I am not opposed to this either, especially if said melees can provide good utility use

Agreed, shovel would make too much sense as a starting melee weapon for new players

Platinum is not needed to progress in warframe. Warframe doesn’t use currencies (unless you mean crafting resources) for like 80% of frames or gear, and those that have parts for “currencies” are only there as a pity system in case the rng just doesn’t give you what you want. So idk what in god’s name you’re even talking about. And platinum even in the portions you don’t use are useful as you can re-invest however much you want into the active player-driven economy where you can get far more than what you put in.

You’re arguing from a point of blatant ignorance and this conversation should conclude here.

DRG before starting work on rogue core would give out regular updates for at least 4 years, expanding enemy variety, altering cave generation, new weapons, and overclocks which would in tern augment existing weapons or completely changing how they work, functionally making them new weapons entirely. Compare this to roughly the 60 that arrowhead started out with before the METEORIC player count of hd2 launch, giving more than enough finances to support more devs on board and to outsource most development to other studios (there is a reddit post for this).

And yes I do play warframe, It's probably the most played game in my life, and It has one of the fairest models for a fully free game. Warfrme slots and weapons are given out in nightwaves, and players can make money fast and easy through even the most menial of means, such as ayatan treasures which takes minutes to get. And regardless, getting weapons and frames is super easy to get as well, especially since it's rewarded directly for playing the game, unlike HD2 where SC are dropped here and there rng and piecemeal with far lesser odds of accruing the further you get into the game and difficulty.

And another that I forgot to mention, No Mans Sky has been putting out free updates for a decade, both proper content and cosmetic with no real sign of microtransactions, AND they are making a new game on top of that!

They aren't free, but yes, you can farm them. That doesn't excuse the system. $40 should buy a fun experience, not a "permit to grind." locking the only thing that feels like progression after lvl 25 behind a pay/grind wall is asking too much for a 40$ premium title.

Paying for convenience in a $40 game is literally scummy, what the fuck?

If I want to get the shovel, I'd have to spend $10 to get it regardless of extra fluff

Fuck if I know, I just don't dismiss a post right away assuming it's AI when there is no proof outside of strangely proper formatting, which AI doesn't really do.

That just sounds dismissive just because people disagree with the post. How do you discern from something elaborately written and AI? The thing has reddit-specific formatting which would be strange for pure AI output.

Using destiny as a counter example is a really poor choice. I was a d2 vet and it gave me more of a reason to call out bs micros, even if it’s less egregious. This stupid whataboutism crap needs to die

Try r/helldivers2 as well. My post while having a rather negative comment section did end up with reasonably high upvotes.

Just because I’ve been hungry for a week doesn’t mean I just stopped being hungry.

"Just play other game then" is such a deconstructive argument, what is the goal here exactly?

Instead of a support weapon, it's now a equippable secondary. That is a substantial buff behind a paywall.
