      People are just tired of the anti-consumer bullshit and it shows. I’m glad Larian are thinking ahead instead of grabbing the cash now and running unlike most modern day triple A developers.

      Really shows that they care for the games that they make and the audience they’ve amassed.

      Hopefully this helps kill MTX, lootboxes and Battlepasses.

        I hate MTX, lootboxes, and battle passes, but I cannot imagine that they’ll go away unless it’s to replace them with something even worse.

          Those “games” on Nintendo Switch that are just a license to access a cloud streaming version of the title is, in my opinion, a much worse issue than MTX.

          In fact, one of them was taken offline - the Switch is still active, which means there are people who paid full price for a singleplayer game and it no longer exists.

            Evil is evil. Greater, lesser, middling. If I had to choose I’d rather not choose at all.

        MTX is here to stay, the numbers speak for themselves. It’s unfortunate, but unless people stop buying them (they won’t) they aren’t going anywhere.

          At least we still have developers willing to go against the norm.

      Dragon Age Inquisition was already a giant pile of shit, why would anyone expect anything else from a studio that hasn’t released a decent game in over a decade?

        I actually loved Dragon Age Inquisition. Definitely more than Dragon Age 2 (though I liked all of them).
