You might be laughing but imagine being a raijuu normalfag sportsfag this is nothing to them.

>digital
What's their excuse for that price tag?

>150 eurodollars for a digital release

I'm getting real tired of the autists that inhabit this board.

you get a lot of ingame currency iirc

They know the sportsfag demographic is dumb enough to fall for this bullshit from past experience.

what is your fucking point?

Its the game plus a bunch of virtual currency for player packs if its anything like FIFA. You buy packs and then open them to get players for your team. This shit is insanely profitable

You mean every demographic is daft enough to fall for this. This is the same as skins in games, lootboxes and mobile trash.

This shit should be considered illegal gambling.

It should be. Unfortunately they're exploiting obvious loopholes that won't make it illegal. That is, until some senator's son loses daddy a million dollars.

its not about the console, its about the fact that retards spend 150 euro on basically a carbon copy for the same thing they bought last year.

Does that include the SD card you'll need to store it on? Because that's an additional $50 or so

Millions of people will pay for this, they will make ludicrous amount of money, and it will be the new industry standard.

>paying money for the possibility of getting something good
Can I assume this practice comes from smartphone "games", those Japanese gacha?

>This shit is insanely profitable

Why
How

I fucking hate people

>NBA 2K18
>NBA 2K18 - Legend Edition
>NBA 2K18 - Legend Edition Gold
LEGEND EDITION GOLD !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
FUCKING KEK!

Don't blame gacha entirely for this. It's the same concept behind loot boxes as well.

Cause you gotta build your teams up and people want the best players. Just so happens the best players are the rarest drops. You don't wanna be caught without a few golds on your team in Fifa Ultimate Team/ NBA Ultimate Team do you user?

The point is that this thread is going to be yet another "it's okay when Nintendo does it" thread

At this point, I'm waiting for the inevitable Platinum and Super Platinum editions that cost $500 and $1,000 respectively.

So it's basically a mobile game, but that even costs money as first purchase?

Jesus fuck, they actually managed to out-jew the gacha system.

what do you get with the super platinum?
not saying im buying im just curious

No worse than buying booster packs for tcg...that's not gambling.

I feel sick, its amazing that there are still videogames that arent gambling simulators
I hate these subhumans, I hate popular things and normalfags
Fuck it all

>Battlefield PCMR reddit approved
>not the same thing
Stop it now.

Yeah. You get the sports game but a big part of the online is the create a team. You can grind matches to get the points to unlock these drops. But it takes a while to get enough for a bronze or silver drop never mind a gold drop
More points for ultimate team.

It is.

Let retards spend their money on whatever they want. People question why I spend $200 on dolls and I say fuck em
I like creaming then with muh dick

It's OK when Sony or Microsoft does it.

NBA 2K isn't about Ultimate Team, that's an EA thing.

2K virtual currency is mostly about upgrades to your My Player

wow that actually seems like a really good deal
let me just ask my mom for her card

i mean i get 1,000,000 coin for only $1,000
wow i'm actually making money on this deal if you think about it

How? Except for buying the base game, it's not really different.

1 Guaranteed SUPER ULTRA RARE player drop, 3 Guaranteed ULTRA RARE player drop, 5 Guaranteed RARE player drop, custom clothing skin with 'AUTHENTIC' digital signature from a pro player, or some shit like that.

>pay real money for a small chance of getting whatever
why are online casinos allowed?

see

Because some people honestly have a lot of money to dump and for some reason they find joy in dumping into digital items. I think it's mostly an addiction at this point.

Honestly though, this isn't as bad as the insane amount of money people spend on mobile games. I used to do support for Google Play. I could see peoples purchase history. I would constantly talk to people who would spend thousands, monthly, on mobile game purchases. Just buying basically boxes of random item drops.

>lootboxes
Heeeeere we go

>Gambling is the wagering of money or something of value (referred to as "the stakes") on an event with an uncertain outcome with the primary intent of winning money or material goods. Gambling thus requires three elements be present: consideration, chance and prize.[1] The outcome of the wager is often immediate, such as a single roll of dice, a spin of a roulette wheel, or a horse crossing the finish line, but longer time frames are also common, allowing wagers on the outcome of a future sports contest or even an entire sports season.

Still doesn't explain the difference between opening a pack for Fifa or Magic the Gathering.

There is none. MTG fits that description of gambling.

One is physical, the other is digital. Both are gambling.

>see my little brother asking for money all the time to buy digital booster packs & lootboxes for games like overwatch/plants vs zombies/fifa/rocket league/fortnite

Good thing nobody listens to him
I swear those games are designed to create future gambling addicts

>its price is the same across all platforms
>blames nintendo
Holy fuck how does someone achieve this level of retardation???

