Gamers aren't happy that Dragon's Dogma 2 includes microtransactions for basic features - and we think critics need to rescore it.

The review copies had no microtransactions. They were added at release.

That’s my point. Reviewers gave it great scores when there weren’t any microtransactions and they haven’t changed anything in the game to make those microtransactions important. You can play the game the exact same way the reviewers did by just ignoring them.

~~You misunderstand, the mtx were essentially unlocked in the reviewers versions, not simply missing features. ~~

Edit: apparently my last edit didn’t get submitted somehow, but I’m sorry about being misinformed and unintentionally spreading it. What I was told was wrong as it was spin that I read of what did happen: the those features were unlocked in the reviews… because they’re in the game, this was conveniently left out. Then I misread that as the games otherwise not having those features.

You have no clue what the fuck you’re talking about, spreading misinfo. You’re part of the problem with the modern internet, rat.

Rat?

Care to provide sources? I had a press preview of the game before release and nothing changed in my version, so I REALLY wonder where you get that information from.

I haven’t seen anything that has said that. I couldn’t find that in the article either.

Edit: I don’t care about the downvotes, but surely one of you could’ve replied with a link showing me where it says that reviewers had the mtx unlocked for them while reviewing.

Yea, Lemmy is fucking insufferable with this game. If the complaints were valid I’d understand (1 save file, performance). But this senseless parrotted incessant whinging about mtx for items that are easily obtained in game is just so weird to me. They want to be mad. The game is incredibly fun and I’m having a blast playing it. Never even once have I felt the need to even look at the mtx page because everything is just that readily available.

Bunch of dumbasses just want to be angry for no reason, and it really shows.
