Free vs Freemium vs Upfront games (Gaming)
I tried to point out you're not paying for certain weapons, levels, multiplayer maps, or anything that would cause you to miss the core experience. I think that's important, and not something negotiable (because it is integral to the experience that you want to give your audience). But optional features such as Photo Mode, color pallets, skins, etc. That's non-essential work that devs often leave on the cutting floor, or things that end up not being as fleshed out as they could be, because they don't consider it worth the time and resources to implement, since the experience is fine without them. And while they are right, don't people shell out more for Blu-Rays that have extra features?
Don't you enjoy watching Deleted Scenes, Director Commentary, extended cuts, etc?
A photo mode for example, is part of the game. Blu Ray extra features are not part of the movie.
Considering that extra features of blu-rays often change my movie watching experience of said movie, I personally interpret it as part of the movie.
Does a No clip documentary about the game change your experience of the game? I guess it's part of the game! So are all the reviews and criticism, adverts, and twitch streamers!
Will your book affect how people might see Destiny? Then it’s a part of the game, and you’re a massive hypocrite if you charge a single cent for it!
I'll charge whatever I want because it most certainly is NOT part of the game.
Oh, so now supplemental stuff that doesn’t have to do with the core of a “piece of art” is no longer part of it, because it’s not convenient to Cody. Funny how that works, man. We’ll see if you prove me right by charging for it. ;)
This goes back to my original point that you dismissed, was that photo mode DOES HAVE TO DO WITH THE CORE of a video game that includes it. It's as much a part of the game as the ability to jump and shoot.
