How silly of me, I hadn't realised cosmetic emotes weee the equivalent of part 2 of a movie.

There is no need to act like you are an entitled gamer, the content of the post does it on its own.

Don't you dare. First off, ad hominem doesn't help anyone. Second, let's talk about "gamer entitlement". People throw that phrase around as catch-all belittlement any time someone has an issue with a dev or publisher, particularly in regards to tgeir business practices. It's great, because it makes a person feel small and makes their opinions seem invalid without actually saying anything. It's not even relevant if you read the content of my post.

If I was entitled I'd be complaining that I don't get these items for free (or that I've paid for the game, where's my Hawkmoon I paid for?). But all I've talked about is how it's bad business.

We talk a lot about gamer entitlement, but it's only ever used as an insult. It doesn't contribute anything to the conversation, and is usually just a way of saying "shut up and take it like a man". It's funny, because gamers actually are entitled to certain qualities and services when they make a purchase. Now that's not relevant to this discussion, but it's something to remember.

What is relevant to this conversation is that either you didn't read it properly, you jumped to conclusions, or both. And then from there, instead of a decent conversation you jumped into personal attacks. Against a stranger. Because he dared to have a different opinion to you.

So next time, get the f*ck outta here with your "entitled" shit. It does nothing but make you look bad.
