Glad you can admit you weren't trying to apply any context. Also, your comparisons are all very convoluted and mostly stupid. To make it simple for you, someone mentioned publishers purposely chopping up games and putting them on GamePass to sell people expansions. I asked why MS would allow that to happen. You chimed in with three games that neither a) were chopped up, or b) have paid expansions being sold to gamers. The only game you listed that even has an expansion is Gears 5 and guess what? It was free for GamePass users. Kind of hard to chop a game up and sell us expansions when only one of the games has an expansion and it's free.
I don't care about whatever dumb argument you were having with others. You stated something factually false, and I corrected you.

You are confusing grinding for the items in Gears 5 for paying for them with actual money. How much would it cost to buy every skin outright? |
The same amount of money it could cost you to buy every Amiibo and Amiibo card: $0.
You just scan your friends Amiibo credit card, silly :) Cute. I already rebutted your idiotic "My friend can buy it for me therefore its' free" argument. You have no idea what Amiibos cost to make, or how much Gears skins cost to make, or how much of either content make up the total content. Also I love how you are admitting here that Splatoon users only get 95% of the game unless they dive into Amiibo hunting. Sounds like an incomplete game to me. Congrats, you're one of us! Actually I do. We've had that discussion before in a thread where you got your ass kicked. You can figure out how much content makes up the total content by doing a little math. I linked to the wiki showing all the shirts in Splatoon 2. There's about the same amount of shoes and pants in the game as shirts. Any experienced Splatoon player already knows this.

Another strawman. I said it isn't locked behind buying anything. You removed the word "buying" from the sentence in order to build yourself another strawman. |
You keep using that word. I don't think you know what that word means. Strawman: To misrepresent or distort someone's argument to make it easier to attack.
You distorted my argument by taking out the word "buying" in order to make it look like I said that cosmetics weren't locked behind anything at all. You then went on to attack that position instead, of what I actually said. Woah so you're saying a game released in 2020 has content locked behind cards that were discontinued prior to 2017. Sounds like another incomplete game. Wowzers! All of that content can be gotten in game. It isn't locked behind anything.
Still waiting on you to show how you have to pay for Pocket Camp stuff. The page I linked to clearly shows that it's free. But I guess you'll just conveniently ignore that just like how you've ignored all of the things you've been factually wrong about. Cerebralbore101 said:
I didn't spend $30 for content. I spent $30 for plastic toys to go on my shelf. Hell, one of them was bought all the way back in 2015 with the OG Splatoon. I also have four Metroid Amiibos. Guess what? I haven't even scanned them despite owning them for two years now. I just bought them because I wanted some cool Metroid related plastic statues. |
Imagine shitting on people for enjoying a game because you think it's incomplete when you yourself are spending money on Amiibo toys to unlock content in games. Hilarious. Imagine being proven factually wrong time, and time again, yet having the audacity to act as if your opponent didn't just prove you wrong. Hilarious. Cool, so then you also agree that no one should give a crap about your silly hypothetical. Except my hypothetical plays out exactly the same if you just replace Gamepass with two or more subscription services. It's funny that you didn't want to deal with my argument showing how it's definitely possible for most people to transition to streaming services. I listed multiple points in the history of the industry where things drastically changed. But I guess you don't know anything about history do you? Lol, I bet you don't even own a non-Xbox system. And if you do, you let it gather dust, instead of giving any other platform a fair shake. Cerebralbore101 said:
My mistake. Could you clarify by what you meant by "you are clueless when it comes to how GaaS type games work"? |
No thanks, you seem allergic to reason. You seem so scared of GaaS that you will literally jump through hoops to make excuses for the live service games you play while you simultaneously degrade others for playing live service games you aren't into. You're boring, I'm done.
The problem here is that you've never played Splatoon 2 or Animal Crossing. So you have absolutely no idea how those games work. Trying to compare the teeny tiny amount of extra Amiibo content in either of those games to other live service games is laughable. You might as well try to compare a Newt to Godzilla. "You're such a hypocrite! You have a pet Newt! Why can't I have a pet Godzilla?" See how stupid that sounds? That's you.
