I guess I will have to stick to Kickstarter titles, and the occasional Early Access AAA release. One Overwatch PS4 player bought $5k worth of Loot boxes in one month. Majority of Console players will happily pay money if they get cool rewards or become powerful. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not trying to refute your main point but giving example of one person and then generalizing for majority is not logical. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ALPHA17 Posted October 31, 2017 Report Share Posted October 31, 2017 ^ Yeah! I am sure that it is only PlayStation 4 folks hoovering up the micro-transactions, XBox fans go broke after buying the world's most powerful console. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No wonder Blizzard made $3.1 billion from Overwatch loot boxes alone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Loot boxes business is making crazy money for Blizzard and many top Publishers. And it's same on Xbox. Halo 5 sold less copies than Halo 3 but made way more money overall through microtransactions. Adity It's definitely over billion if not exact 3billion. Edited October 31, 2017 by WhiteWolf Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PS Fan Posted October 31, 2017 Report Share Posted October 31, 2017 Tlou 2 will definitely have MTs. And that super expensive Kojima game with bunch of Hollywood celebrities will also have MTs. Sony is spending crazy money on that game and MTs are best way to recover cost. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PS Fan Posted October 31, 2017 Report Share Posted October 31, 2017 (edited) http://fraghero.com/wont-believe-much-money-activision-made-1-year-microtransactions-alone/ So, Its from combined sales of ingame content across all Activision Blizzard games in 2016 not just Overwatch. ok Still it's crazy and every publisher wants to make Activision level of profit.

Sach4life Posted October 31, 2017 Report Share Posted October 31, 2017 Not saying that. I just find it surprising that so many people buy them. We are living in a generation of retards, it seems. Calling everyone who buys MTs retards is a retarded thing on its own. Sent from my SM-G930F using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shadoken Posted October 31, 2017 Report Share Posted October 31, 2017 Lol why are you guys bringing console wars sh*t into this now? And For the record , most of this whole concept was started and proven to be viable on PC/Mobile before consoles. So dont be pointing fingers that way.

sobbii Posted October 31, 2017 Report Share Posted October 31, 2017 No, it isn't. I know for a fact that I'm not a retard. People who buy MTs are retards.
