I get where you are coming from ph!l and so do others so no need trying to explain it to a person of this nature.

Here lies the true problem with most of what I would call the "modern consumer". Not necessarily just being a hypocrite, but not having conviction to your own moral standards. You see it all the time across multiple genre's and somebody may disapprove of it in one game for some reason, but be OK with it in another (even talking about purchasing skins in some other game). However, there is also a line between "wanting to support a developer" and "paying for shortcuts/skips/power".

Edit: As I was typing this up I see Annihilator responded with the exact thing I just mentioned above. You already bought the game and potentially paid for DLC, you supported the developer through that. Any additional support would come in the affect of additional content (the car packs count), and anything that actually helps enhance the gaming experience. Paying to skip having to earn money is indeed a power up.
(we could get into why this is needed in the first place, but check my previous post if one cares).

This is why companies continue to do it and will continue to do so. The video of the ex-SC2 dev has been circling around a lot and is a short clip that gives a lot of insight into why gaming is the way it is now.

For those purchasing the tickets; you will continue to decrease the quality of future titles as a company will not turn down quicker money for less time/effort put into the product. (Look at all of the sports titles re-hashed every year. I buy one of those from a different sport in kind of a rotation once every 5 years or so, but even still, the next version I buy is almost exactly the same game as the one 5 years prior. These have other issues too such as monopolization of rights etc.) but i digress as there are plenty of examples that you could go on about.

And for the one fellow who replied talking about "the shareholders". Please stop regurgitating that statement you see online. This argument assumes you understand how shareholder meetings go and what even goes on. I can solve this attitude by asking you one question, "Is a company in control of a game(s) you enjoy: Are they making better games now or worse games?". If a game you chose belongs to one of the many AAA companies then I think there could be a fair argument that they are making worse quality games.

Anywho, I am not here to disapprove of anybody spending their money the way they want. Nobody is wrong for wanting to buy things in a game with your own money, but if so, you are objectively making it easier for developers/companies to spend less time on gameplay & design and more time on how to make paywalls an inherit part of the game.

Without support the update stopping is happen in so many games. The developer not make update for free. You payed the game but not the updates. Remember that.



Edit: Also the haters never admit is a hater ;) i talk in general :) specially because one guy remember it from long time one thread and i not talking with that but i talking with developer and other who got the issue and get this way.

I finally got the voucher pack I wanted while accessing the Steam Store *from within the game, in mid-play.* I was not able to simply select my mdse. go to cart, get a total, and PayPal buy it.

No, I had to put PayPal money into my Steam Wallet to cover the purchase. That didn't work out, as best as I could tell, the first time I tried it. It made no sense either.

I've never bought game DLC from within the game menu itself where the game maker wants to pull their money from your Steam Wallet, and not from PayPal. All the other Forza Horizon DLC is NOT SOLD THIS WAY. Why aren't these vouchers on their storefront?? ...with all the other DLC!

So what happened is that in this weird requirement to put money into my Steam Wallet first, and assuming that I'd pay for the P.G./Turn 10/MS DLC out of that wallet, I put twice the amount I needed to into the wallet. Why? The sale didn't seem to go through!!

The store link from P.G./Turn 10 to Steam is on the blink because it sucks up that $$$ silently from your Steam Wallet.

I bought the 3rd of 3 DLC vouchers (20) two times, rather automatically and unknowingly! by populating my Steam Wallet with $20, not once but twice.

The first $20 didn't result in a message that I had bought the 20 voucher pack.

I'll buy all DLC from this game company if it's on their storefront and selling in a NORMAL fashion from now on - no Steam Wallet filling ahead of time for the game company to deduct from. WTF.

Take PayPal like you do for every last other DLC [you] have ever sold, P.G!

I now have WAY too many car vouchers.....forty in all. I am $20 poorer than I thought I was agreeing to.

All games in steam work in this mode. First need a wallet on steam and late spent. If you not want it need buyng the game outside of steam.

This was not bought on the Steam storefront page but from WITHIN the game, during gameplay. That is not the primary way games sell DLC.

All of a game's DLC are sold on it's storefront - main page. This one - just this one - is not.

This is the ONLY ONE THAT IS NOT.

I have 70-something games and a @%&$-ton of DLC. I don't know where you are coming from with this. I need a better translation of your words.

I was sold 2X what I thought I was getting. I spent $40 on car vouchers. I have already spent $100 for the game and purchased three extra car packs too.

I'm tired of buying this gotdamned game.

The brand new car voucher DLC (three levels) is not WITH the DLC buys on their store (P.G.s) Why not? The car packs can be bought within the race, that's true. But I bought those the normal way on the FH5 sales location, main page. The DLC is bought, directly, using a PayPal button click. No Steam Wallet B.S.

Are P.G. incapable of taking PayPal using their storefront in screen link *directly to the Steam store* shopping center where they have the entire game, every last part of it, for sale?

These newly introduced car vouchers are NOT there on the store *where all DLC can be bought, and where they can be bought directly. With only PayPal, directly, not Steam Wallet financed by PayPal before Steam will give P.G. their money and take their cut too.*

I was sold the same thing twice. That's my story here, "Annihilator" (scary name).

The car vouchers were not even selling for a good while - a Steam & P.G. screw-up. That's what this thread was started to discuss.

Bottom line, and why I wrote this post above: I should have been able to pay on the link to Steam using PayPal. Period. No packing of my Wallet.

I never use my Wallet except to receive a refund on a game. It's an optional store credit location for future game purchases. It's a store credit rather than a refund back to your personal PayPal account.

Yes i mean in game bought on steam redirect you on steam wallet. Is normal. Work in ten years in this mode.
