R700-R900 for a game and Microtransactions? Not a chance...

 

[Nerhzelok]

Not a $#@% would I support games like that.

Forza Horizon 3 is the first and last Forza game I will ever buy because of this. I don't have any games that heavily implement microtransactions, since I'm not into multiplayer

making money on in-game vanity is ok by me, as long as it has no influence on game play.

who cares if some people like to play dress up with their character

Agree, have no issue with cosmetic items in fact I've spent a bit myself on HOTS boxes. I do have an issue with the new Middle Earth Shadows of War model whereby the loot boxes will have a material impact on the play itself (gear, xp, followers, etc) while the game ALREADY costs between R900 - R1200 depending on which version you go for. That is a LOT.

I haven't pirated a game in a long time (thank Steam for that) but will probably make an exception for this. Screw the bastards.

Nothing wrong with loot boxes in F2P games. In Games like Star Wars BF2 its bull****!

Thank you. Punish these unethical bastards.
