      Spoilers: they shouldn’t. They actually reviewed the game and didn’t circlejerk about one completely optional feature.

        I think the whole game should be reviewed and that includes the microtransactions. There’s a reason they add them after the reviews are in because they know people don’t like to be nickel and dimed in a game that costs 60 to 70 fucking dollars.

          Hey wise guy. I have this amazing solution for that. It’s called not fucking buying them. People are losing their shit about this, yet helldivers 2 does the exact same thing and no one gives a shit.

            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.

        Why would somebody only review a portion of the game you’re playing?

        It’s like reading a movie review where the author showed up 30 minutes late to the movie

          It’s literally not. It’s like reading a positive review for a movie and then going to see it and being outraged the theater is charging $14 for popcorn. No one is forcing you to buy the popcorn, and not buying it in no way affects your movie experience.

          Don’t you have more important things to be outraged about? Isn’t it exhausting hating everything all at once?

        This is Lemmy though, you need to toss out common sense before opening the site.
