Crossplay is in, good thing Sony wasn’t so dumb for once. (still not gonna buy this on ps5, but I like Arrowhead so I am buying on PC if the reviews are good.)
Helldivers 1 gated a lot of weapons behind DLC.
I'd assume that this would be the same; but i guess micro-transactions are more of a thing than they were 5 years ago.
I don’t love how many DLCs there are for Helldivers 1 but that way of doing things has some advantages over in-game shit with funny money credits that you can’t buy in the amounts you actually need. The most important one imo: the monetization is in plain-sight, visible before you even buy the game. Like Paradox strategy games, if the DLC being worth more than the game (sometimes several times over) bothers you, at least they’re upfront about it.
Darktide goes to some lengths to hide that its skin packs cost a lot, and some new or particularly desirable ones cost more than the amount of aquilas you get from the “Imperial” edition.
Yeah, I post somewhere but how they do the monetization is gonna change how I am gonna buy the game. I had the original helldiver free from ps plus, like it so when steam on sale I bought it later with all the DLC included. I would support them if they did a good job on PC, but only so when it’s reasonable.
I do not mind the skins or cosmetics too much, but more like contents affects how you play the game, helldiver 1 has this issue that’s why I bought when all the dlc are included.
