Again, nothing against Blizzard or Overwatch. That's just what a lot of games are like these days.

 

[Black Wizard]

Microtransactions are running rampant in gaming, unfortunately.

 

[Dojo]

yeah, but tbf

 

[Dojo]

the micros in overwatch are basically non-existent

 

[Dojo]

and even if you did use money to buy a loot box, all you do is unlock cosmetic shit

 

[DylanTM]

I'm imagining Pokemon with Micros 0.0

 

[DylanTM]

Ah, so it's kinda like Loadout? It's not pay to win, you just pay for stuff that changes the look on your character?

 

[Black Wizard]

I dunno how they are in Overwatch. Oh just cosmetic stuff? Good. That's the way to do it, don't lock characters or other big important gameplay features behind purchases.

 

[Dojo]

yeah it's basically just cosmetic stuff

 

[Dojo]

or like different emotes for characters

 

[Dojo]

or your little in-game avatar

 

[DylanTM]

Fair enough.

 

[DylanTM]

Hopefully they get the prices a lot better than Loadout.

 

[Dojo]

they recently released a whole new character for the price of free

 

[Dojo]

and all future updates are free as well, i'm pretty sure
