    How to fix this terrible industry for 2019: 1) Never buy anything from Activision, EA, Konami, Ubisoft, nor Warner Bros (if there is any other publisher you don’t like, add them to this list). Any game from them now will have ruined potential and will always be badly designed on purpose to sell microtransactions, lootboxes, and cheat codes. Create the stigma that anything with these publisher’s name on it is a lesser product because it’s true. If you absolutely NEED to have one of their games but still want to get it legally, wait about a year until the game is on sale with included DLC or (preferably) buy a used copy. 2) Never pre-order any game. Waiting until the game comes out to give them money will force them to make sure it’s a functioning, bug-free (as possible), complete game. 3) Wait until said publishers are downscaled/bankrupt from lack of sales. Even if they change their ways after suffering financial struggles, they’ll just go back to their current agenda once they’re back on top again. Let them burn in bankruptcy. They never cared about you. Don’t give them the satisfaction. 4) Wait until they’re forced to sell IPs and franchises to better publishers in order to cut costs from going under. Developers let go from this should also be given employment opportunities from said publishers. This is, unfortunately, the only drawback to this plan as there’s no telling what will happen to said franchises and developers. 5) Spread. This. Message. Feel free to copy/paste this comment anywhere it’s relevant! Anyone who says “this won’t work” is doing EXACTLY what these publishers want. The moment you give up and think uniting against exploitative and terrible business practices is fruitless is the moment you lose. The squeaky wheel gets the grease. This has worked before and it will work again

    The gaming industry is on the brink of a total crash, which will be on a much larger scale than the 1983 or the 1991 crashes in terms of sheer amount of loss in money and jobs. Studios will be closed or bought-out, and no risks would ever be taken for a couple of years. A complete re-evaluation will then ensue of what gaming as an entertainment medium, an art form and a commercial industry means and should be followed for a full revitalization. It is time for indies to shine through all the regurgurated garbage of AAA studios and publishers.

    Look at Horizon Zero Dawn for PS4. They released the game for the base price of $60, with no other versions of the game. And the base game has a beautiful long story and a lot of content. Then months later they released the first DLC Expansion, and no season pass. Then months after that they released the 2nd and last DLC expansion. But when they released the 2nd, the last DLC, at the same time they released a complete edition if the game that includes the base game and all DLC's, for $40 ( I think, it may of been sold for $50, cant remember). But a brand new game that just dropped its last DLC was sold for much much less then any other AAA game at its base state. AND Horizon Zero Dawn has ZERO micro-transactions! None, not a single one, and can be played completly offline, and the complete edition included ALL of the DLC on the Disc! No need to download most of it from the internet. lol. Thats why Guerilla Games is up at the top of my favorite game studios.

    The era of microtransactions never existed until smart phones and their games introduced them. Kids don't understand that microtransactions used to not exist and that the things they now pay for used to come from either full DLC packs or free updates. They also don't understand that buying this crap just perpetuates this obvious cash grab culture. If you want it to stop, STOP BUYING IN. Complaining usually does nothing.

    ​ Danny D I stopped at MW3 so I don't play and please correct me if i am wrong but after a quick google/forum search, you can pray to rnjesus to sometimes get a pitiful amount at the end of a game or grinding daily/weekly challenges. Why I am upset buy this is because in the original black ops you had mostly the whole unlock system using an in game currency that you earned for almost everything you did. On top of the passive earning you could do challenges/wager matches to earn more than normal. I simply do not see the need to make a more exclusive grindy currency to lock not just stupid skins but also stuff like the reticles other than an attempt to get more money out of impulsive people and see how far they can go.

    The problem isnt that ACTIVI$ION is selling a Dot for $1 (or EA’s lootboxes, Bethesda’s Creation Club...or any of the MT-Controversies). The problem is people are buying it. Game companies could do a micro transaction for literally *nothing* and people would buy it because it has a company name attached to it. I’ve been gaming since the old days of the Amiga 64. I remember when you’d pay half as much and get a *full* game. Companies never seemed to release ‘broken games’ because they relied on their reputation to sell the next games.

