Welcome to the largest gaming community on Lemmy! Discussion for all kinds of games. Video games, tabletop games, card games etc.
Rules
1. Submissions have to be related to games
Video games, tabletop, or otherwise. Posts not related to games will be deleted.
This community is focused on games, of all kinds. Any news item or discussion should be related to gaming in some way.
2. No bigotry or harassment, be civil
No bigotry, hardline stance. Try not to get too heated when entering into a discussion or debate.
We are here to talk and discuss about one of our passions, not fight or be exposed to hate. Posts or responses that are hateful will be deleted to keep the atmosphere good. If repeatedly violated, not only will the comment be deleted but a ban will be handed out as well. We judge each case individually.
3. No excessive self-promotion
Try to keep it to 10% self-promotion / 90% other stuff in your post history.
This is to prevent people from posting for the sole purpose of promoting their own website or social media account.
4. Stay on-topic; no memes, funny videos, giveaways, reposts, or low-effort posts
This community is mostly for discussion and news. Remember to search for the thing you're submitting before posting to see if it's already been posted.
We want to keep the quality of posts high. Therefore, memes, funny videos, low-effort posts and reposts are not allowed. We prohibit giveaways because we cannot be sure that the person holding the giveaway will actually do what they promise.
5. Mark Spoilers and NSFW
Make sure to mark your stuff or it may be removed.
No one wants to be spoiled. Therefore, always mark spoilers. Similarly mark NSFW, in case anyone is browsing in a public space or at work.
6. No linking to piracy
Don't share it here, there are other places to find it. Discussion of piracy is fine.
We don't want us moderators or the admins of lemmy.world to get in trouble for linking to piracy. Therefore, any link to piracy will be removed. Discussion of it is of course allowed.

F2P with MTX, got it.
Yeah F2P with MTX, mostly cosmetic, but some that make your life easier.
Yes but that's still different from f2p with paid content
Isn't that just the standard f2p mmo experience
Hat stores and "buy more space to hoard the loot we design the game to make you need" mtx shouldn't be given the free pass they get, especially by players that go nuclear over paid character DLC.
I agree, but it's also true that once you put 40€ in stash tabs bought in sales, you don't really need more. In sales 40€ should give you enough to buy a premium/merchant tab plus all the major special tabs, and from there on it's pretty much whatever.
They don't really make tons of new shinnies each league anymore, and if they do they now usually give you a dedicated tab for free. This league the only issue was foulborn currency and implant currency, but if you had a currency tab those go to the bottom side and you never fill that part in the last leagues we got. I have a premium tab for all the league currencies of tabs I don't own but have an affinity, and it doesn't get filled usually.
And take into account that LE is a paid game, people have already put their 30-40€ in LE, now they are asking more just to get the end of the story. We still don't have a complete campaign and they are asking money to propel that already paid just to see it finished.
That's how I see it, PoE is a 40€ paid game with a free review (though not marketed like that) while LE is a paid game where they are going to release paid expansions and paid characters. Even Torchlight Infinite (the most p2w of them all) doesn't do paid characters, the new ones become free in the next season.
