Star Wars Battlefront 2 Review – Born to Lose, Pay-to-Win - GameRevolution

harsh reviews are pouring in. The challenge was to manage fkin up solid gold like what the sw license is, and EA sucesfully achieved it. Hopefully the hate train keeps rolling and this business model bites em in the ass doing real dammage. I like where the ethical aspect of having kids gamble is going and hopefully a step to have this regulated.

In the end i nearly cavee because i do love sw so much, its part of my childhood like so many others, but guess what,

fuck you ea

I'm going to have a lot of free time during Thanksgiving week. Should I buy BF2 or Shadow of War?

south park is the best fall game imo i've played so far. Assassins Creed Origins seems pretty good but I think you really have to love the series to really love the game, not sure how rando people will take it. Of course Super Mario Odyssey is also fantastic but thats got the $299 switch tax

I was going to ask if it's worth Redboxing this for the campaign but this is from the article:

Also, you don't actually get to play the full campaign. EA has held back the last missions until the free The Last Jedi content pack releases on December 13.

So yeah wait until then at least.

Google translated news story. It looks like the Belgian Government has already started on investigation into the Gambling question. I think this Government intervention stuff will go further in the EU than in the US.

Here is the statement in full: "Creating a fair and fun game experience is of critical importance to EA. The crate mechanics of Star Wars Battlefront II are not gambling. A player’s ability to succeed in the game is not dependent on purchasing crates. Players can also earn crates through playing the game and not spending any money at all. Once obtained, players are always guaranteed to receive content that can be used in game."

Have some principles

I honestly don't care about any of this shit. I've never bought loot crates, probably never will.

95% of people are worse at video games than me anyway. It might be nice to have some opponents with a +20% advantage.

It'll make their tears all the more delicious when I know they've paid money to cry them.

Thanks for helping to ruin gaming and dooming the hobby to a cesspool of sequels-for-cash like Hollywood