>no "NBA 2k18 Legend Edition Diamonds" for 249,99

>Why
>How
Niggers and youtubers.

your point?

Over 19 million dollars were spent just on Jeanne Alter's rate up, on the Chinese App Store.

this. you really cant fathom how much some people spend on this nonsense. go to any Brave Exvius group and just look at some of the shit they post. These people will spend literally thousands of dollars a week trying to get the new units. Even though the ones they got 2-3 months ago are far better.

Its an addiction and thats really all there is to it.

This talk of gambling and jewish practices has made me remember I used to buy pokemon card packs when I was a lad
Did I fall for the gambling jew, Sup Forums?

I was always happy no matter what cards I got.

my point is that the game is insanely overpriced

what is YOUR point?

The difference between buying boosters/player packs/loot boxes is that you are GUARANTEED a prize. It may not be the prize you want, but you are still guaranteed a prize. You will never open an empty booster, but you could very well crap out/get a shit hand/miss the spread and lose money. This technicality is how TCG companies have been operating for years

At least I have some physical collectible item with MtG, and given that most comic book shops and gaming stores sell individual cards I don't need to spend $60 plus several packs to make a viable MtG deck. Lootbox shit is just part of a game that you already paid full price for.

It's China. It's filled with people who ended up as overnight millionaires from the government pushing their economic development plans throughout their nation. They have an absurd amount of people with more money than sense. They have all this money and nothing to spend it on.

i play exvius, while there are certainly big spenders it's not common for everybody, most of the playerbase it's playing for free or for very small amount of money.
Then here and there yes, you will find some idiot who dumps 30-40 thousands dollars a year in that game
Anyhow i was looking at some graphs couple months ago, if i remember correctly the game is cashing in an average of 4-5 million dollars per month in in-app purchases

NO YOU ARE TRYING TO TALK SHIT ABOUT THE SWITCH YOU SONY SHITTER

I know it's that lootboxes is bullshit and I really hate them, but it works the same way as boosters packs and those are consider okay.

I play tcg and I know what you mean, but what EA and Wizard are doing is pretty much the same thing...but people seems to like to buy digital stuff...

Try stopping by the fate/go threads in /vg/
There are people who have spent literally thousands of dollars to roll for waifus and not get them. The rates are insanely bad. Even during a rate up the highest chance you have of getting a 5* you want is 0.7% per roll, and doing the math it costs about $2.20 per roll.

Also

I'll never understand this shit, especially considering FGO is a single player game

>Did I fall for the gambling jew, Sup Forums?

Trading card games are one of the longest running jews out there, so yes

Yes you did.
But cards at least give you some nice artwork and something you can sell off.

But I can choose to not buy MTG booster packs and instead just buy the individual cards I want, that's not gambling, that's simply purchasing an item. Lootboxes don't offer that alternative, you always have to gamble.

Who cares is nigger foodstamp money anyways, better than being spent on drugs.

it really isn't because you pay 60-70 bucks for the game alone and THEN you buy booster packs.
The comparison would be equal if you can only play the tgc with a shitty starter pack and some special item wich would be required to play the game (special dice or whatever and a playmap) for 60 bucks and on top of that you could buy booster packs.
But since I could start with a (lot) of booster packs in a tgc (mostly) and in FIFA etc I can't it isn't the same deal.

(I know the Ultimate Team nonsense isn't the complete game and all of the game what matters, but for most of the poeple who buy it yearly it is)

...

are you fucking retarded? that is my picture. my tv. my switch. holy shit, kill yourself, you idiot

>150€

G-Guys should i get this or 5 retail Atlus JRPGs for the 3DS on amazon?

I checked out the e-shop on my Switch to see it for myself, but then I saw PAN-PAN and thought it looked nice. It looks like a cute, little puzzle game composed by Simon Viklund (Pay Day 2). I might get it.

>F2P whaling ptractices are seeping into mainstream full priced videogames

EVERYTIME YOU THINK IT COULDN'T GET WORSE IT FUCKING DOES

JUST LIKE VALVE MAKING THAT CARD GAME

FUCK

I HATE THIS PLANET

Do you mean riajuu?

>Nintendo-only fags who are only used to Nintendo's greedy kike methods have their first exposure to SPORTSGAME greedy kike methods.
Wait until you see Early Access.

Who's that between Jack the Ripper and the two rate ups? How is it lower than Tesla?

all 6

It's Mordred. And that was before Apocrypha's anime.

What the hell? I was considering picking this up but no way am I spending £150 to play a fucking sports game lol.

>tfw got it for PS4 for $50

It's a good day to be a sonybro.

But you missed the Legend Gold edition.

What's your point? I don't need any extra digital bullshit. The base game is good enough.
