untold kayak
modest parcel
#

It's on the mobile sonic forces flyer

grand cobalt
#

nevermind, there is a sick enough freak

silent haven
grand cobalt
#

what fucking mobile forces flyer 😭

thick tinsel
#

How would you fake that

dusty osprey
#

There was alot of behind the scenes shit. But i just think some folks prefer zero and maybe some bad blood between some folks at capcom and inafune.

thick tinsel
#

Those are separate filers tbf

modest parcel
#

They're part and parcel tbh

still epoch
#

Ok so its real cool

wide portal
#

okay that’s way too precise to be faked

stiff salmon
#

yeah no its real

modest parcel
#

???

stiff salmon
#

link just popped up on my end

modest parcel
#

Are you talking about the crossworlds one

thick tinsel
#

That mobile game flier is for Sonic Forces Speed Battle

stiff salmon
#

mobile flyer

stiff salmon
prime hearth
#

can they just video themselves with thei flier in-hand or summat

modest parcel
dusty osprey
#

Wait

#

Also why would they hide that

modest parcel
silent haven
#

already did.

modest parcel
#

LMAO

dusty osprey
#

Like everything else got annouced for the most part

hasty plume
#

FUCK YES MEGAMAN

#

ALL YALL ARE BASIC

dusty osprey
#

Why would they hide megaman

grand cobalt
#

oh my god dawg IS IT REAL OR NOT

modest parcel
thick tinsel
#

Idk

hasty plume
#

@verbal tundra YOURE COOL

grand cobalt
#

actually

stiff salmon
prime hearth
#

too late for that now tho!

silent haven
wise chasm
#

the shrodinger's megaman

dusty osprey
still epoch
#

Im just saying feels right

verbal tundra
hasty plume
modest parcel
grand cobalt
#

tgs has a mystery slot for characters so either way

modest parcel
#

This is so funny

ember junco
grand cobalt
#

we're getting something, mega man or not

dusty osprey
#

Especially because at tgs pacman and sonic are having a special booth

modest parcel
wise chasm
#

It could be a TGS thing

...or it could be a State of Play thing

grand cobalt
#

(i hope)

wise chasm
ember junco
dusty osprey
#

Why annouce megaman there

dawn pumice
#

Prob state of play

thick tinsel
#

If it ends up being real, Sonic Central announcement maybe?

dense snow
#

wait when is tgs again

ember junco
#

Didn’t even show up

still epoch
#

I think TGS makes more sense for meg

ember junco
#

Had his own party

prime hearth
#

ohhhh shit I forgor about state of play

grand cobalt
prime hearth
#

yeah prolly that then

dense snow
#

ahh

prime hearth
#

the SxSG dlc reveal there was super casual lol

#

reckon they'll just drop it in there again

ember junco
thick tinsel
#

Actually ngl SOP would make sense

silent haven
#

im leaning towards it being real and them just not giving a shit about making sure the qr code actually worked because that’d be entirely normal behaviour for sega but we’ll see

grand cobalt
#

"report" is saying they're planning on a sop before tgs so

#

maybe lol

still epoch
#

Can we have like

wise chasm
#

bruh I don't care at this point, I just want the game

#

in my hands

still epoch
#

Can we have Mega Man 8 Mega and not the Smash one

wise chasm
#

crying

grand cobalt
#

is that good or bad

wise chasm
#

sobbing even

still epoch
#

So it is just like the comics

dusty osprey
#

Forget that bum

#

Where's x

untold kayak
wheat kindle
#

In a future DLC

dusty osprey
#

Get that child to bed

wide portal
#

hi Sega next time please don’t spoil your season pass in THE BOX THAT IS INEVITABLY GOING TO LEAK BECAUSE OF STREET DATES 😭

untold kayak
#

or Megaman 2 megaman?

