So I see this game. Let me sum up what I actually see:
- Reviews are mixed: not a great start
- Requires 3rd-party account: fuck that
- 60 euros base game: expensive, especially when the game has mixed reviews
- 175 euros DLC’s: are you fucking kidding me? On top of 60 euros for the base game, there’s another 175 fees for content?
- purchasable CoD points: so pay to win?
And they don’t understand why people pirate, run away from AAA games and go for indie games instead.
This is just a random example. I’ve quit playing COD after Modern Warfare.
To end this positively: I recently started playing Necesse which is really nice, and I started playing an old time favorite again after a long time: World of Goo. Both worth my money :)
I’m all for hating on CoD, but the DLC “content” is skins and minor cosmetics, it really doesn’t add anything to the game and isn’t necessary at all. Also the CoD Points are for cosmetics as well. There’s a lot of shitty things you can and should say about Vanguard, but it is not pay to win.
Fair enough, at least we have to give them that. But that means it’s a platform for people to show off they have more money than others and gladly show they wasted it on useless digital nonsense. Not the audience I’d like to play games with.
