When did it become a crime to exploit glitches in games? This is how I always play games, dammit!
I don't want to play paint by numbers, I like to look for kinks in the game mechanics to see if I can make it work to my advantage or just do something interesting.
Just recently I was exploiting the snake glitch to give me lots of extra snakes even though the game was apparently designed to make me just suffer and moan about it until someone fixed it so I could get back to mindless tapping. Well, that's not how I like to play. Have I been bad? Will I be paddled?
I've given lots of money to EA in the past for The Sims games. One of my favorite things about The Sims is there seems to be no end to the weird exploits you can discover and you never quite know if it's a glitch or a feature. I've been happy to pay for that and probably will again. Unless they make The Sims 4 a freemium game.
The weird thing about freemium is that it seems to give people like me no incentive to pay. I don't want to pay to win, I want to play the game and maybe try to beat it. To me putting money into this game would be much the same as getting one of those unlimited donut hacks, it just wouldn't really be interesting anymore and I would probably quit the game soon after. Why would I pay to stop playing?
If anyone is offended by this, feel free to unfriend me but don't blame me for your b***hurt, blame the freemium. There will always be people like me who only enjoy this type of games as long as they don't spend money on them. That doesn't take anything away from you.