dusty osprey
#

Wheres x or zero

ember junco
#

He isn’t So Retro

dusty osprey
wheat kindle
#

Just thinking, Wily Fortress from MM2 and its music will likely be in

hasty plume
still epoch
#

I hate mm2

wheat kindle
#

It's Mega Man's GHZ

still epoch
#

Its gonna be mm2

dusty osprey
#

If anything battle network is the most beloved

hasty plume
#

when was the last x game
when was the last megaman game

dusty osprey
#

By sales alone

silent haven
#

the ‘my games stopped being good halfway through the series’ corner

hasty plume
#

and which megaman game has the highest sales

thick tinsel
#

October 2, 2018

wise chasm
dusty osprey
wise chasm
#

I don't know btw, I only know that collection did the best out of all of them

hasty plume
verbal tundra
prime hearth
#

oh

#

OH

#

THE NEW COLLECTION

prime hearth
#

THATS WHY WE’RE GETTING MEGA MAN

#

TIE-IN FOR THAT COLLECTION

thick tinsel
#

I think Megaman is coming because of the new collection lol but also new game lol

untold kayak
verbal tundra
#

Star Force Mega man would be hype

prime hearth
#

Fully on the legit train now, obvious cross-promotion

dusty osprey
#

Battle network was in pokemon circles. No other megaman had motion like that

#

They all kneel before bn

hasty plume
#

megaman 11 is the highest selling game

also megaman taisen was leaked a while ago when capcom had a databreach and has yet to come out and we are just now catching up to the leaked internal calendar bc covid

grand cobalt
#

oh its so obvious lmao

prime hearth
thick tinsel
#

Yeah Rockman Taisen leaked in 2020

hasty plume
#

along with a buncha other shit

#

and due to covid and other things that calendar of leaked shit has been severely delayed

dusty osprey
#

Eh

#

That leak doesnt mean its in dev

thick tinsel
#

I think MH Wilds was supposed to release like 2-3 years ago

dusty osprey
#

And im not even trying to be mean. Theres a x game thats allegedly been in dev for years

prime hearth
#

nearly everything from the pass ties into something current releasing atm (sponge, Minecraft and avatar cos movies, Pac-Man for world 2) so it lines up perfectly

dusty osprey
#

I dont trust capcom with megaman untill i see it

#

And as of currently it seems like folks have 0 interest to finish these projects

prime hearth
#

TMNT is the only exception cos I think mutant mayhem’s sequel is still a bit far off iirc?

scarlet ether
#

So the physical copy came in early and MEGA MAN is in it

#

Ok cool

hasty plume
scarlet ether
#

Geo Stellar is coming out

dusty osprey
wide portal
#

DLC was probably already in development before it was pushed back

hasty plume
#

also he literally works with capcom on
many things

prime hearth
hasty plume
#

his site is literally where the archie reprints got announced

dusty osprey
#

That has nothing to do with my claim of "i dont know if that games still a thing but we'll see"

grand cobalt
#

there's rumors of a new eva game soon,,,,

need my second season pass hopes to come true

dusty osprey
#

I dont need this person

scarlet ether
#

Still tho, the last slot being MEGA MAN is something to think about

dusty osprey
#

I know people thanks

still epoch
#

Id say its perfect

dawn pumice
#

My demon slayer hopes died

#

😭

scarlet ether
#

Like are they adding in basic ass Rock/Mega or Geo Stellar cuz the Star Force collection is literally next year

dusty osprey
scarlet ether
hasty plume
#

sega has the license

scarlet ether
#

Straight up

prime hearth
dawn pumice
dusty osprey
prime hearth
#

Demon Slayer I think would be a shoo-in for a second pass cos the new movie atm is doing gangbusters

grand cobalt
#

mha was already leaked for rumble too so anime isn't out of the question

dusty osprey
#

Oh yeah

#

I forgot about that

#

Fair enough

dawn pumice
#

And V jump is one of the collaborators for the stickers

prime hearth
#

fuck both of those where’s my Gundam crossover

grand cobalt
#

tbh though

#

fiery

#

since they're a licensing partner

#

there could be a chance of demon slayer in the sega partners dlc

hasty plume
#

could've been crash
sega just collabed with Activision to put persona in overwatch

coarse ferry
#

WHAT!?

modest parcel
wide portal
#

are they gonna spread out the season pass

coarse ferry
#

MEGAMAN!?!?

grand cobalt
#

spreadddddd

wide portal
#

tmnt and avatar are later in 2026 yeah?

coarse ferry
#

WTF!

