You know what? I know how much a movie costs, and how long it lasts, and the same for games. When you over-simplify and view through a narrow lense tainted with your own prejudices and biases you're likely to miss the point. I played D1 for several hours a day several days of the week. If they could keep churning out new, GOOD, content constantly, I would GLADLY pay $30-60 a month for said content. Of course, if the content were cleverly constructed so as to offer better replayability, the content could come out less frequently. Also, I expect to get the content in the game by PLAYING THE -blam!-ING GAME, not by putting cash down on carnival games. Don't give me that "you get bright engrams by playing the game," bullshit argument. People ran the math. Season 1 Eververse items were available for around two months, then DISAPPEARED. So a huge portion of the loot was available for a short time, and it would have taken thousands of hours to earn them or anywhere from an additional $80 (the cost of D2 and CoO combined) to $10,000 (THE COST OF 166 GAMES OR A GOOD USED CAR!!!) to buy them!!! Considering there's only 1440 hours in a two month period, and only 1200 if you sleep enough to, ya know, stay alive, only one of those options work, and it's not the grind. We don't object to paying for content, we object to this! If more of the items in Eververse were rewards for in-game progress and Eververse only had 10-20 items that were BONUSES with fixed prices so we could just say " I like that special BONUS set of armor and I don't mind spending a few bucks to get it," most people would be OK. We don't like the system where some people will get that armor for $3 but some people can't get it for $300 or more. We don't object to paying for content, we object to paying for content only to find half of what we paid for IS behind a second paywall, we object to that paywall being random chance with real money, and we object to having to pay between $140 to $10,060 to get the crap-ass content that either should have been included in the damn game WITHOUT leaving availability in the game after a few months, or been in a goddamn FTP game. You seem to think people are just led by the nose by youtube videos. You know, there's a difference between being led by the nose and agreeing with something or coming to a conclusion as knowledge and information is gathered. So what are you? Because you sure as hell, are not informed
