>>315566689
It sounds like a get the "whole game edition of the game." Im sure there will be a free version where you can play as two different heroes a month.
>>315566996
I'd much rather pay for a multiplayer game just to filter out the worst of the Russians, BR's and Mexican's.
>>315566996
Yet they've said that they want all the heroes to be available for everyone from the get-go.
I'd pay for it if it were not gonna have micro-transactions. We all know it will, though.
>>315567702
Preordering Overwatch will get you a skin for the Widowmaker. So there will be a skin system.
>Tfw I bought TF2 and it went F2P the next year and Valve gave me A FUCKING HAT for it, then released game modes that require microtransactions
I'm not falling for this shit twice
>>315566689
>60
Well the game looked good, what a shame.
>>315568037
Wasn't TF2 like ten bucks before the year it went F2P?
>>315567876
It's a very bad skin.
>>315567876
Good lord am I ever triggered.
>>315566689
i thought this was gonna be free?
who the fuck would pay for this?
Evolve 2.0
>>315566689
>$60
christ. i just wanted a game that was like early tf2.
And it will still sell millions because people autobuy Blizzard games
>>315566689
umm as long as they dont touch my girls i'll pay whatever they want ;)
I'm only gonna play if there's hats.
>>315568565
Did you not pay $60 when TF2 came out?
>>315566689
That's good, it's like a filter for BR's
>>315566689
I wonder if this will be like TF2 in the sense that only the PC version will get any patches or updates, while the console versions are stuck in 2007.
>>315568056
This.
It looks okay, but DEFINITELY not worth 60 dollars. And they'll have microtransactions all over it too. Dropped.
>>315566689
>$60 + Microtransactions
Fuck video games and fuck the greasy dickless accountants making them.
I'd rather it not be F2P but I'm not seeing the justification for that price. Is there going to be single player content? Will future content updates be free?
I'd pay max. 25$ for it.
oh well, it really doesn't seem that great anyway desu
>>315568692
TF2 was released with the Orange Box, which was possibly one of the greatest deals in gaming.
>>315568343
Guess there's no reason to pre-order :^)
>>315568840
>Fuck video games and fuck the greasy dickless accountants making them.
No, it's fuck Blizzard.
There's a few out there that are shit at the very least.
>>315566689
Well games are $60. Are you a poorfag?
TF2 is already casual lmao, just check out all those afk lobbies.
>>315568692
Tf2 was in a pack with other games and retailed at 50
Ur not wrong tho
>>315568771
This game is worth $25 a max, and whatever the fuck they add for microtransactions.
If there is a steam sale with it i would totally buy it, otherwise i doubt it.
>>315567423
This. I'd love to play dota 2, but peruvians have ruined it for me completely
>>315567423
I hope it filters the worst of the americans too
>>315568991
>steam sale
>blizzard game
what
At least Battleborn comes with a story mode.
But Battleborn is gonna be shit too.
>>315569021
Those pidgeoneaters have ruined a lot of things in the last few years.
>>315566689
On one hand, a class based FPS with ALL the characters instead of Riot-inspired f2p jewelry.
On the other, its a multiplayer- online-only game for $60 USD probably with microtransactions down the road. These games never had a good track record ie EVOLVE, Brink and Titanfall. (TF2 is not in this category; came bundled with Portal)
>>315568056
>>315568771
>>315568991
Reminder that poorfags are absolute scum.
Go get a job and stop living with your parents you reclusive losers.
>>315568140
I think I paid 20.
why not 60 bucks?
better pay 60 bucks upfront than have to do with jewish microtransactions
>>315569236
ppfff
>>315568343
Oh great, we can expect a complete eyesore of wacky cosmetics sooner than later.
>>315569236
>why not 60 bucks?
Well, for example, there's no singeplayer
>>315569236
>better pay 60 bucks upfront than have to do with jewish microtransactions
that's the joke
you do both
I'd rather pay $60 then a f2p game where i have to buy each character separately.
>>315568343
>that hair
What the fuck?
>>315568675
Just wait, anon. As soon as you think they won't change anything they'll do it after they got their money. They appease the perverts at launch and make a PR move after in a patch update. They're going to fuck you so silly you won't even see it coming
>>315569379
who cares about single player in an FPS like this?
And yeah, I'd rather pay an upfront cost than grind for weeks to unlock a single hero at a time or buy them for $10 a piece.
>>315569236
Oh boy
>>315568606
>>315569147
It's okay anon, someone will believe your b8
>>315569503
Probably they reused a Kerrigan skin from HotS.
>>315566689
So then, if the game is 60$, then I'll have to grind for all my skins and shit, and I'll be really able to show off, and able to recognize who did what to get which skin, and it won't just be "sure, this fucker looks awesome, I bet mommy gave the credit card !"
Nice.
>>315569236
It won't be. I can tell you now it'll definitely be:
40 dollars for normal retail edition
60 dollars for 'Origins' which includes skins that'll be buyable later on in the in game shop, probably at a slight bit of extra value. I don't expect much though, because Blizzard prices their skins absolutely fucking retarded for HOTS.
I wanted this to be p2p but 60 makes no sense. Most people will stick with the free, more fun alternative (tf2). Also, making it 60 will severely limit the amount of players here in Brazil, so matchmaking will be very long. Dropped.
>>315569592
There were other people desperately trying to justify it in that thread though.
There better be a ton of other content we just don't know about
>>315566689
Well, there goes any point in getting this thing.
From what all I've seen, this thing is $20 bucks at best.
>>315569724
Isnt $60 in brazil around $120+Taxes?
>>315569717
40 is still too much for just an online arena game.
>>315569520
Because online-multiplayer games die without the grind threadmill, without new content down the line (that isn't cheap to make in the first place), without a subscription fee and without yearly installments to keep the plebs hyped up.
We've seen this before; even EA and all its vast oceans of money couldn't buck the trend. Blizzard might have shot itself in the foot with this one.
>>315569983
I'd be completely fine with $40, if not for the inevitable flood of microtransaction shit
>>315569717
https://www.reddit.com/r/Overwatch/comments/3roy6r/overwatch_origins_edition_news/#null
Yeah, looks like some dude went and got it for 40. Why is there confusion when gamestop is already selling stuff? Obviously I don't understand the industry that well, but it seems like the reddit guy doesn't even really know what he bought. Is gamestop allowed to just sell stuff before blizzard says anything?
>>315569592
>reddit complaining about having to buy something
Redditors are the worst, they'd rather f2p shit spending 100s of hours unlocking characters.
>>315566689
I thought this shit was f2p on PC?
>>315570114
There's other people in that thread who have to get it for 60, scroll down
hahahahaha, blizzard doesn't want to interfere with valve's absolute dominance
that's perfectly fine with me
the arrogance of these idiots, thinking they can still charge 50 and 60 bucks for this derivative, watered down crap
You motherfuckers don't even know how expensive this game is going to get.