#

BROOOOOOOOOOOO

modest parcel
#

Unless the pass ends sooner than a whole year

dawn pumice
#

Def doesn’t seem like that

grand cobalt
#

the free dlc will carry over into 2026 anyways

wise chasm
#

so probably not

grand cobalt
#

12 characters, 1 a month, that should last until what

hasty plume
#

September

#

2026

grand cobalt
#

august actually

#

miku is coming this month

wise chasm
#

no, it's still September

#

cuz 13 characters

prime hearth
grand cobalt
#

i thought it was 12

#

😭

wise chasm
#

no?

#

It was always 13

grand cobalt
#

damn

modest parcel
#

Alright then yeah let's do an anime pass

grand cobalt

shadow is so fast is this the future or the past

hybrid hill

modest parcel
#

If SEGA made this flyer then like

grand cobalt
#

it's not that serious LMAO

wide portal
silent haven
#

i thought it was from hedgemod server

modest parcel
#

There's no reason to nuke people for getting the flyer early

wide portal
#

Did it actually get nuked????? what the FUCK

modest parcel
#

That's so funny

tawny talon
#

Its 100% real them

modest parcel
#

???

tawny talon
#

Thanks for confirming that Sega

dawn pumice
#

That doesn’t fully make it real tho

grand cobalt
#

i feel like that makes me more skeptical more than anything??

modest parcel
#

I think it's real but not for that reason 😭

thick tinsel
modest parcel
#

Some of y'all are too easy

grand cobalt
#

they didn't nuke the nights post why would they nuke some random ass flyer 😭

wide portal
#

we don’t have proof that it was because of the flyer yet

#

the acc could’ve just sudokued

silent haven
#

sega famous for caring about game leaks

thick tinsel
#

Tweet is still up but reddit post is gone

wide portal
tawny talon
#

If it’s fake, why nuke it then? I don’t remember Sega taking down fake leaks

modest parcel
tawny talon
#

or did I miss something?

modest parcel
#

Lol

wide portal
#

what are the chances that the poster faked it, saw their fake going viral, went “oh shit” and decided to disappear asap

silent haven
modest parcel
tawny talon
wide portal
grand cobalt
#

.

modest parcel
#

Or they just thought that they'd be in danger and got scared

thick tinsel
#

Idk if real or not atp

tawny talon
#

I assumed that the past real leaks got DMCA takedowns

wise chasm
#

yeah, could be fake then I guess

#

We'll know for sure in a week

thick tinsel
#

Also there is a Sonic Rumble ad in the Crossworlds physical lol

grand cobalt

ohhh BROTHER

Did they delete it because they feared SEGA would go after them when it blew up?

plane #1: nights
plane #2: mega man

prime hearth
#

capcom looking up from their newspaper going "we have a megas man?"

thick tinsel
#

How do you fuck this up lol

hasty plume
#

@verbal tundra WE WIN

wide portal
#

congratulations to Miku, Joker, Kasuga, Pac-Man and his ghost friends for being the only DLC characters who never leaked

dusty osprey
#

Capcom leaking other games is fitting for a capcom character

wide portal
#

anyway with all that said I am curious about general consensus now that we have the full season pass

dusty osprey
prime hearth
#

three gaming icons, classic and modern, well-picked

#

...and then there's the three paramount slid a cheque under the table for lmao

#

think if this was two separate passes it wouldn't have been as much of an issue tbh

stiff salmon
verbal tundra
wise chasm
#

So paid season pass - kinda mid, Spung kinda tanks the rest. Wonder what the rest of the free chars are gonna be

stiff salmon
#

i see season pass 2 coming

wise chasm
#

Since we know 4 (technically 5 if we count AiAi car in one of the CrossTalks), that leaves 9 more slots

prime hearth
#

I think the launch sales are gonna dictate whether we get a season pass 2 or not tbh

