How can you get the Fringed Loafers in Splatoon 2 without paying for a worthless toy?

Also idc if you never explicitly said Grounded has paid MTX or expansions, you replied about it in the context of that conversation. If I am asking why MS would allow publishers to release incomplete games on their service so that they can nickel and dime consumers, why else would you reply pointing to SoT or Gears or Grounded?

While you’re thinking on that, explain to me how a game like Grounded, marketed and released as early access for free, is comparable to a publisher purposely chopping a game up so they can sell it to us piece by piece. Because now you’re admitting it has no paid expansions, so it’s inclusion is bizarre.

You asked why MS would allow publishers to release incomplete games. I pointed out that SoT, Gears 5, and Grounded were all released incomplete. If MS releases it's own games as incomplete you can bet that it will let publishers do the same.

Lol I never said Grounded had any paid expansions or MTX, and I never said it was comparable to a publisher purposefully chopping up a game to sell it piece by piece. Keep punching that strawman.

Why don't you engage with what I actually said, instead of what your bias infested brain wants to hear? I said that if Gamepass takes over the industry, then MTX and GaaS will be all that's left, because developers won't be able to make enough money off $10 a month in Gamepass revenue.

P.S. You can get fringed loafers in Splatoon 2 by scanning a friend's Amiibo. ;)

P.P.S. How long would it take for somebody to grind for all the skins in Gears 5? What percentage of Gears 5 cosmetics can be bought with real life money? What is the exchange ratio from Iron to Shrute Bucks to Dollars? You're so adamant that Gears 5 isn't a MTX infested joke, but refuse to answer these questions. Why not explain how MTX works in Gears 5? Lay out all the purchasable skins, and how much they cost in real world money.
