Games as a Service is awesome, & hearken back to shareware (Off-Topic)

by Earendil, Wednesday, September 24, 2014, 12:12 (3503 days ago) @ Korny

I'm unfamiliar with Mass Effect 3 and how it made money. I am familiar with DOTA2 and how it's a free to play game that also has micro transactions that have zero effect on gameplay and provide no advantage.

The systems I hate are when people are allowed to pay to get ahead. Of course, for every one of those people that pays to get ahead, someone not willing to do so should have to pay less...
