I don't really spend on microtransactions, I spend my money strictly on games.

Good thing I waited until at least a couple weeks after a game launches before I even consider buying a game. I also learned from the whole Star Wars Battlefront 2 fiasco so I know to give any EA title at least 2 months because they'll start to ruin the game within that timeframe.

I agree with your comment for the most part but there are companies like Nintendo, CD projekt Red and a few others that have policies in place to ensure that their staff is satisfied and treated well.

I bought used games back when I had consoles and the games were physical copies but now that I own a gaming PC and a tablet, I have no choice but to get brand new games.

Some games like RDR2 Online I have yet to play because it is horrendous quite frankly. When it is in a better state I'll probably change my stance towards it.

VR could be somewhat of an alternative but you don't want your pets looking at you like this

I'm worried that Dragon Age will be just as terrible as Anthem because EA more or less confirmed Dragon Age is going to be a live-service game (hasn't anyone of these companies learned from the failure of most of these types of games). Knowing EA they'll fill with microtransactions for pretty much every aspect of the game.

You have a valid point there and I really hope they don't go full EA on us because Nintendo is one of the few top gaming companies that I still love for the quality of their games.

The funny thing is, those jokes turned out to be the truth because EA ultimately confirmed as much when they were discussing the future of Fifa a few years back. This is one of the main reasons i don't touch any EA games at all anymore - They are charging far too much for the sub-par games they keep putting out.

Every controversial event with Gearbox Studios always has something to do with him as the catalyst in some way. All the negative PR Gearbox gets is because of him - I don't respect him at all either.

A couple weeks after the reviews were out and everything settled down, they add P2W lootboxes and other microtransactions systems and they have been adding more over time.

I second that one - I used to be boxing and doing exercises all the time to keep CJ extremely buffed. It's a shame they have never implemented those mechanics into another GTA game because it was way ahead of its time in terms of implementation.

Themes are nice and all but I'd rather a review that focuses on the gameplay because that is the main reason for playing a game in the first place.

Back in the days, when GTA Vice City and San Andreas were around, I used to clock 16+ Hours playing those games on the weekends - well on Sundays anyways because I used to go out on Saturday Nights.

Nintendo, CD Projekt Red and Valve I've heard treat their staff pretty well but the others all have horror stories and former employees revealing the horrible working conditions they had to tolerate.
