How Evolve’s DLC-Focused Business Model Spoiled the Reputation of a Great Game

CraveOnline: "For the past week I have been overlooking my adult responsibility of getting a decent night’s sleep in order to stay awake until 3am playing Evolve. I can’t remember the last time I found a multiplayer shooter so compelling that it has led to me deeming sleep unimportant, and I find it particularly surprising that the game which has made me wake up each morning in a state of deliriousness is one which sought to completely put me off it with its pre-release chatter of overly priced DLC and its free-to-play business model injected into a full retail release."

Nothing is worse for a retail game than whoring itself with a "free-2-play" model to force people to pay over double the price for the full experience.

I truly hope so.. day one buy

Ninver24d ago

Time for a change. Football games haven't evolved much.

Cacabunga24d ago

It’s tough when there is no competition

Abear2124d ago

There’s PES and now we’ll have FC25 and FIFA so yes, but it is no longer true, shit is about to get real!

Now if we only had two viable options for Basketball and American football we’d be on to something.

@Abear21
PES didn't exist since 2020, and the rebranded eFootball is crap.

porkChop23d ago

If what we've heard is true, the reason FIFA games don't change is literally because of FIFA itself rejecting nearly every pitch for new features and mechanics.

The barber shop and roulette wheel are going to be awesome.

Abear2124d ago

Pay to win is the new free to play

CrimsonWing6924d ago (Edited 24d ago )

It’ll be monetized to all hell, regardless

StormSnooper24d ago (Edited 24d ago )

Hmmm, let’s see how they do. If they riddle it with microtransactions, hell no. Otherwise, I’m excited.

Didn’t a leak about a max Payne remake surface a while ago?

banger8830d ago

I hope it's Mafia 4. And I really hope it's set during the 70s or 80s, and not a prequel of the first game as was rumoured.

TheColbertinator30d ago

Mafia 4 would be cool if set in a 70s to 80s era

2K Games is preparing to reveal the sequel to a "beloved franchise" at Summer Game Fest, with fans speculating that it might be Borderlands 4, BioShock 4, Mafia 4, and numerous other popular games.

Relientk7733d ago

I'm assuming it will be Borderlands 4. If it's Bioshock 4, I will be Bioshocked.

shinoff218333d ago

Xcom would be much better to reveal. Been needing some xcom 3

TheColbertinator33d ago

XCOM 3 would be my dream announcement

SpacedDuck32d ago

Please don't be a other generic Borderlands Game.

They are so boring due to the lack of innovation.

Demetrius32d ago (Edited 32d ago )