#

if it bangs they're def gonna keep em coming

dense snow
#

i imagine one of the free chars would prob be one of those damn birds that are angry

stiff salmon
#

everyone said FUCK mario on that season pass

wide portal
#

I imagine they’ve already started, like, early development for a second pass

dense snow
#

or among us if they wanna bring that over from monkey ball

#

godzilla would prob be unlikely, idk

stiff salmon
hasty plume
#

monster hunter?

#

crash bandicoot?

grand cobalt
#

i feel like they've at least started planning or throwing around ideas for a potential second one

prime hearth
stiff salmon
#

but i feel like iizuka (if there is season pass 2) would want to do demon slayer bc they already had practice with the doom zone from shadow hens

#

and infinity castle can be lap 2

wide portal
#

I will say it is interesting how this pass is compromised mainly of companies they’ve already done crossovers/collabs with

#

Minecraft stuff was recent, Sonic’s vibed with Mega Man and PAC-MAN before and of course there’s SEGA’s corporate relationship with Paramount

#

they probably had a very clear picture of what was going into the pass from day one

silent haven
#

(sega when i ask them if inagumi korone is in crossworlds)

stiff salmon
#

it'll be tanjiro and someone else

prime hearth
#

I literally know nowt about demon slayer so I take it thats the kid in the green checkerboard robe right

dense snow
#

wait has korone done anything to promote crossworlds yet? or no?

stiff salmon
#

yes

prime hearth
#

it'll be him and the lass with a pipe in her mouth

stiff salmon
#

how tf they making a kid drive

humble drum
#

ROLL UP THE WINDOWS IT'S MEGA MAN

verbal tundra
#

ROLL DOWN THE WINDOWS AND PICK HIM UP

grand cobalt
#

they made the toddler rabbit and bee drive I don’t think kids are that much of an issue 😭

humble drum
#

ROLL
MEGA MAN

wide portal
dawn pumice
#

If they want my money tho

#

Put the main quad in

rugged edge
#

So uhh T

#

What about among us

#

Like I care for it

dawn pumice
#

If we ever get a season pass 2

#

I’m really surprised with no DC tho

rugged edge
#

FOR REAL

#

I feel like DC is going to be skins tho

#

Would be cool if it wasn’t

scarlet ether
#

this over Mega Man

cunning echo
#

MEGAMAN

grand cobalt
#

i wonder what happened

rugged otter
#

i fw this wayyy more than with SF being in

#

give the little dude something, been ages since his last game

leaden acorn
#

So what would be the second character for Mega Man? Roll? Protoman? Bass? Dr. Wily?

still epoch
#

Please be Zero

#

Either Zero or Roll

leaden acorn
#

If its a rep for the whole series, def. Zero (X version) but it might stick to the OG.

rugged otter
#

scrolled up and i'm disappointed in any of you shaking your head a this, for this you must complete Mega Man 2.

stiff salmon
#

i feel like they'll add his designs as skins

rugged otter
#

Bass would be cool,I like the design

#

would kinda suck if it was proto

sick bobcat
#

With Megaman being the final paid DLC and Steve, Joker, and Pac-Man in the game, Crossworlds is turning into Smash Kart.

wise chasm
#

It's gonna be Yellow Devil actually

leaden acorn
#

Oh wait, we're also getting a Race Track too with Mega Man. That's def. Dr. Wily's Castle.

