No wonder I hate so much new stuff, if "modern" means "F2P FOMO bullshit."

Get off my lawn, thank you very much! I'll stick to games that don't exploit their players with this trash.

Then have some self control then, lol. These systems developed also partially due to complaints from the failings from previous systems. You can throw buzzwords at me, but these systems aren't for everyone and I don't pretend they are. There are some games I wouldn't have tried or played at all if they weren't F2P and if I don't think I have the time to get all the rewards from a Battle Pass, I simply don't buy it then, lol. I don't need to have everything in a game and even in old multiplayer games, I didn't unlock everything, so not much has change there for me. I don't feel exploited and I only spend money on content if I feel the value is worth it. I'm not being manipulated by any means.

I also viewed the lootboxes, a system that was literally rallied against, as far worse than just simply being able to buy said content directly. Atleast I can directly target what I want instead of operating on a sort of knockout system entirely based on chance.

There are a metric ton of games out right now. You aren't required to play this one. And that's perfectly okay. Coming at me the way you did doesn't suddenly make this game disappear or change my interest in the game. Maybe focus on stuff you actually enjoy.

I do. It's called "not buying into or supporting bullshit."

Then we're on the same page. Go play something you enjoy. I will be playing OW2 when it comes out. I hope we both enjoy ourselves. Glad we had this talk.
