Its time to move on

evrfighter4725d ago

looks like he didn't like what they had planned for the witcher.

This confirms with me that where they want to take the witcher is not in the best interest of pc gaming.

hats off to him for stickin to his guns. chalk up another victim to consolization

Yea man, I was thinking the same thing.

I wish him the best and hope CDP doesn't end up to be another bioware. That would be a damn shame.

BeastlyRig4725d ago (Edited 4725d ago )

wow! I liked Gop! Hope he does good in whatever he is doing next!

I hope this won't effect the witcher 3 since he had a big role in making it..

He was always very cool at various online Witcher presentations

MP games need micros to keep the lights on. Path of Exile is a good game with micros. It can be done as long is the game is not the scheme itself.

CrimsonWing6958d ago (Edited 58d ago )

You end up paying more than $70 in micros for a game specifically designed around them and that’s not a “scheme” by design?

I’ve played plenty of great MP games that didn’t have micros. I love how at one point we were like micros bad, GaaS bad, and now we’re like, well GaaS is MP so it’s ok.

anast57d ago (Edited 57d ago )

Path is a free game. How else are they supposed to keep the servers on? You don't need up spending more . I've been playing the game since the beginning and I've spent less than $20.

Destiny on the other hand....

An MP game embedded in a SP game shouldn't have them.

I know you understand this. I have to be optimistic here.

@anast

I’d argue “free to play” are more egregious than just a traditional pay to play game. You end up spending far more on a game than just $70 and I think the “free” games are sneaky by design to make a consumer think “well, it’s free, let me dump money into it.” I mean, they’re specifically designed to make you continuously put money into them. I heard with Path of Exile you hit a point where the grind is obnoxious without buying micros.

Odd, I remember micro transactions for Witcher 3

CrimsonWing6957d ago

What micro-transactions do you remember being in Witcher 3?

FinalFantasyFanatic57d ago

I agree, I never pay for microtransactions, and in the few cases where I have, I've felt dirty afterwards, especially when older games used to give you so much content for free (like cosmetics).