This is a shitshow
>>315566689
>2015
>still complaining about casuals
>>315569146
Brink didn't have microtransactions though
>>315569930
Depends on how they price it. It is for electronics (PS4 was costing $2000 here at launch day) but some game developers are pretty generous. For instance, the Diabo 3 expansion is R$70 right now which is like R$18, not sure how much it costs to you but I am probably paying less.
Then again, monthly minimum wage here is like R$650 so its fucking 10% of it
>>315567423
This so much. Fuck f2pfags
I'm happy and I'll buy it if I like the beta.
I'll never understand FPS with classes.
I'd much rather go with a shitload of weapons that can be used in different ways.
>>315566689
I thought it was going to be ftp lol yeah nah fuck off blizz
>>315568343
do preorder comes whit the beta?
>>315570146
I remember a thread from /r/leagueoflegends that someone from /v/ where the OP tried to find out what's he supposed to do after unlocking everything in the game. He literally asked riot to release new stuff he can buy because he couldn't simply play the game
>>315570409
Which is like U$18*
>trying to compete with other games in the genre when almost every other game in the genre is F2P
I will pay $20 at the absolute most.
>No word from blizzard
>Nothing in battle.net store
>Gamestop is the only place selling anything
>Prices range from 40 to 60
Did gamestop just jump the gun, or what's happening here
>>315567423
muh afrikan desendent brother, peru just get fillter and chileans, i gonna glad pay this money for this
>>315570409
You have it easy, minimum wage here is $80 Pesos which is $5, which is 12000% for the game.
>>315567423
> worst
It filters them all out thank fuck.
It filters out the worst of the non-3rd worlders as well.
Like any multiplayer game the community is going to be shit regardless but it will be tolerable at the very least.
Fuck I hate BRs I wish Internet wasn't available in their fucking country
>21 heroes
Does this imply they're going to sell heroes?
>>315566689
Make it $15 like CSGO and I think it would do better.
C'mon now
>>315569379
good point, even TF2 never cost 60 buck back in the day, and it's still twice the game with twice the maps and twice the weapons of Overwatch.
They'll never compete on PC with a $60 entry fee.
>>315569592
>I won't pay $60 unless the game offers over a thousand hours of entertainment
I don't know why developers even still make games for pcfags, if I was a developer I would go out of my way to fuck those entitled faggots.
>>315566689
no wonder beta invites were rare and for ecelebs only
what platform is this even gonna release on?
does blizzard still use battlenet?
havent played a bliz game in years
>>315570583
Rampant speculation.
I expect it to be officially announced at Blizzcon but I wont be surprised for this rumor to be actually true.
>>315570792
there might be a f2p edition with locked heroes
>>315571060
>what platform is this even gonna release on?
battlenet
>does blizzard still use battlenet?
yes
>>315569930
>60 US Dollar equals 226.97 Brazilian Real
fyi, buy since blizzard is active on the BR market they'll probably lower the price here a bit.
I play fighting games which have just as much content. It doesn't bother me.
Fuck off with the "no single player" bull shit
Also this information is unconfirmed.
>>315570715
Thats probably your hourly minimum wage...
>>315570792
Maybe it's referring to HotS? How many heroes do they have going on over there?
>>315570909
>and it's still twice the game with twice the maps and twice the weapons of Overwatch.
Not at launch it wasn't.
>>315570909
TF2 did have a "single player mode", two brand new campaigns in fact.
>>315570543
Why would it try to compete with dead games?
>>315571156
So you dont think the rumor in the article is true?
>>315570967
60 dollars is a retarded price for an online arena shooter, no matter what platform, especially if the price is going to drop over time. The only reason why I bought splatoon for $60 is because Nintendo 1st party games never drop in price
>>315571183
No, $5 is our daily wage.
>>315571298
>implying good FPS games ever die.
okay kiddo.
>>315571382
I don't know, I am assuming they got the information from data mining. I'll wait for tomorrow's blizzcon announcement.

