would you rather pay or grind for a character/item/ability?
>>724053112>opening your walletnot playing the game>grindingplaying the gameit's not that hard
>>724053112I would rather all game content be in the game at the time of release
>>724053184>opening your wallettakes like 2 hours>grinding>takes days of boring, monotonous gameplayit's not that hard
>>724053112Grind?What a dumb question
grind followed by a nerf the next patch is how I like it
>>724053280if you want to skip gameplay why are you even playing a game you hate?
singe player or online (competetive)? if the latter it's bullshit for both cases
I'm just not gonna play the MPslop
>>724053462>single player game that frequently introduces new characters you can either buy or grind 200 hours forThis does not exist
>>724053112Name two examples of needing to grind nothing for 200 hours to unlock a character
>>724053415the gameplay of grinding is NOT fun compared to others
>>724053112The fact that the character is "strong" just implies its mobile/gacha slop to begin with.
>>724053112both bad
Too bad the only two options are either paying up or a boring grind.Too bad devs are too creatively bankrupt they can't come up with some other solution.
>>724053559>dandy's world>rain world
>>724053541good
>>724053615>can't name any other options himself
>>724053112If playing the game for 200 hours isn't fun then you should stop playing.
>>724053112If you have to pay money to skip a grind in a video game, that game is shit and you should not play it.
>>724053112>Would you rather get pest and cholera?How about neither? Just give them to me for advancing enough in the story line.
>>724053569Then don't fucking play it.Are you retarded?
>>724053112give me the 200 hours o' funfun grind bro
>>724053112you should play games to get more powerful in them
>>724053569How do you have an escapism when you treat everything like a job?
>>724053943Ok, but "fun" is a big factor in that.
>>724053993exactly
>>724053112>New character>Freely availableftfy
>>724053112At this point, pay. I work two jobs, live with a woman and get very little sleep so gaming has become a luxury instead of a hobby, I imagine it just gets worse once you're a parent. I can afford to drop 20 dollars on instant dopamine from time to time, I can't find the time to drop 20 hours grinding in a game for something because it would probably take me a couple months.
>>724054414Then it takes time, wow. At least you have fun doing so.If you spend your money on something that makes you immediately super strong, then what's the point of even playing it?
>>724054518I'm not advocating for p2w, I'm thinking more along the lines of the Battlefield 4 starter kits or Helldivers 2 super credits. I get to see more of the game quicker, which is more important for my life at the moment when I only get an hour or two if any time at all for vidya
>>724053616>both dogshityep
>>724054760Elaborate
>>724053112I want to play video games. I'm not a loser that needs his "win" for the day and pays for the best in slots and being the best simply by swiping. I literally want to hop on and play the damn video game by grinding for things to unlock.
>>724053112neither.if theres either, I don't play.
>>724053112>game so bad that you'd rather pay money than play it>still playLegit mental illness.
>>724054997The rest is fun
Depends on what the grind is. If it's similar to Bloons Tower Defence 6 where you unlock those grindy towers by doing what you're doing to begin with then it's fine.
>literally describes P2W on the left>Hah! But as you can see, the Wojak on the left has red eyes and anger veins and shit so the F2P claim is untrue!commit rope
>>724055919The other one is just as bad.
Neither.
>>724053112Neither. Make your progression fun and rewarding without making it grindy or paywalled or gtfo.
