How long till we start seeing microtransactions in movies...

New Star Wars game, basically if you were retarded enough to buy it:
>can't unlock characters like Luke Skywalker, Darth Vader and others without paying in-game currency
>takes about 40 hours to unlock one character
>"OR GOYIM YOU COULD PAY FOR THE CHARACTER IN OUR BRAND NEW LOOTBOXES OY VEY"
>people lost their shit
>EA responds by slightly reducing the price of characters
>still takes 10 hours to get one character
>people can just pay to level up, get better guns and win
they made
>every weapon
>every character
>every skill
pay to win (to an extent)
first time in a video game where it's done that
they toned it down in 2 days, but what they're really doing is forcing people to not rush the game to completion in the lowest amount of time possible
>The comment said that EA appreciated the "candid feedback" and the players' "passion", but said that it had made the decision to improve the experience.
>"The intent is to provide players with a sense of pride and accomplishment for unlocking different heroes," the comment read.
>"As for cost, we selected initial values based upon data from the Open Beta and other adjustments made to milestone rewards before launch. Among other things, we're looking at average per-player credit earn rates on a daily basis, and we'll be making constant adjustments to ensure that players have challenges that are compelling, rewarding, and of course attainable via gameplay.
>"We appreciate the candid feedback, and the passion the community has put forth around the current topics here on Reddit, our forums and across numerous social media outlets."
>It concluded with a message reading "Our team will continue to make changes and monitor community feedback and update everyone as soon and as often as we can".
