I mean, come on, they don’t even give you enough currency from the pass to buy the next one. Rocket League does it, CoD does it, Red Dead Redemption did it and neither those companies suffered damage to their bottom line.

But no, ActiGreed cannot show any kind of goodwill towards their players

    I dislike battlepasses in general. I have a lot of problems with them, but what they have inside of them usually isn’t super high on the list.

    I dislike the idea of them, but they can put whatever they want in them, imo.

    Buy them or don’t buy them. I’d advocate for not buying them …… ever …. Personally.

    The argument I usually get in favor of battlepasses is that they ‘find the continued development of the game’. Well, that’s bullshit for a paid game.

    But if that’s the argument, shouldn’t people be happy to buy them? I hear people wanting other people to buy them so the game gets new ‘content’ (another arguable term) regularly, but I’m also hearing that people want to buy one and then get all of them forever for free.

    If you’re getting the battlepass for free how does that now fund the continued development of the game?

    None of it makes any logical sense to me
