If theres 1 free redo, you get 2 chances to do character edits. Im not a fan of the "pay to edit" thing but like........if you cant get your character right after 2 tries and you pay to edit again, i dont exactly have sympathy. Playing dressup is supposed to come with the armors, not the character editor.
On the other hand, what cost is it to Capcom to let players "redo" whenever they want? Some people just like trying new things.
This is just a cash grab aimed at people who have alternative ways they want to play, with no real benefit to anyone but Capcom. I don't care what people look like, as long as they don't throw a hunt for the lols. And if it makes someone else happy to have a weird troll with an underbite one week and a giant Smurf the next, who am I to say that's the wrong way to play?
Just seems like Capcom further forcing people to fit within their box. First it was the anti-mod rootkit, now it's limited in-game customizations.
Wow this is one of the most pathetic comments I have ever seen.
"If you haven't figured out how to enjoy the game in two attempts, get fucked buddy! That's your fault for attempting to explore avenues if enjoyment! You need to do it my way, or face the consequences of payment!"
I don't know how we got to not just complacency in these predatory practices, but outright defending them too.
Pretty soon you'll be asking the company to directly shit in your mouth rather than present it on a plate.
Yeah that is NOT what im fucking saying. Thank you for putting words in my mouth and attacking me over it
This game already costs $70. People should be able to play the game they paid for however they want. If they want to keep redoing their character, let them.
Yeah I agree, its pointless monetization that only hurts the consumer
Wow, that's quite the 180.
Its not, I said quite plainly that I dont like what Capcom is doing here. I also said I feel no sympathy for anyone buying it.
I would prefer editing to not be locked behind money. It is a monster hunting game, however. If you paid $70 to play dressup you might have bought the wrong game. Not saying it cant be fun and not bashing peoples enjoyment.
It's this that I found to be ironic. You say in the first post you don't have sympathy, but then later that pointless monetization is bad. So it sound like you're defending Capcom and attacking them at the same time.
Better? Its not a hard concept to read
Ok, but that has absolutely nothing to do with the game. If someone rerolls a dozen times, yeah, maybe they're dumb, but that doesn't mean they should have to pay a "dumb tax." Either make it a proper feature, or take it out entirely, charging for it doesn't benefit customers in any way.
Yes, thats what Im agreeing with. I never 180d anything. I just feel no sympathy for a fool and his wallet, but the scam shouldnt have existed to begin with
If this feature is unneeded, why is it then available for paying users?
In Cyberpunk 2077 it took me forever to figure out the perfect sized tits to pair with the perfect sized cock on my V so I think we play games differently.
