Paying too much for a game not worth it

Limto

M4Y4D3R3 They desperately need to up the Nemo buck rates, every update I’m always broke on Nemo bucks because the cookie rates are so high. Pretty much the only way to get the new skins that aren’t paid with cookies, is with money.

Limto Someone on the discord said that where they live they have to work for almost a week to afford the justice skins. Sure, PA needs money, but 40 dollars for a couple of Nemo bucks is absurd. The instant I bought the add on every last one of my Nemo bucks evaporated in front of my eyes because 5 days later the BiB (back in black) event came out. I agree, Nemo bucks rates need to be upped tremendously.

M4Y4D3R3 I've mentioned this exact issue in the past during the Halloween eggs, and no response. Not a thank you, just no response. They seem intent on keeping the Nemo Bucks low. Why? So you give up and pay for them, in a paid game. Before, I didn't understand the problem with this because I thought the game was free (I had it on game pass and I wasn't even the one who downloaded it) but when I found out it was paid I immediately understood the issue. Why does a paid game have microtransactions? Why not just charge more for the game? Why not release the game on more platforms to reach a wider audience? Why choose the literal worst possible route when these other options exist? .

M4Y4D3R3 every game that's no F2P requires subscription to live services on both consoles tho. Idk how many games from game pass u play but what u can do is ... Make a new account every month and only spend £1 for game pass. Then just login to that account and switch to yours.

HabaBaba I have a feeling making a new account every month is

Going to get cluttered within a year.
Time consuming.
And 3. Too much hassle to just play a single game.

HabaBaba then I’d have to buy party animals and every other game I own on those separate accounts, and most things like pc don’t even have transactions like those. steam doesn’t charge micropayments, wegame (as far as I know) doesn’t either.

Cartrimino it takes me 5 to make a new email and new account on Xbox. Since I only use game pass to play games I already bought and game pass is not worth anymore, cuz most games on it are old or just bad. I'm okay with doing this and not being forced to spend £7 just to play online.

HabaBaba

M4Y4D3R3 no, u only use that new account to buy game pass for new players. Then u login to both accounts and switch to your main.
I've been doing this for months now. I used to get game pass ultimate for £1 for 14 days before. That's £2 a month instead of £11.

Coughing in bed since last week, air purifier on full blast. I am horribly irritable right now.
It's been over a week, 120% sure the twitch skins have left the shop.
Fishing event is almost over and I'm not even at hermit hoot yet.
Seriously, if this problem persists for 5 days longer xbox series S/X players can say bye bye to party animals.. Microsoft is either straight up ignoring the devs or they just said "lol no" and walked away. One thing is for sure is that it's raining hell outside and PA clearly has no information they want to share. I have been staring at the exact same skins in the shop for a week and a half praying to the microsoft gods they make a compromise or something and every single day nothing has happened. THE GAMEPASS PRICE WENT TO 30/MO, 360/Y. I COULD BUY A NEW MONITOR WITH THAT MUCH MONEY OH MY GOD. only thing that's keeping me going is my cat. she is my life and soul and cares less about money and microtransactions and all that fancy stuff and loves me more.
Microsoft, take enjoyment as the new bane of my existence, right next to elon musk.

M4Y4D3R3 Yeah, the twitch skins have left the shop already.

HabaBaba

M4Y4D3R3 u can still fish and it ends in 18 days. Plenty of time to get all the skins from the event.

M4Y4D3R3

offtopic but are you supposed to put essential oils in air purifiers or not
like does that make you sicker

Cartrimino

M4Y4D3R3 only ones that are specifically designed. That's all I know.

I don't think it's advisable, vaping has been associated with lung injuries and they use essential oils that accumulate in the lungs.

No creo que sea recomendable, se ha asociado el uso del vaper con lesiones pulmonares y es que estos usan aceites esenciales que se acumulan en los pulmones

Cirno my day just got 5 times worse. why two days??

Limto

Cirno They left?!!!😭😭😭😭😭

Cirno

M4Y4D3R3

Limto

Sadly, I don’t understand why they made it only like three days.

M4Y4D3R3

and they released it knowing full well xbox couldn't get to it either.

M4Y4D3R3

Cirno People complain about "rarity" 24/7 and make every event shorter so it's less likely for others to get it

Cirno

M4Y4D3R3 Honestly, I think all skins should be permanent. At least it would give players more time to get skins, especially skins that cost Nemo bucks. I’m pretty sure many players would disagree.

M4Y4D3R3

Cirno The item shop would scream in pain at your suggestion. I thought it was bad 2 weeks ago when all the justice, greek gods, moonlight and returning skins were all in the item shop at the same time but that would be insanity

Cirno

M4Y4D3R3 True, looking for skins would be a pain.
