2·1 day agoIt is implied: most people do expect to keep a game if they buy it. There’s no expectation to keep an arcade machine after inserting coins. Everyone who paid for extra lives or whatever powerups should have done so with a clear expectation that the online game that they haven’t purchased will die eventually. Nobody is being duped or betrayed.
Giving it out for free would be nice and probably wouldn’t cost them too much, but it’s also unreasonable to demand something that was never promised. Damn, I can’t believe I’m defending some free-to-play pay-to-win microtransaction online service hell game, but I guess even they can do something
rightnot wrong every now and then.

2·2 days agoI tried to look at what they were selling and it doesn’t seem like anything you’re buying is actual content, but rather a shortcut to success. Microtransactions suck, but if ownership wasn’t promised or implied anywhere, what are the players exactly entitled to? I just don’t see any lies, broken promises, or failed expectations.