>$60 is a retarded price but I still pay it
Fuck off, retard.
>>315569112

$60 will get you the original 21 heroes, but be prepared to shell out for each new one. This isn't smite, they know they can count on a paying fanbase
>>315571481

Still going to buy it because it looks fun.
>>315571481
Well combat arms is still alive somehow.

>>315566689
I wasn't expecting anything but I was disappointed.
>>315571584
You know theres a reason its called Dota2 and not Defense of the Ancients 2 right?
So Blizzard pretty much just let their accountants kill Overwatch before it was even released? It's just a modern TF2 with a different art style. It doesn't even have a single player campaign, right? Stupid Blizzard...
Good luck Blizzard, it better be one hell of a game for 60 bucks. (it won't be worth it)
Calling it right now, screencap this.
If you buy Overwatch you'll get Legacy of the Void.
>>315571721
dota is a game mod based on WoW BLIZZARD
it doesn't matter you dense fuck

Activision breaking new grounds on getting people to actually pay to get a cock in their ass.
>>315571965
They think that their name alone can carry games, this is why they made ASSFAGGOT and now are doing TF2.
>Console release
>Pay2pay2win
>Modern blizzard balance
>Tumblr pandering
I don´t know what are they thinking, console users like brown&bloom shooters with perks and shit like CoD, moba retards like mobas because free2play, their balance and other stupid shit ruined HotS and Starcraft and Tumblr pandering was useless, Tumblr still hates the game, they sure will sell 5 million copies but for AAA games those are shit numbers.
>>315571965
The difference between TF2 and OW is that I'm actually interested in OW. Almost every TF2 player currently streaming say it plays differently, more like Quake-esque.
Why do we even need single player campaigns in a multiplayer game?
The article also contradicts itself with it's video clip saying it's possibly free-2-play. It's just rampant speculation.

Orange Box was and still is one of the best deals in gaming ever.
Even when TF2 was sold seperately, it was between $5-$20 before it went F2P.

