Idk if this is more controversial or unpopular because I'm not that into gaming but;
I hate loot boxes. I feel like so many games are becoming pay to win now days, which is why put a speedy halt on my attempt to get back into it. Like I'm not rich enough to be a gamer girl. From what I hear; loot boxes give some players unfair advantages over other players. I just want to play the damn game and relax. Like I remember playing on my PS2. I buy the one disc and that's it, that's the whole game. You put it in and earn content as you level up. Now you have to pay like at least $30 for the game and you don't even get all of the content. You have to buy certain skins and locations??? If I pay over $40 for a game I don't want to play with people who are gonna beat me by their ability to drop cash for cool armor and shit.
I can be totally wrong here since I'm not a gamer, but this is what people are making it sound like.
Similarly; I remember PC gaming on Windows XP; you buy the disc, pop it into whichever computer, and it works on all of them so long as you have one legal copy. Now a legal copy will only get one computer working and you need to buy all of these expansion packs for the full experience? I remember when you only had to buy one disc to have the whole game.
TlDr; Old gaming > Modern gaming

I agree old gaming > modern gaming. I প্রণয় both but old gaming is definitely better দ্বারা far.

While I don't necessarily hate loot boxes, as long as they don't effect the gameplay (kinda like Overwatch). I do agree about having to pay in order to win, that's not how video games work.

Got it. Yeah I'm not much into the gaming community so I wouldn't know lol. Personally I think that the newer stuff is just too complex for someone who has been out of it for a while and hasn't had time to adjust to the changes. I liked the simplicity of the older games.

That is quite a জনপ্রিয় opinion indeed. When it comes to Old Gaming vs Modern Gaming, I can agree that things used to be much আরো simple before. I experienced the ''Pay to Win'' situation quite a lot in the past which is a main reason why I don't bother with Online Games. Actually, it is pretty rare that I play on the PC. I'm আরো of a Console Gamer. In the end, it really depends on the Company behind a Franchise. Fortunately, I don't have a problem like that when it comes to my selections in Gaming so I won't support ENTIRELY the claim that the Old was superior. I find both equal !!!!
