    “There are no microtransactions in pvz replanted, at launch. Can’t say a week after that, when the execs decide we aren’t milking gamer enough” - full quote probably

      I’m still angry about CTR. I was so hyped for that remake but didn’t buy immediately at launch so I’d avoid the launch bugs… and then they added the microtransactions. I will not pay for a game that has microtransactions, so I haven’t played it. The originals are still a blast though.

      Didn’t they do this with some BF? Or am I thinking of Activision with some CoD? Whatever, same shite.

      Do not trust EA.

        I wanna say yes, I know a few different companies did it. I think Capcom did it too. But yes don’t trust EA. They’ve proven time and again they can’t be trusted and don’t really care about delivering a good product that’s anything but a cash grab

        If it’s like Cities Skylines then that’s pretty decent. I never bought a DLC and yet I got lots of content updates on an already great base game

          Yeah, and fortunately the DLC the host has ourchased alis available to all party members when doing multiplayer, even if others haven’t purchased it. I would say that PI does DLC properly.

    Pre-order bonuses are a garbage anti-customer practice anyway.

    This ia worthless, even if it was an official promise I’d never trust EA. Also, I fully expect a kernel-level anticheat. We’ll see after it’s out for a few years, I’m not dumb enough to buy a game that’s not 75% off.