    You know, I HATE microtransactions. As a indie game developer myself, I think it's a distraction from the "art" of games, because such companies eventually make these choices -- and their future design chouces -- based off stakeholders and investors rather than the consumers -- the "experts" -- of their art/entertainment. For this reason, I've warned parents about Battlefront 2, Destiny 2, and other EA games while I worked at Best Buy for the holidays; I've ranted about loot boxes to my game development peers; and I've eshewed almost all phone games. During this most recent Christmas, my brothers -- who aren't as cognizant as me on game industry practices -- wanted to play Destiny 2 with me. I got a free version anyway and wanted to see how Bungie improved the story from Destiny 1. I played it, and the main campaign was noticeably better than D1. Then I bought the ultimate expansion pack (all 3) for 50 bucks. The expansions' campaigns have much more science-fiction influence (as opposed to space fantasy) and were fun to play and see the improvements from the Main Campaign to Expansion III. Beyond the expansions, I haven't spent anything on microtransactions, but they're very cosmetic and yet I feel satisfied that my character looks the coolest (at least to me). Plus, the gunplay is deep and, of course, the aesthetic is PROFOUND. Guys, Destiny 2 is a GREAT game, and FANTASTIC with a friend or family member. I regret not playing D2 until now. (Sorry if my writing sounds like a salesman. I'm just really enthusiastic about my experience so far) Then again, I'm an open-minded guy and change my mind easily when new information presents itself (you have to be flexible as an indie developer, I think, for you get a variety of valuable feedback from the consumers). So, one-minded players may not have the same experience.

    @@devilmayclarify666 well, yea, the thing about microtransactions, I hate if it locks progressive content needed like story or guns. But if its purely cosmetic, I dont have a problem with it because it has no legit impact on me, its just something I could get to look 'cooler'. People talking about the bo4 microtransactions and fo76 microtransactions like the game is forcing them to buy it, or the game is shutting them out completely from getting the content. But as both games show, you can get the cosmetic items as you play the game and grind, something people might not want to do so they take it out on other people who have. this is just my opinion, good day :)

    PUBG is actually doing the same thing: anyone can progress through Season Pass' levels, but those, who didn't pay for it (witch is almost the whole price of the game to pay) gonna get like 1/20 of the rewards and due to a limitation in missions' rewards they may get to like level 50 (out of 100) by the end of the season *IF* they grind like crazy everyday, because let me tell you Blue Hole added some weird and very specific daily missions, that basically suggest you genocide and loot like every person out of 100 for a ridiculously small amount of exp points. Even people who purchased the Pass are not gonna make it to lvl 100 if they play casually, like a few games every evening, so they *CONVENIENTLY* add level-up coupons to the shop that are not all that cheep either. Also, how about selling the coupon for character's name change for the price of the whole Season Pass, even tho you could get it for free on like lvl 25 on the previous season even without buying the Pass..... And all of this considering the game itself is NOT free to play.

    From my shallow perspective, it looks like investors are the root of all the issues here. Like they have the companies (developers, mainly) that might do great stuff by the balls unless they do this ridiculous stuff to keep afloat. Disgusting, greedy people with absolutely no care in the product or the people who buy them. They just want money, with expectations of it making much more money. If this is true, it really sucks that these investors stay out of the limelight while they use the companies they screw over as the scapegoat. Then again, I guess it also takes a greedy company to accept these investors in the first place...

    Mobile gaming has ruined it. These companies are selling us free to play for 60 bucks. That and the suckers who keep buying the same game every year thats nothing more than a mod of the same game.

    The entire triple A gaming industry is mired in corruption and greed these days, whilst publishers like EA are the worst lets point fingers directly at Bethesda who really started the entire greed in the industry, sooner or later - the entire gaming community as an entire united whole need to fight back against the industry - youtubers bringing news stories like this is fine, its not enough to make the industry thing twice.

    I love Black Ops 4, it is literally one of the best games this year in terms of execution. They built one of the, if not THE, best FPS battle royalle game types. They made the regular multiplayer incredibly fun and one of their best yet in terms of balance, map design, player movement, etc. They added incredible new game modes too. All of this has sparked new life into the already booming competitive scene with the CWL Vegas even getting record views on all streaming platforms. People hate so much on CoD and Fortnite but there is a reason they are loved by the vast majority of gamers, not everyone's cup of tea and I get that and the companies are very business orientated but behind that veil of greed, they make AMAZING games.
