  • The difference mostly is that the old games were games built first and microtransactions second. Slowly creeping up the invasive methods. Which is acceptable for most people.

    However new games have a fully fledged out microtransaction system and shop and the whole game is built around maximising profits. Just like mobile games are.

    It is rare that when you put the money first you will produce a game that is fun. And definitely not possible to make a good one.












  • What they want to sell:

    A mouse with the quality of the mice 20 years ago. And you need to subscribe to software updates. However the subscription is not optional. If you don’t pay monthly you can’t use the mouse.

    What I would actually pay for:

    A high quality mouse with an open interface and maybe open source software for it. So I can maintain the software by myself. Usually you can achieve a high quality standard in a few months, and unless there are some driver issues, it should work forever.

    I have a “gamer mouse” with a lot of features, custom dpi settings, custom color settings, rebinding keys and so on.

    However I used the software once to set it up and on Linux I can’t even change it. I will never receive any updates!
