I only buy cute furbait cosmetics

>>377843375
i agree, used to be able to earn rare cosmetics in rocket league for free and just by playing the game. now its all crate cancer. i have more than 130 crates. thats about 70 dollars before tax just to open the cosmetics that i earned by playing the game for 666 hours. id rather spent money to purchase the remaining new vehicles i dont have access to.

>>377843375
You mean with, like, real money? Yeah, sure.

>>377843645
my bad, thats 70 euros to open 130 crates. no guarantee i will even get a rare cosmetic.

>kill yourself i you support f2p games that you like playing.

Can articulate a compelling argument against it or no?

quality thread

>>377843738
the only good f2p game to release in months is the new alien:swarm, and it has no micro transactions

>>377843375
I wouldn't say it's "worth it" because it's fucking cosmetics, but if unlocking something means you need to spend 10 hours in game, when you can work minimum wage for 3 hours and make enough to buy said cosmetic + change; I'd say it would be worth it. Using money is just a time saver.

I never do it but i'll probably buy skins in LoL sinceI got dragonslayer pantheon in my shop

>>377843375
Agree,unless you're rich & you want to support the devs by giving them 10$ once in a blue moon.

>>377844372

Into the oven you go.

>>377844484
they released a free HD version thats mod friendly.

>>377844573
its a good one. I only buy skins if they look good and are actually different from the main skin. Since they added the boxes i havent bought any skins though.

so whats the point of character skins in FPS games like overwatch? you don't even get to see the shit in the first place.

Can i buy a custom death animation beforehand?

>>377843375
What if they give them away?

>>377844843
Same reason in TF2. Makes you an individual.

Fuck off

I bought some StatTrack weapons in CS:GO. Everything but the AWP and the AKs are like 50 cents each. Fight me.

>>377845562
What did they care about before? DLC?

Back when CS:GO was my regular "relax after work" game I would occasionally burn a couple bucks to open whatever crate had happened to drop that week. The cost for the key was literally nothing to me, and it was a nice little gambling rush. I thought of it like buying a lottery ticket.

I've only ever bought 700 dollars worth of supporter packs for Path of Exile because it used to be a good game. And then everyone found out they've been using the money to fund a console port in total secret since 2014.

Never trust game developers.

>>377847336
You are, point out where I claimed I owned my cosmetics

>>377847543
so you can own skins but not the game?

good job shit for brains

What the fuck is wrong with you?

>>377847537
PT please

>>377848027
you implied you own the skins in
>>377846928

your logic is incongruent:

>i enjoy buying skins, but i do not own them, although i have painted you as a fool for enjoying not owning things

back to high school mongo

>>377846554
>>377848027
you implied it here

Look at all this poverty. The departments that make cosmetics are not the same departments that work on mechanics, work is structured to create product to sustain the game. If I like the game, and I like the product, yeah, I'll buy it.

tl;dr: Get a job, you bums.

playing the shit out of warframe when I get home from work. Paying for a few syandanas or warframe bundles is nothing.

I've only ever spend like 2 dollars on Neko Atsume, just because I liked it so much.

>buying play on jewframe when you can scam people out of theirs with 2 corrupted mods
Anon pls

>>377848993
The amount of money you could reasonably spend on cosmetics is a tiny part of your discretionary spending. Bolster your investments, pay your bills, etc. and if you still don't have literally thousands for whatever you feel like at the end of the month then get a job, get a real degree, or leave your third-world shithole.

I really, really liked Path of Exile. It was one of those games worth only getting 6 hours of sleep every night just so I could wake up early and start playing it sooner.

And I spent it over a period of years. Every 6 months they'd release supporter packs and I'd just buy the $100 or $200 tier out of habit.

>>377848373
I don't hate it purely because of the port. I hate it because they lied about not letting the port limit the PC version, and then stealthily admitted it has been influencing it, but nobody gave a shit. And I could go on and on about the current garbage state of the game, but if you know who PT is you probably already know or don't see it as a problem.

I've sworn off PoE until they fix it.

Honestly Warframe is the closest thing to an EVE online market system where players can basically handle it. Unless DE feels like "balancing" something throwing everything out of the board

yeah, I unlocked most of the frames by playing the game because I didn't want to spend any plat, so when I finally decided to enjoy the fruits of my autism, I spent it on all the deluxe skins and capes I could get my hands on

Purchase? Nigga I trade for the shit I want and make profit at the same time.

Yes, at let us remember what brought us this cancer: Mobile games and team-based online multiplayer games. Two of the, as history has proven, absolute worst types of game ever conceived with more uninspired, unfinished, and unrewarding games than any other genres.
