EA's Skate reportedly has microtransactions added-in before it's out in early access, seemingly because its alpha test is also aiming to get feedback on buying stuff

      They’d probably charge you for it

        At least for once you’d actually be getting something from paying EA for a service

    It’s a free to play game, is anyone really surprised they intend to add microtransactions?

    I recommend reading the source rather than blog spam: https://insider-gaming.com/ea-adds-microtransactions-to-skates-closed-alpha/

    Electronic Arts games have mtx. Full stop. Expecting anything else is delusional. Sure, it’s a great day when, in modern times, they release a game without any. But, you know, hell freezing over first and all that.

    edit: and even without mtx, I’m not sure they make games anymore that even remotely interest me, probably, I haven’t checked in a while. Last I checked was ME2, iirc.

    I’m absolutely sure this is going to suck. What a way to wreck a legendary franchise. These games were sooo good too. Shame on EA
