    Scams ruin everything.

    This is harming the entire video game industry… by making maximum profit come from addiction and frustration. We are all worse-off, because this makes more money. “Caveat emptor” doesn’t fucking work. That’s part of what makes this a scam. Outright boycotts don’t even work, because these greedy bastards can hook a bunch of severe addicts and siphon thousands from each of them. For hats. Or for a game that is, giant air quotes, “free.”

    There’s a fucking battle pass… in a Silent Hill game. How blatant does this problem have to get, before you stop pretending it’s just me, as an individual, having a snit? If we allow this to continue, there will be nothing else.
