Firstly, im 26. I'd like to think im young, but not as young as you seem to belive.
This is the entire reason i asked for people to read before raging. People see the word 'micro transactions' and flip out.
Its not about instant gratification. Its about time over money. Do i have alot of time to play games? No. Am i willing to pay for the ability to speed my progression so i can enjoy a game alot more to the same degree that people who have alot of time do? Yes.
TBH i play alot of games in my spare time. Ive got this, Titanfall, over 200 games on steam, and have to devide my attention between them. May of these have time = unlocks mechanics, and i cant play them all. Last week i managed 6 hours on PvZ:GW, and that seemed like alot to me. I unlocked 1 new class varient that week (and thanks to RMG its or a class i dont even like to play).
All im thinking is that they could offer favorable trasaction rates for very small prices, and those funds can be chaneled into the creation of more 'free' content for the comunity. If you want an example of this, look at 'Warframe' on the PC.
Thank you wolf for saying EXACTLY what I was thinking when I plainly put no on my original post yet op replied trying to troll bait me into an arguement.
Well, this is obviously a touchy subject. Why not make the majority happy by having special weekend or holiday type events that give everyone who plays extra coins or bonus packs for completing certain objectives instead of bringing more money into it? There are many other games that do this!
(ive got to stop hitting the solution button rather than the reply)
That sort of thing would be good, but again it disadvantages those who cant play during certain times, or cant play for long periods. It'd be a nice direction to look in though.
And thanks for being the first person to approach the topic in a calm demeanour.
No problem. I thought of another varient on the games since we already have classic. For those who want to try out all the characters and upgrades, have an ultimate game variant where everything is unlocked for everyone. Things remain even across the board and the casual players get to try out everything.
