I didn’t even know people still cared about this shit show
Just play Elite Dangerous and be done with this scam already.
Oh yes, Space Truck Simulator 2
Every time I read about this game I wonder who the hell is giving them all this money.
When I was in sales, I was always told “you can’t sell it unless you offer it”. There exists people who blow $48,000 on stupid stuff daily. What’s the harm in offering a product to that very small demographic? Maybe you get lucky and make a $48,000 sale doing literally nothing.
Idiots that will die on a hill defending the game, calling everyone who doubts it a “hater”.
Useful idiots to the Star Citizen devs, that’s for sure.
I don’t think there’s many of those people, are you imagining up someone to hate or have genuinely experienced someone like that?
People who can afford to and want to support the game.
No, it’s people who can afford it and want to show off to others. Buying a soundtrack is supporting the game, spending more than most cars cost is flexing.
They have a very dedicated flock of whales (the industry term for microtransaction addicts). They know they have them hooked, and they are obviously intent on bleeding those whales dry for everything they own.
I don’t care how much I liked a game, if any publisher acted in this way I would never consider touching any of their games. This is absolutely criminal behaviour.
Microtransactions are entering the endgame.
They invented megatransactions.
I think the craziest thing for me, if I’m reading this right, is that the pack includes all ships released and concepted. So you’re paying for ships that aren’t even in the game yet? You just have concept art and the promise that they might be in the game?
Pinky swear bro, we’ll make em
Star Citizen has long history of ship pre-purchases long before release
Isn’t it time to get some regulations on m(i/a)cro transactions? This seems very illegal to me and it is exploiting people’s addictions.
Exploiting peoples addictions is what literally drives capitalism.
Addictions like food, clothing, shelter… and capitalism is the best system we have for providing those things.
Given that EVERY single company in the top 10 largest companies by market cap are luxury goods, your comment is less valid
Apple, Microsoft, Google, Amazon and Tesla hardly sell essential products
Amazon sells food, clothing and shelter.
Cope
No U
The great thing about capitalism is that I can choose where I spend my money. And use my money to make money. If people wanna be stupid with their money, that’s on them. I don’t give a shit if they go broke because that is on them.
Hahahaha
Plus making people pay for essentials by gatekeeping everything behind the owner class