I would say it will, but by all accounts other than substance Destiny was a success.
>>315570718
>implying paying for games is enough to keep us out
stay mad, kiddo
>>315569146
Evolves concept is just shit and niche. Even if it was free it'd probably die off. OW reception is already very positive, we'll see how they make the 60 worth it though. Beta doesnt have much besides a handful of maps and one mode.
>>315572752
Still, there are more white people in France than in the US by % of the population
>people are honestly defending a $60+Microtransactions game
I thought Blizzdrones were a myth, but I've been sorely mistaken.
god damn it. I just wanted to play a medicore shooter that I could stomp kids and Mexicans in, maybe forming a team and having some laughs. That isn't worth $60 when I could just do the same shit in CSGO.
>>315573265
>Caring about microtransactions
Why? it's just cosmetic shit
>>315573265

Blizzard is going to port Overwatch characters into HotS.
>>315572251
That would mean it's actually F2P.
Can we all agree that this is one of the game that only has good porn and waifus?
>HotS, a clone of a certain f2p moba is f2p
>Hearthstone, a clone of a certain $10 online card game is f2p
>Overwatch, a clone of a certain f2p class based shooter costs $60
I knew Blizzard was shit at marketing, but this bad? How do they even expect to compete? They should have learned from HotS that being made by Blizzard doesn't automatically carry a game.

Well, it should be hilarious watching consolefags try to play a fast fps shooter with sticks.
So not only they lost all the PC revenue by trying to swindle everyone, but consolefags are going to say it's shit because it's "too fast and makes them nauseous!". Blizzards are fucking idiots if they didn't figure these two things out from the start, at whatever board meeting they decided to charge $60.00 for this game.
I'm guessing something is going on, like.. they know it's garbage that will have a short lifespan, so that's why they're trying to "frontload" it with a $60.00 charge from the start. There's no other reason to be doing this.
2K games did the same shit with Evolve because they knew it was going to suck ass and didn't really have that much content, so they decided to do their "cash grab" before everyone found out, frontloading the fuck out of that game with a ton of DLC on release day
>>315573787
It's still 6 months out, minimum.
>>315573675
They'll be changing that soon since the SJWs have begun to target the game and blizzard has shown time and time again that they will bow to them.
>>315573073
It keeps out the favella dwellers since they can't just steal the PC-DVD from stores.

>Give access to mostly streamers

>use this as a metric for shitposting
>>315573670
no, it would mean the $40 edition would just have less content than the $60 edition
>>315573451
Well that and the fact that if you pay $60 for a game you shouldn't have to pay for dick aside from more actual content.
Don't care,no single player or friends to play with to lessen the pain in the ass the multiplayer will be playing with randoms.
>>315573996
well 2 or 3 days earlier there was no blizzcon and it was still very low
we'll see after blizzcon
>>315573505
It always jumps to 30-40k when someone popular, like Summit, streams it.
Hey we can't tell anything about it now. The game is still in beta. Perhaps there will be more maps, modes, skins, heroes. Who knows. To early to say.
>>315566689
...aaaand dropped.
As someone who hates CoD and military shooters i would buy black ops 3 for 60 dollar than any Blizzard shit. Nothing that comes out of Blizz asshole worth that money. Since Burch left Gearbox i am gonna buy Battleborn.
>>315572062
I'd be ok with buying overwatch in this case. It would be a good deal.
>>315567423
Agreed. It can go f2p after launch.
>>315569081
It will.
>>315574512
Gearbox makes terrible decisions with or without burch jackass.
if I'm paying $60 and it has micro transactions I'm not paying $60
>>315574756
How will it filter them out? Even American shiiters have lots of money to waste
>>315574512
>I am not going to buy this shitty $60 game with microtransactions
>But I AM going to buy this other shitty $60 game with transactions
>>315573891
I have no idea how it'll play on console, during beta they disabled auto-aim for controllers probably because of online abuse. I could imagine console players becoming frustrated with it and drop it.
Personally, with 20+ characters (possible new ones) and simple multiplayer matches I don't mind paying 60 dollars. I paid that price for Guilty Gear Xrd without buying the extra DLC characters so the content isn't a big deal for me. I do understand everyone else's concerns with a lack of solo content but I have no idea what more they could or should add to the game that isn't just superficial.
>>315570967
>I won't pay $60 unless the game offers over a thousand hours of entertainment
Agreed, you won't see this kind of entitlement in any other popular media. People just expected to get way way more than their moneys worth.
Beats the $10 a hero disaster of a pricing model they tried for their last game.

