86 on Metacritic after 27 reviews so far. Looks good! Looking forward to it.
Microtransactions are BS, but the actual game still looks amazing. Only complaints I see are the microtransactions themselves and that it's one hell of a grind if you want the alternate ending unless you pay up (which, don't get me wrong, sucks ass).

Find something better to do
>hurrdurr everybody who likes a game I don't like is a shill
>$60 for demo game
>$100 for full game
>Must pay at least $20 in "micro"transactions to be able to beat the game.
I can't wait until I can just steal this so I don't have to deal with all that bullshit.
>$60 for demo game
Wrong, it's the full game.
>100 for full game
optional DLC
>Must pay at least $20 in "micro"transactions to be able to beat the game.
Nope, it's just for the bonus ending, and even then you don't have to. You can grind.
i've never really been a pirate and thought the first one sucked dick but this is insane and i hope you pirate it 10 times to cost them 10 sales
Another AMAZING game by Warner bros. entertainment let's hope they keep up the good work continuing forward!
Fuck off shill.
I loved the first one and would love to pay $60 to buy the full version of this one. But fuck them. The $60 version is basically the "trial" version that is missing 4 "chapters", and each chapter costs $10 extra that you have to buy all at once.
And then you can't even beat the game unless you pay more money. It's like the people who love video games made this, and then people who were too old to even play an Atari came up with all the marketing.
FUCK MICROTRANSACTIONS ON $100 GAMES YOU FUCKING FAGS.
>people think this is ok for the multiplayer
>pay 2 win multiplayer that’s not unlike Clash of Clans
>developers open day to your face that the game isn’t even worth playing if you just give up some coin
>a literal personification of the WarnerBros Jew orc in the Store that rubs his hands and everything.
Thank god this series never got to me with the first game despite loving LOTR and wishing for a proper game that’s as ambitious as Fellowship of the ring but not utterly shit.
>gameplay from 2012
>graphics from 2010
>microtransactions in single player game
no thanks.
I just want a fun game
>Wrong, it's the full game.
Except it isn't you fuckhead.
>optional DLC
It isn't DLC when the game isn't even out yet and if you shill out $40 extra you get it on release day
>just for the bonus ending
In other words, you can't actually beat the game unless you pay an extra twenty bucks.
Fuck paying $120 for a game that is pretending to be a $60 game.
>Except it isn't you fuckhead.
Yes it is. Just because you sperg out and feel entitled to bonus content does not mean that the base game is any less full.
>In other words, you can't actually beat the game unless you pay an extra twenty bucks.
No. Even Polygon said that you can grind it out. They did say that it might take a while, but we know the facts when the game is out wether it's true or if they exaggerate.
remember when optional DLC and bonus endings were great easter eggs you found on your own? Now we got 14 year olds who think this kind of shit is normal on a single player game
BUH BUH DEVS NEED TO MAKE MONEY. So make a great game
I'm renting it, and I'll youtube whatever the "true ending" that will probably suck ass anyway.
So whatever.
Even if it's good I'm not buying it because fuck loot crates and fuck balancing the game around the player paying extra.
>optional DLC
Well if you want to be a dick about it, the $60 game is optional too. And you don't have to worry about micro-transactions or grinding at all in that case.
Well this comes out on my birthday and I was gonna pick it up. The microtransaction shit seems fucked, but apparently everything they can get you, you can grind out in game, so as long as I don't have to spend more on it, I'll pick it up.
So apparently the end game loot is clash of clans style base raiding? That sounds like appalling garbage if true. MGSV tried it too and it was shit there.
That sort of game has two key issues:
-The attacker will always win because they are a player.
-If you play long enough to get to the 'higher end' of the player base, you'll just see the exact same set up over and over and over again. The point is to make the challenges more diverse, but player metagaming makes that not the case at all.
I'm planning on picking it up before it drops, and then not touching it until I watch a bunch of reviews. Then if it's worth the extra price, I'll play it.
If not, I'll refund it on steam.
wait what why buy it in the first place then?
Why even purchase it if you're just going to wait for reviews? If you have that mindset, why not just wait to see what people say then pick it up on sale?
What is this 'buying the special ending' bullshit?
It was weird playing MGSV at release because you could see the entire process of turning a game's focus towards pushing micro-transactions happen with each update. And it most definitely had an impact on the single-player campaign.
Probably to get the pre-order bonus and the 15% discount, if I had to warrant a guess
Because I played the first game and quite enjoyed it
See above, plus you get some extra stuff I guess.
There's not going to be a sale for a long time for a game like that.
Basically, yeah.
Is there any online component worth bothering about? Otherwise I'll just pirate it
You get a fortress to garrison and other players get to attack copies of it. It's like MGSV's FOBs without the resource losses or opportunity to join in the defense personally, from what I understand.
well it's nothing
why do people do this
it isnt good
issue was never the game
it was other bs
Also I'm kind of going back and forth between choosing not to buy it and just getting it so I'll probably just get something else instead and wait for it to be cheaper.
I'm in the same boat. I really liked the first game (fuck you cunts, whatever) - but there's no fucking way I'm getting Jewed for this piece of shit. I'll wait 6 months for the definitive edition at half the fucking price.
Fucking Jews. It's always the fucking Jews.
Its the definition of a average forgetfull by the numbers "open" world game with every single system in the game being average. hey just like the last one
>defending free to play style microtransactions and loot boxes a $60+ games
Western gaming needs another crash.
Yes.
But there are nothing to play.
