Gamers aren't happy that Dragon's Dogma 2 includes microtransactions for basic features - and we think critics need to rescore it.

    Oh I’m sorry, I guess I should be grateful that a 70 dollar unoptimized game from a multi-million dollar company has microtransactions. I don’t care what mental gymnastics you come up with, they have no place in paid games.

      Every time I see someone complain about an unoptimized game I’m reminded people still use dog-shit computers or ‘gaming’ laptops.

        How does someone else paying for them affect you at all in a SINGLE PLAYER GAME?

        By causing my single player game to be purposely designed to be worse so that they can “sell me the solution” through micro transactions.

        I don’t care that it’s a single player game for fuck’s sake. I have a problem with free to play monetization in a paid game, not just this one any other game.
