I didnt play much SoT during Season 1 despite buying the plunder pass because of real life issues and other games i was playing so i never got those rewards.
I bought a gym membership, but I didn't really go due to real life stuff. Should I still get all those sick gains? If you can't be bothered to put in the time, you shouldn't get the rewards. I get it man sometimes life gets in the way, but you bought a membership (plunder pass) but didn't put in the effort to that comes with it.
To me it sets a bad gaming precedent to just throw money at stuff to get it. That has ripple effects on gaming as a whole, and that just makes games do that even more. Its a nay from me.
I dont see how a real life gym membership that exists to better your health that can be cancelled at any time and has no tangential reward is comparable to a video game.
Apex, Rocket League and many other games allow you to trade money for time. Obviously id want to play when i can and unlock items naturally but near the end of seasons sometimes its just better to buy the rest of the pass youre missing. Fall Guys doesnt let you buy tiers but near the end of their season theres double EXP since the grind gets absurd.
This attitude from SoT players is absolutely toxic for suggesting anything optional.
Since you want to get nitpick a perfectly valid comparison to justify your sense of entitlement, allow me to do the same you your critique.
-
In actuality most gym memberships are notoriously difficult to quit, so that point doesn't fly (much less has any relevance to the discussion at hand).
-
even if that was the case, you don't get refunds for partial months and most are sold in certain blocks of time such as year memberships.
-
the reward from the gym is improved health, strength, endurance, muscle shaping, etc.... and are more tangible than the digital items offered within the Plunder Pass.
His analogy boils down to your paid a membership price for a certain service that gives you benefits - health and fitness in the case of the Gym, access to Emporium items for the price of your Plunder Pass. Both require some sort of "work" to get the benefits, you don't put in the work then you done get the benefits...even if you "paid" for them. Nothing toxic about this so don't try that crud on me just because you don't like the answer.
But as said earlier, nearly all the items will be available in shops and the Emporium at some time in the future...but locked behind commendations or Ancient Coins now.
Finally, you had nearly a whole THREE MONTHS to put in probably about 20-30 hours (less if you worked hard at it, concentrating on specific tasks) in order to reach top level of the Pass. The "grind" for this Pass is pretty non-existent, in fact I feel they needed to make it more difficult as I reached level 100 in about a weeks time, without really trying at all. So no need to add such scummy "Pay2Win" tactics that the other games you pointed out use to bilk their player base.
