You mean an amiibo which can be collected is the same as a pixel red dot? LMAO

Cosmetic DLC is fine imo.

Sure..

exactly how I feel.

To me I hate original post like this because it is pretty much a "boy who cried wolf" scenario.

There are definitely games where the DLC policies are downright predatory. But I feel BO4 has done a good job on not being one. Ya, the DLC is overpriced, but so far none of it really helps you in any way. 

So while I would never buy it, I have no issue with it "existing". Some people will buy it. Cool. They love the game and want to spend extra on it. But they extra they spend has no effect on me on the other end. 

Call of Duty has crossed the line in the past. CoD4 remaster was the worst. 2 of 3 best guns in the game (IMO) were locked behind loot box mechanics. That to me is a no go. 

But to me this entire OP is just a copy cat crybaby trying to get attention. A reticule (which design ones typically are harder to use) is locked behind the DLC mechanic of BO4. Booo hooo. 

Good, so you are agreeing with me, heh

Sure..

The issue with Amiibo is that IIRC they sometimes put game content behind a physical paywall that was sometimes out of stock.

If it's just a figurine, sure, no issue. But putting game content in it is way more annoying than simple DLC. 

Anyway, Nintendo is also no stranger to disgusting DLCs. Fire Emblem Awakening DLCs were a nightmare: expensive, bad, and with game breaking mechanisms (unlimited XP and money, best objects of the game). Sure, "it wasn't an online game", but still, they're in no position to give lessons to anyone. 

It genuinely concerns me the amount of people that go lengths to defending these practices. There is no excuse for any of this.

Exactly! Hang on let me just display my red dot in my display case enxt to my amiibo. Oh wait I can't as its not a physical object! 

Yeah, agree, hehehe
