When that time comes, would that create a period of insane amounts of scams?

Good bot

• Mindustry. It’s easy Factorio.
• The Trine Games.
• Warframe maybe.
• Portal 2.
• Dungeon Defenders 2 maybe.

I counter your refusal with my refusal of your refusal.

I would want regulations only if we were talking about opening crates or other forms of gambling. But this is as upfront and crystal clear as possible where you pay money and you get a skin unlike opening crates. We can all agree that the horse cosmetic is a ripoff but it’s open and upfront about it’s shittiness with no aspect of gambling. Unless I’m forgetting something, gambling microtransactions are the only case where I think regulation is needed.

Edit: The reason why I think gambling should be regulated more so than the other addictive substances (sugar, alcohol, the horse cosmetic) is because gambling doesn’t give you a concrete product. Unlike the others, gambling is getting the chance to obtain your desired product while the others guarantee a product to use.

When it’s as obvious of a scam as this post shows, I don’t really I have any sympathy. There are other games where it’s more cleverly implemented but even then I still lean towards the fault of consumers.

I am not going to blame the chocolate factory for getting someone obese. Sugar is addictive yes, but everything can be to a certain point and it’s a person’s responsibility to manage these potential addictions.

If consumers as a whole keep buying overpriced skins then yes, I will blame the consumers for enabling this behavior.

Dang that’s crazy. Anyway opens up Monster Hunter World

Warframe

Basically a “it works for me but not for some people” statement. Such a waste of my time to have read that.

Leftist is an appropriate description. What word do you prefer?

Team Fortress 2. It’s partially because of the amazing gameplay and partially because of the community.

CS2 is fine and it feels like CSGO, except the nades were updated. If you want to go nostalgic you can go play the other CS games.

I understand preserving a game is important, but this isn’t a single-player game, this is a game that they have to continuously host and manage, which costs money. Valve wanted to update the game, and they probably didn’t want to have 2 games fighting each other. You can be mad at their strategy, but CSGO was a free multiplayer game (yes yes it was $15 or $20 dollars years ago), and they decided to change it into an updated free multiplayer game.

If you want to call them scummy because they slightly changed a game you paid for, go for it. Never buy another Valve product and go exclusively GOG.

Having said all that, I would be on your side if and only if we were talking about a single-player game that does not need to be managed 24/7.

Oh goodie, a mistake from the horse paste guy.

Yeah Elastic Orange Llamas will be difficult to deal with but I think Joe can manage.

Ethernet must be ancient tech to you.
