Ultimate Deluxe Super Mega Game Edition!

2016, almost 2017, and it's to the point where I can't feel sorry for consumers anymore when it comes to video games and the purchases of said games.

So, I was thinking about buying some games tonight. I don't know, I usually don't play half the games I buy more than a few hours once I find out it's just more fake-Hollywood, linear bullshit but sometimes the stories can be good. 

After seeing Rogue One, I became slightly interested in Star Wars again. I saw an ad for a Rogue One addition to Star Wars Battlefront and thought I might purchase it. I'm not much of an FPS person but they can be fun every now and then.

So upon my search,  I was scrolling through EA Origins and noticed this:



Yes that's right.

Three different editions for the game: "Standard", "Deluxe", and "Ultimate".


Each version has more than it's predecessor. I laughed about it at first and said to my girlfriend, "What's next? Super Ultimate Deluxe Edition?"

Hahaha. HAHAHAHAHAHAHA.

Wait. Wait. You know what? Maybe I'll check out that new Mass Effect game I...


So as it turns out: I wasn't that far off with my jest.

The jest of course being of how ridiculous and anti-consumerist these publishers could be.

I don't put any type of money grubbing scheme past these publishers now.


I am more amazed by the amount of people that continuously support these publishers though. 

We are now at the point where there is DLC on release. DLC literally being nothing more than content which was ripped from the final product, chopped up into pieces and sold in parts later. Of course, the developers and publishers like to deny this but they are in fact lying to you. 

We have "Season Passes" as well. Probably the worst of all the scumbag tactics these publishers have come up with. They literally sell you DLC garbage so that you don't pay for future DLC garbage they will release. Oh, but you don't know how much of the DLC garbage you will actually get because most, or all, season passes don't include ALL OF THE DLC GARBAGE. SURPRISE!

You know what I do now though? I skip any game that has DLC, more than one edition excluding GotY, and any other cheap money grubbing tactics. 

Most of these game are short and not even worth the price they are asking for. They want us to pay more for these games based on the "quality" but they surely don't reduce the prices to that merit.

WoW Legion: Nail In Coffin For WoW Community Gone Full Retard

World of Warcraft gets worse every expansion.

You know what's clear?


Blizzard staff is filled with 50 year asshole nerds that think they are better than their community and are CLEARLY out of touch with what "fun" is and void of just any type of coherent course for World of Warcraft.  And they don't give a fuck. As long as you buy their shitty services that go against almost everything a MMO is supposed to be.


At this point, Blizzard is just doing whatever the fuck they want. They released garbage like WoD which showed their COMPLETE lack of morals and
Years after years we have seen the same shit from Blizzard:

"NERF, BUFF, NERF, BUFF!" 
"Hey! Lots of players enjoy these features. Let's change it because they are having fun."
"Let's fucking dumb this game down more because it wasn't easy enough."

I mean, there is a paladin talent that LITERALLY automatically activates Divine Shield for you now.  

They pretty much stripped WoW of anything that requires a brain because they think you are all too stupid to figure it out. 

Which is partially true.

The WoW community is worse than ever. It seems like the more they dumb down the game, the more the community acts like spoiled children that kick and scream when they don't get what they want.

You go to Reddit WoW and it's literally a bunch of players that think they are "above" the WoW general forums when they are just as bad as general. I guess the difference is that there is more negativity on the WoW forums and more dick sucking on WoW reddit.

Then there are people like this idiot:


 Now. You notice how he seemed like he was complaining about the fact they added absurd prices to the game but then basically went, "Yeah I'M GOING TO BUY THIS SHIT!" and switched to a supportive stance. Fuck this guy. 

Which brings up another community point. Blizzard is obviously at the point where they realize most of us are going to complain but still subscribe because we probably have no other games to play.

(Also funny that many of these "Elite WoW players", were complete shit in Vanilla but became "pro" when Blizzard dumbed the game down.)

Hell, I re-subbed to this shit to because my friend kept telling me to come back. I first started off having fun in WoD then soon found that you sit in your FUCKING GARRISON the whole expansion. They only had 2 FUCKING PATCHES and ADDED MORE GARRISON SHIT. 

And what's the community excuse to defend this garbage developer? 

"WOW still duh best mmo on dah marketz!"
"IT GONNA GET BETTA IN LEGION I SWEARZ!"


Blizzard doesn't give a fuck and they have not a shred of integrity or decency left. They are just in it to milk their players now. I ASSURE you that Subs are going to tank left and right about a month or two into Legion. Blizzard won't report it but you will notice it through their release of more MARKET shit and services as they try to keep the cash flowing in.

Hell. Blizzard is such a shit developer now I would fully expect them to SHUT WOW DOWN if they see it's popularity decline to the point that is obvious.

Their whole goal now is money and making the game "fair" because there are too many little bitches playing it that want everything without any effort. No longer a real community.

Blizzard completely destroyed World of Warcraft. Legion will be the end of it. That I assure you.

And don't expect any of these assholes Youtubers and Streamers that are promoted and make their money off of WoW to be honest.

I mean...go play Classic WoW and then this new pre-patch Legion WOW. GO. DO IT.

God I hope Star Citizen comes soon.

Q1 2015. Blizzard Loses 2.9 Million Subscribers. 7 Million Idiots Still Giving Blizzard Money.

For those of you that play WoW, don't care what Blizzard does or what direction the game goes in; this is not for you. Continue enjoying your game! Take your hippy Blizzard love somewhere else.

Those of you that continue to give Blizzard money even though you know that they are continuously fucking you over, post on the forums for years about how Blizzard has "lost their way" and don't give a shit about WoW as a game; come right in.

Let's start with the basics.

Blizzard lost the most subscribers they have ever lost in a three month period because WoD is the piece of shit it OBVIOUSLY was from the start:


This is what Blizzard said upon releasing their report to investors:

Blizzard Entertainment had the largest Q1 online player community in its history, up a double digit percentage year over year despite no major launches in the quarter. As expected and consistent with our experience following prior expansions, we saw a decline in the World of Warcraft subscriber number. Subscribers ended the quarter at 7.1 million. World of Warcraft’s revenue performance at constant FX has been more stable, driven by continued strong uptake on value added services, and price increases in select regions, which partially offset subscriber declines, particularly in the East. World of Warcraft remains the No. 1 subscription-based MMORPG in the world.

You know what the text highlighted in red means despite them trying to cover it up with bullshit language (I mean seriously, "strong uptake on value added services?")? 


It means that they don't give a shit about subscribers as long as they have enough players that will give them money for shit like character transfers, WoW tokens, pets, level 90 boost and all the other you players claim isn't "pay to win" (and WoW is P2W now no matter how hard you assholes try to morph the definition of it).

They don't give a shit about making a good game. They do however care about new ways they can stay longer (releasing expansions constantly for example) and making you pay for pay-wall content.

I mean Blizzard said in plain FUCKING ENGLISH :

"SERVICES OFFSET SUBSCRIBER DECLINES"

That means, stop bitching if you are still PAYING TO PLAY WoW. You aren't helping by giving them money and praying that Blizzard sees the error of their ways.

You have morons now saying that Blizzard needs to release another expansion to FIX the expansion they they currently don't give a shit about....hahaha....

You people are stupid as fuck....ahhhh...

Not if you enjoy the game though!

Something grammar fix later yada yada.
