Sounds like you want to change topics from your whole lies bit for some reason? Weird. Changing your defense from it being lies and a limited resource while not admitting the predatory nature of this game design. I dont care to argue your new bad faith points as you did not take the last stance fairly. I can't stand predatory microtransactions. The arrogance of people who don't care about it invading the game just allow further shit like this to fester.

I guess if we're changing topics, we can focus on the predatory character customization microtransaction. They locked any new saves or character creation to limit people to a microtransaction. That's pretty fucked up too.

Or we can go into Capcoms' recent attempts to take down mods from their old games. https://readwrite.com/capcom-backtracks-quickly-and-removes-drm-after-players-rebel/

There are plenty of problematic things to hit on here.

Have you tried to turn a circle in the main city on low settings?

Doesn't like that topic is being changed -> changes topic.

Also, you talk about eternal ferrystones, he talks about eternal ferrystones.

Carefull with the Cheeto-dust there my man.

Also, can you tell me exactly where the 'new save or character creation' microtransaction is? I can't seem to find it.

Also, character customisation is easily done by buying an item in game for a negligible amount of gold.

Your whole reply reeks of misinfo and bad faith acting. You're spreading misinfo. Woof.

I get it, you hate MTX, we all do. But there is no point in spreading idiocy.
