The funny thing to me is, Dragon’s Dogma 1, in its original release on Xbox 360 and ps3, had microtransactions. You could buy rift crystals, lots of cosmetics, quests, etc. Then they released Dark Arisen as a complete collection sort of thing all dlc included, but I think you could still buy more for that too, mainly just the rift crystals.

Besides that, it seems like every single Capcom game in the last 10 years or something has had mountains of paid dlc, like buying proud souls and blue orbs in the DMC games (consumable upgrade materials), upgrades in resident evil games, all sorts of stuff. Not that I’m defending Capcom’s actions, I don’t like what they do here, but I just wonder why it was Dragon’s Dogma 2 that broke the camel’s back instead of any of their other games.

The demolisher necramechs not disabling abilities like the normal disruption enemies made it so painless, as a Valkyr main who needs to stay in hysteria forever. Plus the game mode is so fast anyway, versus any of the game modes that basically force you into sitting on your butt for 5 minutes at a time. I got my Dante crafting and both weapons already picked up, though I guess at some point I should go back for more capillaries so I can get the captura scenes for sale too.

Yep, that’s me. When I still actively used reddit, I felt this with every message, was always afraid I was off the mark, or didn’t read the room, or said something wrong or ignorant.

I just turned off notifications and ignored my karma count to just post through it. Though, I usually said things that either never got any votes, or that people seemed to generally agree with. And I was relieved whenever I did notice the numbers going up instead of down, and occasionally worked up the courage to check responses and continue conversations, but usually nothing.

This has really not changed since moving to Lemmy, and really just persists through every website. It sucks, I mostly just don’t comment.
