I’m saying that asking for information on the details of what is or is not in it, is a bad idea. because we don’t know, you don’t know, anyone getting mad and saying one thing or the other is a bad idea.
saying that it can’t make higher framerates when framegen exists is a bad idea, until we know it doesn’t do that.
i’m so tired of this community, reddit was better. be better.
You can frame this as I don’t like non cosmetic microtransactions if you like. But you have to agree that isn’t what 99% of the online discourse is doing. Almost everyone is making statements that are not true because they want to feel outraged and want others to feel outraged, and because they have been lied to by another person’s outrage.
It’s a hurricane of lies, and it’s honestly been worse on lemmy than on reddit.
There was never any need. All the micro transactions were just time skips for the dumb. The systems are the same dragons dogma systems they had in the first one. They didn’t artificially change things to be grinder. They just put in paid for cheats.
If you want to use them, that’s fine, and certainly, this over paying for it. But people framing this as a need is bad. Which is expected of eurogamers headlines the past few years.
It’s the same system as the first game. They designed the same system. I don’t know what is so hard to understand about this. They added skips for idiots that want to pay extra, but for the rest of us it’s the same damn thing as it was last time.
Honestly, I can’t take the outrage culture of lemmy anymore. It’s made this place unbearable.
We all hate the execs, ofc. But this is a non news story. Two guys who have absolutely nothing to lose, totally independent from the studios and with absolutely zero power or influence on them, say exactly what the rest of us are saying.
It’s an article designed to illicit the “yes I agree I’ll share this!” Part of your brain, but there’s nothing here to see or talk about.
Anything is better than nothing. This is true. But that doesn’t mean you aren’t wasting your time on something that does the bare minimum.
