It's pretty gross. Blatant, codified manipulation of game structures to squeeze extra money out of consumers who already paid full price for a product, using a system that has proven, time and again, to be tantamount to gambling and which preys on the same addictions.

We need legislation. The video game industry has proven it is incapable of stopping this poor behavior on its own.


It's called not buying stuff. If nobody bought from Tess, then the cost to implement the store would outweigh the gain, and it would be abandoned.

This pisses me off; they are just doubling down on a horrible decision and strategy. Maybe it makes sense financially, but artistically it is bankrupt.

You can't stop addicts by telling them "just don't be addicted."
