What made the sentiment of using money to buy cosmetic items acceptable?
Things went from "fuck Oblivion horse armour" to "can't wait to buy 6 gorillion keys to get one fancy knife"

This time never existed.

Can we all stop pretending that "back in the good old days" every game was shipped 100% bug free and 100% complete and 100% adhering to the creator's vision and blah blah blah? That was just as rare then as it is now and the games industry has always been primarily about making money, not "art".

>>383785186
Keep in mind that in GR1 there's literally 1 fucking costume not locked behind a paywall. So this is a big step down in jewishness on top of just being neat.

Pretty sure Tecmo once said they made significantly more money selling costumes for DOA than they did selling the actual game. It's what made them change their mind about DOAX which they had previously announced was such an enormous flop there was no way in hell they were ever making another one of those.

Remember when you could unlock new characters by completing parts of the game? Rather than paying to unlock them since they're already on the disc

>>383784875

back then it didn't cost months of extra work with hundreds of people getting extra pay checks

>>383787746
In terms of data all that shit weights around 12GB so far, pretty much a whole another DOA5 in your storage, 24GB isn't much but it really puts in perspective how much of a DLC fest the series has turned into.

>>383788758
What am I looking at

>>383784875
You mean right now? Most games with costume DLC have unlockable costumes in the game already along with the paid DLC. Maybe you should stop acting like a spoiled brat that wants every little thing for free and enjoy what you have?

Doing challenges in old games used to net you neat rewards like costumes or even unique weapons and shit. Now it gives you an "achievement" which is literally nothing.

>>383794698

Have you even played the game? You are constantly out of ammo and have to spare bullets if you find some.

And again, play the damn game before you say shit anon.

>>383788758
Why wouldn't you just emulate the GC version?

>>383791937
Because they are wonky as fuck to get working and they don't allow for higher resolutions?

>>383784875
yep. some of them were also damn near impossible to unlock.

>Beat the game in under two hours without dying
>Unlock Heroine in a sexy cowgirl outfit

or you can pay a dollar or two for a costume Or Don't. In most games, DLC costumes are just a visual change and don't offer any in-game bonuses, so there's literally no reason to buy them or try to unlock them unless you really want to see your character walking around in a leather catsuit or something

>>383794910
I played the game until episode 3 and dropped it because it was painfully mediocre

>>383795003
>painfully mediocre
That's original RE formula for you anon.

>>383794561
But Revelations 1 feels like a budget RE4 with a slightly more open map.

F2P MMOs craze where costumes were a common thing. Later on it spread to other multiplayer genres and then single player games. The rise of mobile gaming where microtransactions are the norm and that are the first games the youngest generation plays nowadays, getting used to the system very early, only makes it worse.

No. Boring grinding to farm insane amounts of cash and points is like a poorly paid job.

Between farming (which more often than not is not actually playing the game but repeating ad infinitum a side activity for ingame currency) and working a single hour and pay all the dlc...I choose paying.

I dont mind spending a thousand hours playing a game. But spending a housand hours to mine a million rocks? Fuck no. Thats not a game. Thats a poorly paid job.

>>383799019
>multiplayerfags are this deluded

>>383799125
Its true tho.

If grinding/farming for 1 costume is 5 hours and the costume costs 2.99 bucks, I ll pay.

I thought once there was some kind of shame there, but trust me there isnt. Not many games do unblockables right. Many just put you to grind or finish the game atrillion times.

And no, Im not missing freetime. I put like 50 hours in gaming any week. But I wont use those 50 hours farming innane shit.