rugged otter
#

If they do a Pass 2, I would be ultra cool with a Touhou rep

prime hearth
#

Wily would be fun but I dunno if it’d be him

hasty plume
#

I would say
bass, wily, or protoman

prime hearth
#

(Stage is 100% a wily castle tho)

hasty plume
#

wily for basic antagonist
bass for antagonist but cool
protoman if they aren't doing the antagonist

leaden acorn
#

If it's Bass, then both their cars would be based on their dogs.

prime hearth
#

I think we’re getting extreme gear for him instead of a car

hasty plume
#

either way its rush

#

rush jet or rush car from battle and chase

prime hearth
#

like, easiest shoo-in

leaden acorn
#

Victory Music would be the stage clear.

rugged otter
#

extreme gear, or otherwise

thorn harness

#

There we go

“mega man’s parts can be customized with extreme gear parts” what the fuck that’s metal as hell

grand cobalt
#

oh i did not read that WHAT

verbal tundra
#

WHATTTTT

#

OH MY GOD THATS SICK

tawny talon
#

Hold up

rugged otter
#

if this is true it sounds pretty ambitious

#

don't think any of the DLC really has anything under the hood to this extent?

tawny talon
#

This was part of the huge leak back in June?!

rugged otter
#

closest I could think of was the avatar course having "Bending" but that got scrapped

dawn pumice
#

Holy shit

#

That’s actually dope

rugged otter
#

and you were calling him a bum smh

dawn pumice
#

Still a bum tho

rugged otter
#

wtf

stiff salmon
#

WAIT

rugged otter
#

capcom should collab for another collab
of another blue character that also happens to be a bit spikey...

stiff salmon
#

IT WAS APART OF THE SPONGEBOB LEAK??

dawn pumice
#

Na no shot

#

We legit couldn’t have missed this

stiff salmon
#

no shot there was an oversight

still epoch
#

No way what

silent haven
#

surely not

tawny talon
#

There is no way that SpongeBob distracted us so hard that we didn’t notice Mega Man

#

That would be hilarious and sad at the same time

I need a 2nd season pass

chat which cup should I skip

coarse ferry

Because variety

👍

silent haven
#

zero or proto seems likely but it'd be weird to not have anything star force with the collection coming out

stiff salmon
#

it will be star force

#

got a feeling

coarse ferry
#

I doubt

#

They always go with classic megaman or zero

leaden acorn
#

I would love Starforce. Best designed MegaMan.

prime hearth
#

I think it'll be classic megs for recognisability but they'll have some star force in there to promote the game

#

most likely music if I had to bet

#

(plus all the car decals and whatnot)

NAH I'M SORRY, this shit is funny af LMAO

This makes me hope we get a end of season pass update that adds guest characters into the rival system and have dialogue.

It's so much more specific than "who would have guessed"

The timing of this sale lines up nicely with the impending Sonic Racing reveal.

QRT: MegaMan

#

couldn't it just be another thing from that friendship mode or whatever

#

that one gave you beep boop skin when you had enough tickets to give

dusty osprey
#

I dont think they would tie multiple costumes to that

prime hearth
#

I'm fully expecting it to be a placeholder thing that only results in like

free santa hat dlc at christmas like they did with the last few games lol

dusty osprey
#

Sega spoke on wanting to integrate season passes and microtransactions more. They have for the sonic cast a whole backlog of costumed assets

#

Litterally years of costumes from mobile games

#

This isnt even to mention any collaborative shit they may want to do in future

grand cobalt
#

honestly

dusty osprey
#

They're a buisness at the end the day

prime hearth
grand cobalt
#

im a believer that they'll make people get skins by signing up for shit ass sega accounts

dusty osprey
#

And if they can sell costumes to you over and over. I think they will. They already have

grand cobalt
#

like how the blue star is locked behind a sign up lmao

dusty osprey
#

They sell you the same costumes in different mobile games

verbal tundra
#

not tellin u which one

#

itll hit u like a flashbang

dusty osprey

Its megaman zero 3

verbal tundra
#

SHHHHH

modest parcel
#

I think most of the skins included in the base game will be free, but cost tickets like the friendship skins

