@ProjektInsanity There's a lot of bull in some of these F2P games trying to nickel and dime you around every corner. And then developers make design choices to force you to spend that money. Like one thing they do is they give you a billion items to collect and not nearly enough inventory. So either you don't collect them or you have to run to a vendor or the bank to unload them every 10 minutes (not fun). Or you pay for more inventory space. Okay, so you go look into purchasing more space and you find out it's going to cost you 500 Super Diamonds or whatever in-game currency they're using, which is the equivalent of say, $4. Except they won't sell you 500 Super Diamonds for $4, they will only sell 1500 for $12, etc. You want to change the look of your character? Back to the item shop and it's the same thing. Anyway, I just prefer to be billed up front than play a "game" that keeps trying to get me to reach for my wallet.
@red666devil ha yeah, when he said they're trying to appeal to the older turtle fans I was hoping that meant the fighting would include dismemberments and decapitations but I guess they're not going to take it there.
I've made poor gaming decisions due to peer pressure, including playing WoW long after it was any fun (and I wasn't even a raider). But it's not just MMOs, I went out and paid $60 for Modern Warfare 2 so I could play with a friend when I knew I wouldn't be into it. Sure enough, I wasted that money. I'm quite done with that now and I only play games by myself because it's much easier to quit or I play multiplayer games with little time investment required. So I'm avoiding Dota 2 (and all the other MOBAs) too.
Begging Rockstar to bring GTA5 to PC? I don't think so. Especially not after the bad port that was GTA4. Then there's this mystery about if and when they'll do it, with Rockstar generally acting like they don't want the PC gamer's business. They can keep it a console exclusive as far as I'm concerned. There are too many developers that are serious about the PC platform for me to put up with Rockstar's bullshit.
