Except in this case the customers were right. If you read the article, they put 95% of the items behind a paywall, while the majority (but understandably some) should have been grind able. These are the tactics that give microtransactions a bad name in the first place. It's preying on people's wallets rather than good honest hours put into the game.
I'm not going to excuse the behaviour of the customers, but as the dev, no matter the criticism, you never, EVER,...
That...doesn't matter?
They hire people from different backgrounds who HAVE made third person action games...
Not just asshats, but freeloaders and dicks too...
If there's anyone we don't need back in gaming, it's this toxic guy
Wait, so being part of a party means you agree with 100% of everything the members say and do?
Not only that, but party opinions change over the years... Just like people do.
Is everybody forgetting there already was a Star Wars EA game with a female protagonist of a different ethnicity?
Iden Versio?
And she didn't exactly get the "best" reaction:

(Yes, its wikipedia but its all I got)
@Tiqila
It's not that I understand it, it's just that it's an over exaggeration.
Kind... of?
I mean you don't press a button and get surprise rape sex like you do to press a button and get random loot boxes. You can choose to buy one.
I'm not condoning EA in any way and what she says in the article is bull. But I'm just saying about your comment...
Gamist2dot0... it was a terrible attempt at it.
How on earth you'd mistake GOD WARS Future Past for "God of War" is baffling considering they are titled differently...
That's just lazy reading.
It baffles me a bit considering the digital version is still vastly more expensive in the UK...
I like how this article says "trophies are colour coded based on difficulty"
CLEARLY the writer has never played a Souls/Bloodborne game. Some of the gold trophies are easy, some bronze trophies take AGES and are quite difficult.
Haven't read the article yet, but did someone forget to tell this person that Star Wars 1313 was cancelled?
I'd love to know what you mean by "Preachy" Jim.
If you're referring to the violence, betrayal, murder, and character development, then it can preach away.
If you're referring to DAT KISS....
Then get out.
Because preaching would be Ellie shouting "I'M GAY. IM KISSING THIS GIRL! LOOK AT ME! IM KISSING THIS GIRL"
Did you even watch the video?
You say you seem similarities but if you'd watched it fully, you'd notice it's almost a carbon copy... heck EVEN SOME OF THE SHOTS THEY USED ARE SIMILAR.
And that's JUST twitch.
If it were the opposite and he was saying "Xbox players are dwindling on N4G" people would go:
"Yup. Makes perfect sense!"
I've been on N4G for a good 8 years and I've noticed the massive amount of Sony "fanboys" all this time.
It's always been there whether you deny it or not. Years ago it actually reached toxic levels. Not so much now but it did.
Ffs I don't want "Pokemon-like" for crying out loud.
Hate these sorts of games as they're way worse than they are shown
I want ACTUAL Pokémon. ACTUAL POKEMON.
Not to burst anyones bubble, but news EXACTLY like this happened years ago for the first red dead redemption.
And we still waiting.
Remember when FromSoft said they had 3 projects they were working on, which turned out to be Sekiro, Armoured Core and that other doll game? And then apparently Elden Ring has been in development for years?
Yeah... no doubt Sekiro was just a side project whereas Elden Ring will be the big hitter. Regardless though, Sekiro was still fantastic and did really well in sales!
