    1. Everybody is claiming fraudsters, but I don’t see the evidence.

    2. Nintendo has had a huge crackdown in the last year on mods and video content including their branded IP.

    People just need to move on from this shitty company and find new favorites. Nintendo is an abusive company that does not give a shit about you being a fan. They just want to make shitty annual release clones of games.

    Please stop supporting this business.

    While you’re at it, please also quit buying Ubisoft games for a bit. That Star Wars Outlaws game needs to fail.

    If gamers could just not put up with this shit for like 1 year, we could have significant corrective action in these teams.

    I guarantee Nintendo would be begging for fan made content if they were no longer the monolith of Japanese development they have become.


  • Which is clearly necessary, and companies know it.

    Open any MMO built and organized around a player economy (designed by a for-profit corporation) and you will see they know that individual wealth can upset the balance of the game.

    They set maximum currency values, or they charge you periodic taxes for existing in the server.

    When people are being honest about wealth, we all know the concentration of wealth in the extreme fucks up the system for everybody.

    And video game systems do not even have a scarcity problem like the real world.













  • There were no microtransactions required on their lootbox system. It was a randomized level up system that could be skipped with money, similar to how people pay to speed level a battle pass.

    So yea, this is all inaccurate drama. It was a shitty system that people didn’t get, clearly seeing how people still don’t get it today.

    And it was all removed before the game was 1 week old, which was followed up with 4 years of free content.

    Name 1 Ubisoft game ever published that they removed all microtransactions from and pushed 4 years of free content.
