I mean yeah but gamers keep supporting shitty companies that provide the exact opposite in record numbers so we don’t get stuff like this much anymore.

Yeah, shitty companies like Valve with their lootbox nonsense and other gambling mechanics are really bringing the industry down.

They’re entirely cosmetic in Valve games as far as I’m aware

The argument of cosmetic only microtransactions is also a bit of a weak one because it’s the sort of content that would usually just be in the base game, unlockable via gameplay or tied to cheat codes.

Cosmetic only is still better than other types but it’s still a case of the lesser of two evils.

We game for what we game for. Some people game for the cosmetics. They are selling what consumers buy. I’m not saying it’s right. But if they keep buying why wouldn’t they sell it?
