without threatening games studios or requiring that capitalism collapses first, what are methods you would use to fix these dumb multiplayer games
because unfortunately i think these guys want skins and progression systems now bleayyeaakkck
i think we gotta trick em into thinking they’ve got skins. my idea is that you get to keep your skins but only until you die, and then it turns into a puff of greasy smoke and you go back to looking like your friend Leonard dressed in lazertag gear. make 'em spend in-game currencies that aren’t tied to real world dollars and i think we have essentially a Skins Methadone Clinic
what are your ideas on how we solve this disGUSTING state of multiplayer games
I don’t think you compete against gambling and constantly being X units from Y prize. You don’t make a good relationship by finding a way to make higher highs than an abusive relationship. You don’t stop drinking by having even crazier nights out with a different substance. It’s a hypnotic psychology-based money milking machine. I don’t think you win by fixing the box.
There are a lot of charmed games out there (a lot of them single player). When I think of good multiplayer, I think of limitless creativity. Your Warcraft 3, Minecraft, Mario Maker, Runescape. Give me a 3D Zelda dungeon maker and watch it print money.

I almost typed that message making my example games plural for exactly that game lol. It would have been “one of your minecrafts.” And yeah, calling a battle pass progression would have me yelling “MR BORELLI!” at you
