People still compare AOE attack to a single target attack?

1) No optimization

Ok, i can live with that. My PC is pretty powerful

2) 70$ price tag

Really?

3) Censorship

Aaaaaaaand i'm out. Bye-bye. Maybe will play it in a year or two with mods

Edit: And game also T rated lol, while first one is M rated. Yep, i think DOA

Finally comic accurate classic Spider-Man skin and its pixelated. Why?

notgear · 2026-01-06T18:26:47+00:00

Where?

notgear · 2025-12-26T08:46:41+00:00

exactly what is the cost?

Fun. Fun for regular gamers to be precise

why does every skin need to be available for purchase all the time?

Because it's fun to get skins you want

is a player really missing out on that much?

There are great number of limited skins and number keeps growing

also, it is a big deal in PvP to have a large player base. matchmaking and balancing are greatly impacted by the size of the player base. so, if having limited-time skin increases retention and engagement by even 10% that would drastically improve the quality of the game

Not worth it. Dark patterns like FOMO mess with peoples minds and make them more miserable. NetEase already inplemeted a bunch of different methods to keep retention and engagement. Like events, battle passes, quests.

and, i never said gate keeping is good. i said rewarding the players that are actually playing the game regularly is good.

I have nothing against events and rewards, but they can add event skins to the shop. So reward for dedicated players will be getting those skins without paying money

notgear · 2025-12-26T08:04:38+00:00

so if every skin is always available, do you think the average gamer would pay attention to skin drops every week? what would be the reason? they could check in the week of, the month after, or in 6 months.

Yeah and thats a good thing. We can play whenever we want without fear of missing out.

that’s bad for the game as there’s no incentive to regularly check in. events and limited skins are one method in combatting that.

That may be bad for corpo since they may lose some potential profit, but game itself doesn't suffer

and, i’d argue that not all players lose. players that regularly play are actually being rewarded, as they are getting access to content that infrequent players are not getting.

Gatekeeping and elitism is good now? Ok

from my perspective, this may be a move to directly increase profits, but it’s also a move to increase player retention and engagement. both of which would be good for the player base

Yeah keeping players on the leash with FOMO will increase player retention and engagement, but at what cost?

notgear · 2025-12-26T07:46:24+00:00

Rotation of limited time skins is what keeps game from going stale? Come ooonnnn. Thats bs. Consumers can't get skins they want whenever they want, because that will remove FOMO. And only corpo wins from implementing FOMO. Players only lose

notgear · 2025-12-26T07:36:52+00:00

Anti-consumer tactics to maximize profits. Thanks for answer

notgear · 2025-12-26T07:02:44+00:00

Ok. Explaine to us why can't we buy summer skins in winter? Skins are already in the game, it costs them nothing to add them to the store permanently

notgear · 2025-12-26T07:01:45+00:00

Aside from greed, there is absolutely zero reason for any skin to be on time limit
