Yea… buying a $35 “early access” title, to have a large amount of the content locked behind a pay wall… that kills any interest in the game for me.
““Assuming you play only regular matches and not solo (2 points per extract), and each round takes you 10 minutes to extract, and you NEVER DIE, it would take you ~30 hours to get 5 shards,” sp00kyemperor calculated in a separate thread. “So if you’re a god tier player that extracts every single time, it will still take you 30 hours to unlock one class.””
Well that’s disgusting. It reminds me of a vid I saw a while back about the evolution of BS marketing tactics in games: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g16heGLKlTA
I’m lucky I get to (mostly) avoid this kind of thing as someone with a preference for the types of games smaller indie producers are more likely to make, but I still care what’s happening in the rest of the industry.
