Story Characters and Looks. I count three irrelevant metrics. What is the fourth? Have you not found Factorio yet or have you downloaded the pirated version with added microtransactions? ๐
I meant 4 and 5, but yeah agree with looks as well actually. Really the most important is that the gameplay is fun, and I find microtransactions significantly reduce how fun a game is to me.
I often return to playing ESO and the ingame shop is the main cause of me quitting again. Never bought anything in it, repeatedly seeing "buy this for premium money!" and after a while I just want it to fuck off and uninstall again.
I don't understand the pirated thing
It was just a little joke about how sometimes pirated games contain viruses and malware and microtransactions are basically viruses with how toxic they are.
