It's gonna have an effect
I hope so
Microtransactions will probably always be in games now
but I think it's already reached its peak
Unless they start taking something else than money lol
True, let's hope it peaks
I think the peak is or was close to the battlefront 2 fiasco
Or something similar ubisoft has done
Or is that EA?
ea
Ubisoft is just as bad however
Just checked, there's apparently just made articles about how they've stated they "learned from the mistake that was battlefront 2"
Rainbow Six Siege has this season pass bull shit my friends have spent over 200$ on that game
Jesus
tbqh both original battlefront 2 and battlefield 2 was the peak of gaming, you could host your own servers, there was pretty damn good modding
You could have the ridiculous 64v64 matches
yeah i agree there was a 5 year or so period there where it was all gold
battlefield 3 had its moments too
starting from like cs 1.6 and ending with tf2
That's pretty accurate
I miss buying a game and just playing it, no updates, no passes, you get it all
I didn't play battlefield 3 too much tbh, I've seen some hillarious clips from shit you could do but I don't like a game where I can't just play me with bots
my pc couldn't run battlefield 2 so i would go to the local LAN center and play with the ppl there all day
it was so fucking good
Damn, I miss those places
I never fully enjoyed battlefield 2
I remember I played CoD MW the first time in one
I think battlefield 2 is my most played game, I still play it sometimes. Just with the AIX 2 mod.
I didn't even know about local LAN centers
we had an ok one but it was mismanaged to hell
probably could have stayed open a few more years than it did
We had places in malls that had xbox 360s and you could play for 2 hours for 5$
there's probably a viable business model for something like a LAN center but idk
it probably wouldn't look like they used to
There's still a ton of those in "poorer" countries
right
maybe something specifically aimed at people that wanna play with their friends in the same room and not just randos that need a computer/internet access
I think the best would be to have some spots like that but also just rooms that you could rent for smaller lans
higher pricing schedule but also more amenities
where people would bring their own tech
