters. They’re called whales. One whale spends way more money on it than 10 people combined who just buy the game and simply play it.

didnt stop them from having to whore themselves out to china to survive as a latch ditch effort.

I just took a shit that looks like ubisofts logo

>>715964126
This disproves my point. But, at the same time, tells me that Ubisoft’s lifespan has been heavily extended by Tencent and Ubisoft’s monetization will continue to be funded by Tencent. So, we’re back at square one to the main point that Ubisoft isnt going anywhere anytime soon. Pretty grim
