You'll need to pay to edit your Monster Hunter Wilds character beyond the first free redo (www.rockpapershotgun.com)

Yeah I agree, its pointless monetization that only hurts the consumer

Wow, that's quite the 180.

[–] Bbbbbbbbbbb@lemmy.world -2 points 2 days ago (1 children)

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.

if you cant get your character right after 2 tries and you pay to edit again, i dont exactly have sympathy

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.

If you buy this stupid shit youre a dumbass

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