>$10 a hero
>$10 to unlock faster
2 different things
and you assume there won't be micro transactions when there probably will be
>>315575161
I play HOTS the time and its pretty dead. Has surges at times but only because of the fucktards that want vanity items.
They can't make the game free and sell individual heroes because that would make the game literally pay to win when it's TF2 style hard counters for every character and no 1 per team limit on character. If micro transactions are actually 100% cosmetic skins this is the best possible price model for the game.
I'm still probably not going to bother with it anytime soon. The r34 will be nice though

>thousand hours of entertainment
You're too naive. I'm telling you right now there's absolutely something very wrong with this game if it's just basically a TF2 clone with better graphics (I don't give a shit if the gameplay is a lil faster), and they're trying to get as much money as they can ahead of time.
Think its time to drop video games as a hobby. This was the only game in the foreseeable future that I could see myself play with friends. And the fact that this shit is multiplat and probably p2p basically killed it for me.
Whats a good hobby to burn a shit ton of time on?

They could do a in game currency system that unlocks everything eventually like Capcom is trying with their SFV game.

Aim assist is already in there. Combined with giant hitboxes so its almost impossible to miss.

60 is a bit much for a multiplayer game but it looks fun enough for me to give it a shot.
>>315568692
TF2 came with 4 other games originally, which was a steal and when it finally released stand alone it was 20.

I am not a poor fag, yet I agree with the "this should be f2p, with microtransactions" crowd. However, I cannot really explain why. I think it is because everything about modern gaming has trained me to expect this exact type of game to be f2p. I was super excited about it, have loved the videos and even streams of people playing the beta, and now.... well, I am less excited. I doubt I will drop the cash on this and won't even be bothered now.
>>315566689
>No BRs and F2P cancer
That would be amazing and i'd buy it immediately if true.
>overwatch is coming to consoles
Well I guess I get to play it with my friends instead of grouping with randoms.

Must not of bought the Orange Box? Of course, I don't remember how much it was, and now I think it might have been $40??

>>315575774
All characters need to be available to everyone at any time in a game where you can switch mid-match. They probably will have a currency you earn by playing based on their other games but the best skins will probably be cash only sadly. I like what SFV is doing.
>>315576138
>No BRs
If you think BR's won't play this because of the price tag you're in for a surprise.
Its a Blizzard game my friend, Auto Buy for every Brazilian gamer.
>>315576060
because if you pay premium price for a game, they shouldn't nickel and dime you for the little bullshit
>>315575964
I am neither. However, I dont trust this junk level developer enough to risk spending money on their shitty games anymore. I would give them the benefit of the doubt and try a f2p game, but I sure as hell wont pay 40 bucks for this garbage, especially considering how shit SC2 was, D3 was and WoW past WotLK (from what I have heard) was.
>>315575964
>Why are millennials entitled and poor?
I think I figured it out... their plan, I mean.
They're going to charge $60.00 "asshole tax" to idiots like you who are easily separated from their money, then some months later make it go F2P like it was supposed to be from the start.
It's never going to replace TF2 this way, but I guess they never planned to support this game for the long haul so they're just going to milk it as much as they can before dumping it and moving on to the next release title.
>tf2 clone
at least we've stopped calling it a "dota-like".
Anyways, in overwatch's defense, at least it has more content than Titanfall and at least it's more original than Call of Duty 4: Black Ops 3 or Halo 7.
Also, 60 bucks for console versions or all versions?
Cause
>playing a fps on a console
Shiggy Diggy.No, I'm not buying it.
>>315576339
your comment said it would be pay to win without asserting why
as if taking more time to get the counter picks locks people out completely
counter picking exists in the vast majority of multiplayer games
Blizzard must be trying to set a record for hype killing. First the "closed beta" and now this. It's like they're trying to fail
>>315575592
Magic: The Gathering or sewing. Also, why is this also being on consoles a bad thing? It will die on PS4 and Xbone, just like TF2 did years ago.
>>315576551
>60 bucks for console versions or all versions?
All versions.
Yes PC version is 60 dollerydoos also.
>>315571584
Dota2 has nothing to do with blizzard.
Dots, or defense of the ancients, was a Warcraft 3 mod which I believe blizzard never owned the rights to begin with, as it was made with the Warcraft 3 world editor by users.
Didn't bliz and valve have a huge legal battle over the rights to the game?
>>315576550

