That’s called a dark pattern, which I don’t fall for all that often. I’d just take the F2P route, and I wouldn’t care if I missed out on something where I’d shell out real money for it.

I’m circumcised, but I can give the answer to if I wish I were uncircumcised. I would only want to choose circumcision if I looked into it and determined it to be good.
There’s someone whose name I forgot who called this out as being barbarism at Harvard or Columbia before getting kicked out for basically giving the truth on circumcision.
I wouldn’t mind taking a look into that, actually. I’ll have Neigsendoig do the same.
The review said it was likely to become P2W, and I thought it already was P2W. If it wasn’t yet, there could be plans for P2W, which was my gut feeling when I saw dark patterns in the game, which I recognized after looking into it a bit.
Does it have an offline single-player or offline anything? If it doesn’t, that’s live service, that’s not a game… it’d instead be a subscription-based shooter movie that you just so happened to be the protagonist of.
That’s because I called out certain ideological and ecclesiastical nonsense on a different account, and here on this new one, I don’t plan on calling it out as much as I used to.
You seem to be projecting what looks to be a defense for a game that’s rigged against newbies. I’ve taken a look into the game, and figured it out for myself from watching some gameplay. Yes, it’s fantastic once you get the hang of it, but there’s EOMM that you have to deal with too, which is tame to other unethical matchmaking methods like MTXBMM.
Take the content as slowly as possible, take notes, and apply it where applicable to see what you can learn from what’s applied. That’s what I was doing for a while, and it seems to pay off for me very well.
For me, that would be Protestant Historicism and practicing the Scriptures as was intended in the First Century (I have a 1599 GNV I like to use, but also YLT using Obsidian MD).
For an explanation on this matter, me calling out the actions of Catholic and Jesuit-aligned interests had really ticked off a lot of people on Lemmy (which got me classified as a troll, despite no proof of me being a troll, and being as civil and professional as I can be… though the latter I needed to work on). I know that many of the events happening 'round the world are because of one country’s iron grip: Italy’s.
Now, you may be asking “Sokio, why Italy?” That is where the Vatican stands, where it’s been controlled by the Jesuit Superior General (the top dog in the Jesuit Order) since 1798 when he pulled off what would be the 5th Vial of Revelation (the removal of the Popes of Rome from civil and ecclesiastical power). This ended a 1,260 year prophecy that was fulfilled from 538 (after the Dukedom of Rome was overthrown by the Popes) to 1798.
There’s a lot I can go into, but this is the context I wanted to provide as to why many absolutely hated what I had to say on Lemmy from this point of view I’ve held since early 2025.
From the No Pay To Win Coalition’s review on Steam:
“Overall: 2/5*
Not recommended!
Likely to become a P2W, due to it being a GaaS game.
Other issues:
A low-poly Battlefield copy. ”
If it isn’t P2W as of right now, it will be that way. This also has to do with old-school ownership, as you’re paying for a license that will be revoked any time the devs feel like it.
The game is P2W, so of course there would be cheaters. There was an anti-cheat used in EAC, but that was bypassable, especially nowadays.
I’d only play it if the game wasn’t P2W despite one having to pay for it. If P2W is removed, I’d consider it. Otherwise, don’t bet on me playing it anytime soon.

Neigsendoig (whom I edited videos for) and I had just conducted an experiment with some customization options at some certain levels due to significant numbers in cryptocurrency. For example, the Bitcoin rep for each car class (in this game, Exotic, Muscle, and Tuner) has 21% (signifying 21 million BTC) on the Autosculpt parameters for parts we chose, despite us using Extended Customization for some further control in what parts we chose.
This is the same with Monero at 51% (due to a 51% attack that happened to Monero in 2025) for each Autosculpt parameter for parts we chose, 20% (signifying ERC-20) for Ethereum (really, Ether), and just stock for Zano (think Tor routing of sorts for cryptocurrencies without privacy by default), with no Autosculpt.
We also utilized different color schemes representing each cryptocurrency as well to differentiate each car we decided for each class (4 per class). All of this will be edited by either myself or Sendo (if I do edit this, it’d be the first time I edited for that channel in about a year or so). We hadn’t decided upon that as of yet.
That’s what I’ve been doing as of late.
I just use a net to catch things. If you know what I’m talking about, you know darn well I’m not for either DRM.
Nobody who’s famous can date anyone normal. There are certain requirements for that to happen. One of them is for someone to be in the “club” we aren’t in.
Kushner and the Saudis, absolutely. Good chance I won’t be playing their newer games after I heard about that nonsense.
I don’t think that’ll be possible. I wouldn’t even buy BF6 because of Javelicrap (EA’s botnet akin to Activision’s Ricocrap), and why I’d want a rootkit on my system is beyond me (plus, Linux users are excluded from playing BF6 in the first place).
In Lemmy Today (the instance out of Oregon), I think what OP is talking about fits under Rule 1 (and that’s the same with .ml).
I could potentially see the issues, but I think the Lemmy Today guys thought of that. I think they recommend some mobile clients that could potentially mitigate that (or it could be something their VPS is doing that’s strange and that they’re already looking into).
I don’t do that anymore for fast food, but a local pizza chain called Bellagios is what I sometimes get (it’s rare when I do).
Back then, it used to be a local fast food chain called Burgerville, but their quality is horrible compared to what it used to be.