#

Because of one simple thing

humble drum
modest parcel
#

It's a game design strategy to keep people playing for as long as possible

humble drum
modest parcel
#

And that is more valuable than just

coarse ferry
#

It's honestly needed for a multiplayer game

modest parcel
#

Offering a microtransaction skin

humble drum
modest parcel
#

This is something that Fortnite understands with its battle pass stuff, but as we've seen with Crossworlds, they're already taking advantage of battle pass esque retention techniques for free

#

Hell, there could be more skins offered via festivals

#

Since free gadgets are unlocked there as well

#

Alongside stickers, titles, and special effects

humble drum

dusty osprey

And tbh naive

modest parcel
#

Mmmmm I don't think so

dusty osprey
#

You can keep people playing with paid skins, and people despite how i feel about it like paid skin updates

dusty osprey
#

Especially ones made by sega

modest parcel
#

Im gonna jump

dusty osprey
#

Sega got a whole mmo that sell you outfits ever other week

safe hull
#

People paid upwards $90 to play the game, if you then ask them to pay for fucking skins, they'd rather skin the devs alive

dusty osprey
#

Sega has mobile games of sonic that resell you skins in other mobile games

modest parcel
#

Except Dream Team

untold kayak
#

the difference is that those games are free downloads

modest parcel
#

Wonder why that is

dusty osprey
#

Yeah that thing no one can play

this is a $70 game

safe hull
#

There is a difference between FREE TO PLAY GAME
Vs a full AAA priced game

dusty osprey
dusty osprey
#

Alao yakuza

#

Also technically x gens

#

Because it had preorder skins

#

Yall forget the industry this is, and this a billion dollar corperation

safe hull
#

That they then gave out

dusty osprey
#

But that doesnt negate persona and yakuza

safe hull
#

They didn't trick you wtf

dusty osprey
#

Its for share holders

humble drum
#

not like you need to pre order anyway cause those "day one editions" last for like a month

verbal tundra
#

they tricked me into preordering LAD8 cuz the demo was fun (good game btw)

safe hull
#

they still offer the bonuses if you don't preorfer

dusty osprey
#

Its coercion to get you to buy a thing more expensive early for stocks

#

Sega is not your friend

modest parcel
#

That's the way they've usually handled skins, but now it's for entire characters instead

safe hull
#

Wow I never knew the company isn't my close buddy i get drinks with and kiss when nobody's looking

dusty osprey
#

I mean i guess you can kiss the sega office
It would be gross and kinda cold though

#

People would look at you funny

#

But you could technically do it

dusty osprey

If the games good at they aint expensive, people will shell out 3 bucks

#

It's not ignorant, it's an actual dynamic that developers like Sonic Rumble devs have to consider in their internal planning of how to best engage with player's investment and, in turn, wallets

#

The only problem there is that Rumble did end up going down the road of prioritizing the way that the rest of the industry operates, and it's suffering for it much in the same way as all the other games that try the same

cunning echo
dusty osprey
#

So the issue with this

  1. the devs arent making those choices alot of the time.
  2. you are assuming failure is gonna stop the people actively making those choices to stop and historically thats not true
cunning echo
#

so the coffee we had yesterday

#

was for nothing?

#

💔

#

Bro I cant believe this

dusty osprey
#

Also 3) sega has seen sucess

#

Who cares about sonic rumble. They other successful ventures

modest parcel
#

So far the most success they've seen is Speed Simulator on that front, which also balances free content to paid microtransactions (and gambling!!! now)

#

And the mobile Sonic games that have free character updates

dusty osprey
#

That sells costumes every other week

#

Im playing one rn

#

Its called metaphor

pulsar horizon

dusty osprey

#

The most

dusty osprey
#

Thats probably pso2

#

Because that game has been out for years

modest parcel
#

Comparatively Sonic Runners exists as a game that went much further in the microtransaction direction of forcing players to pay for their content drops, even if it technically allowed for free pulls if you were insanely lucky

