It fucking pisses me off. Now publishers feel like they can get away with it now. Fuck this digital future.
All it takes is just one company.
Bethesda started with Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion with horse armor microtransactions, the success of that created microtransaction monstrosities with piecemeal DLC skins, it's so fucking sad.
Then we got store exclusive preorder bonuses, where preordering a game from a retailer would get you specific DLC, this prevents gamers from accessing all the available content unless you preordered from multiple retailers, thank god this trend is over.
But fuck I lost out on getting all the DLC for Lolipop Chainsaw, Enslaved Odyssey to the West, Hunted, demons' Forge, etc, and all the games that participated in this exclusive shit, you couldn't even purchase it from the digital store.
Then we get OverWatch and their exploit of loot boxes, then we see this shit in FIFA and Star Wars Battlefield 2. Good thing the lawmakers stepped in to stop this shit from ruining people with addictive tendencies.
Then we have mother fucking Nintendo closing the eShop for the Wii, Wii U, DSi, 3DS, so they can push their online subscription which doesn't even have any of those old games. Holy Fuck.
Then we have SEGA, mother fucking SEGA, they removed Sonic the Hedgehog 1, 2, 3, Sonic and Knuckles, and Sonic CD from the PSN and Xbox Store ahead of the Sonic Origins game release. Motherfuckers ruined achievement and trophy collecting for others who want to purchase a single game.
Honestly, gaming went to shit.
Fuck these companies and their anti-consumer practices.
This type of shit in gaming is going to extend to real life too. With inflation, we are paying more for less, kinda like gaming now.