>wanting to play a game makes you an asshole
>>315573505
>Heroes of the Storm isn't even 5k
How can people like that piece of shit again? Nobody even bother to stream or watch that crap
>>315576757
Closed beta, uh, I am ok with that. Especially since they will probably have an extended open beta.
Charging for what really is a f2p game? Not ok.
>>315576859
>Didn't bliz and valve have a huge legal battle over the rights to the game?
Yes. And Blizz lost.
>>315576941
I think that went without saying.
Eh..maybe worth it. We'll see.
>>315576941
Right, so someone saying >hurr dota2 in response to someone saying blizz games aren't on steam is fucking retarded
>>315577005
Remember, we're on /v/. If you don't explicitly state something, someone will make a dumbass comment.
>>315576867
It's blatant asshole tax, anon. wtf do you think this is too? (look at picture)
>>315576859
>Didn't bliz and valve have a huge legal battle over the rights to the game?
Yeah and I like to think Overwatch is their "fuck you" after they took what would become a mulitmillion doller game.
>>315576395
I've never seen them on WoW, i really hope you're wrong. F2P would be the reason i wouldn't even try to get into the game.
>>315577096
When you're right, you're right.
>>315576242
Are you claiming the game is shit or that paying 60 bucks is shit?
>>315576819
That's silly.
Though to be fair, making a game 60 bucks instead of free to play can pay off at times.
Still not buying it unless they pull something amazing, since its still in beta
>But beta = released for more money?
Not in all cases, and even if it doesn't change while in beta, this is blizzard we're talking about here. They add new shit to their already released games all the time. I play hearthstone solely for the delicious brawler's guild randomness.
I'm just saying as it stands, I don't see myself buying it in the future, but blizzard is known for doing some silly shenanigans.

Anyone from the realms goldrinn, azralon, tol barad, gallywix, or nemesis is brazilian
I didn't play WoD much, but doing the legendary quests in MoP in lfr, you'd run into a LOT of brazilians.
Into le fucking trash it goes
>>315576467
I don't get it, it's garbage because you think the game looks and plays bad or because it's too much money for you?

I guess if there's no open beta i'll never play this. It looks decent enough. I want to play me some team fps but not this iteration and not for $60.
>>315577131
>He doesn't know about US-Warsong(and others) being a Brazilian server since WoW Vanilla.
You don't see them now because nowadays they have their own servers. But they've always been there, since day 1 and in higher numbers than you think, in every Blizzard game.
But since its p2p and a FPS game you shouldn't worry that much about it, they'll probably be matched against other South American players.
Overpwn says its $40 at launch

Your reading comprehension skills are goddamn atrocious. Its garbage because I am not willing to risk money trusting these imbeciles. That doesnt mean that its a lot of money to me. Just because I spend 500+ on a pair of shoes it doesnt mean that I am willing to financially support a developer who has created nothing but garbage over the last 10 years.
Just because you can afford something doesnt mean you should.
>>315577683
Who
>>315577385
You're just getting a simple multiplayer with a few maps, and it doesn't even have a single player campaign. It's honestly not worth $60.00
>>315577896
Funniest thing is, if it was free to play, people would bitch and say "hurp durp its pay2win"(even if the only thing you buy is cosmetic), and if it costs money, people will still bitch.
Some people just are never happy, maybe its the social justice warriors who are mad that they only have one SJW character on the roster instead of everyone being a bull dyke with hipster hair?
>>315577854
Its a news site similar to mmo champion. They post guides, dev interviews, blue posts etc.
But the point is, sources are posting different price tags.
>>315577385
Both.
The game is garbage, therefore paying 60 bucks for garbage is retarded.
>>315577578
People just want it for free. They think they are entitled to games now because some games have a successful free to play model, so now every game must be free to play or else they will come here to bitch about it thinking blizzard will actually give a flying fuck.
If Blizzard thinks the price is a mistake, the price will sink faster then the Titanic, they know bliz drones will keep the price tag afloat so they are trying to sink it by throwing stones at the hull before it makes it's voyage.
>>315577449
>silly shenanigans
You mean like charging 60 dollars for the game AND making it grind2win with microtransactions? Cause that's exactly what they already did.