#

But it died

#

Comparatively the Sonic ventures in this department have to reckon with the fact that players WILL drop their game if they don't have enough incentive to return outside of paying a microtransaction to unlock a skin

modest parcel
#

Runners wasn't a good game?

dusty osprey
#

No

modest parcel
#

It's much better than the dash games

#

So much better

dusty osprey
#

Those mobile games are ass

#

They are not worth the time and effort and i kinda fw forces. But its a time waster at best

#

Me and sgm be in here complaining about pso2 but the game is fun despite its flaws

modest parcel
#

I don't know what goes on in the PSO realm

#

Fighting games are also similar where most people will end up buying DLC chars, more than other genres

#

You can't "I play other games" stuff like this when the context changes from series to series

lunar trench
dusty osprey
#

Like what we doin

modest parcel
#

Even the biggest gatchas rely on the fact that a lot of people view them as

"Oh well I don't have to pay for them if I put enough time into them"

This is the dynamic village, game designers understand this

Whelp, time for SEGA to give Megaman more love than Capcom or Inafune will give to him

PSO2's way of handling longetivity is nowhere even close over what Crossworld's is even going to do

It's just apples and oranges

So where did that money come from

dusty osprey
modest parcel
lunar trench
#

What i like about runners too is that... well it's a mobile game, not a giant open world or a gacha in which i could invest thousands, it's just a simple mobile game i can play in the bus or while just waiting it, i don't need to build that character or that character. It's just a chill game and that's why it's effective

Remember, gambling mechanics

That works for Genshin, but it doesn't for Runners

#

They want the character they like in the game they like

lunar trench
dusty osprey
#

This is built into the philosophy of hoyo btw

#

They make games like they make billions

#

Thats their whole thing

#

And you think its purely desperation?

#

No people want to pay

#

The reason that those mobile games failed was because no one wanted to pay for that shit. But crossworlds is good and problably get away with charging you for some skins. People may want to pay

grand cobalt
wide portal
#

how can i make this about Jenny Nicholson

dusty osprey
coarse ferry
#

Yes

dusty osprey
#

How

#

Whats the difference

#

Because at the end the day the transaction is built on both parties wanting to play dress up

coarse ferry
#

PSO2 is a f2p game, where the money is strictly around fashions and AC code. And it's heavily reliant on microtransation
Crossworld is a paid game with actual proper DLC chars that people will have to pay even more

dusty osprey
#

Sonic fans have shown a desire for this

coarse ferry
#

Again no actual similarities

dusty osprey
#

So persona and yakuza then

#

Im playing an atlus game with paid costumes right now

modest parcel
#

Wait

#

Village is a persona fan

dusty osprey
#

Yeah

#

I guess im more of an atlus fan atp

modest parcel
#

I don't have to come back to this argument with a full breakdown it's just him saying "this sure is reminding me a lot of persona right now"

modest parcel
dusty osprey
#

It actually reminds me of fighting games tbh. Or like br's

#

I play sf6 which is currently changing the output of free currency because they are about to make/sell costumes fasters and they want to push you to pay for them

#

It stinks but they did it in sf5 too

#

And sf5 costumes did so well it unsunk that game

#

Chun li's thighs are valuable

Village

#

It would lineup with the Aang movie

dusty osprey
# modest parcel Yes they want to pay, never said otherwise

I think to frame it as purely desperation is disingenuous. Yes the genre is built on coercion. I would be a liar to deny this. So me state that plainly.

But the reason people paying is that they like the game. And alot of people whejnrolling arent really desperate especially because many companies who make these games mostly make their money on whales.

For many its a pretty casual experience they can drop.

That said, i dont think its simular to that situation. You are rolling. You are paying presumably 3-5 bucks for a skin. I dont think thats crazy enough to drive people off its unfortunately the norm
