I agree. Burnout Paradise remaster, Madden 19, Anthem all made it worthwhile but access to all the Need for Speeds, battlefront and more are amazing. 

I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again:

Can we stop calling this a Destiny killer now (not aimed at Ethan)? They’re completely different games, aiming for different takes on the same genre. We’re both doing Anthem and the folks at Bioware a disservice expecting this game to kill Destiny (or Warframe, or Borderlands, or whatever), and we’re also hyping the…

I’m definitely going to play the game. I certainly didn’t mean that the game looked bad, or made a bad decision. I just saw a situation I could relate to, and then the focus on alcohol was a slight disappointment as it at first seemed a break away from the more common trope. That said, it still seems like a good game…

I don’t object to paying itself, it’s the randomized gambling approach they’ve adopted.

The problem is when a lot of the controversy came from false and/or misleading info and articles. There were plenty of things that got heavily upvoted to reddit’s front page and talked about in a lot of places that were entirely stupid. I remember seeing one article that a lot of people were posting where the title…

So your complaint boils down to: to get this thing I have to play the game I bought.

That is a fair point. I agreed with the first comment on this thread at first but you have changed my mind. There would be nothing productive coming out of speculating and raging about a system we don’t know anything about yet. Kudos for staying level-headed, Jason.

fuck this guy for cheating and fuck you for endorsing it.

Finally someone who is actually playing the game and not just trolling comment boards thinking they’re solving the world’s problems. The mob hate for this game is ridiculous.

It’s really sad seeing everyone freak out about something that isn’t game breaking at all. I’ve seen maybe two or three people that likely spent some money on boxes before it was taken down. I never had issues with any of them.

The game is fun as hell, and the heroes are easily unlockable now. Progression being tied to loot boxes isn’t ideal, but I haven’t found it game-breaking. You can craft almost any card you want with crafting parts.

Really too bad because it is a very fun game to play.

I also haven’t felt hampered by the progression system in Multiplayer one bit (not even half a bit) so... as per usual - internet just blowing stuff WAY out of proportion without any actual experience with what they are bemoaning.

“It’s a fucking complaint about a fucking video game, you ridiculous whining hypocrite. Don’t read it.”

“Because people can only care about or advance one cause at a time...”

It’s a fucking video game. It’s just a mother fucking product. If you don’t want to play the game, don’t buy it. It’s like, if you don’t like a movie, don’t see it. If you don’t like a comic book, don’t buy it. The developer has no responsibility to you whatsoever. You aren’t entitled to jack shit.

I’ll leapfrog here to say that there’s a line between advocacy and something else. Battlefront II devs were talking about receiving death threats today on Twitter. I get that folks are upset... I’ve been pretty vocal too... but I want to use this as a general opportunity to remind folks to approach these issues…

Seriously. People paid for these games, and if they’re not going to support them, customers have every right to do whatever they can to be able to ACTUALLY USE THE PRODUCTS THEY PAID FOR.

I suspect the new storyline will be set in the Jungles of Chult, and decided to make a video on the lore and background story of the Chult:

In prep for running my players through this Dungeon, I made a video about the History of Thay. Give them some background on the crazy wizards who made the dungeon.
They quite enjoyed the extra fluff I provided before putting their characters through hell :)
