I think the game is made to capitalize on kids
Judging by the dialogues this game is targeted at 10-14 years old, and the microtransaction for cosmetics are clearly intented to abuse kids that are no adults and can't control themselves or have not enough common sense.

Countries should ban games like this

Or you could just not buy the microtransactions or game

blah blah blah, you could earn the money in game and not pay for anything...

How many “This is a stupid game for babies” posts are we gonna get. It’s okay to not like a game but it sure feels like you all need a lot of validation of that opinion. Kinda like, dare I say it, a child.

that's not true , you can't earn the money in game to buy the premium skins.

IKR, geez... It feels like a movie to me when I play it. Just don't get the outfits.

My bad, then don't get the skins. The game works perfectly fine without the added skins. I only use one anyway for each character. I actually don't even know why I get the expensive one because I just use the fantasy skin for each character lol.

If your kids are picking up on Alien references Mazisky, that's on you.

Kids aren't all able to control themselves. It should be not allowed to have microtransactions in a game intended for that young audience.

It is clear 2k knew what they were doing.

Kids also don’t generally have access to credit cards and ways to buy these things,
Unless parents or guardians are irresponsible.

The game is also rate T. So it’s meant for teenagers that should know better and need opportunities to learn about good spending habits.

I think your “think of the children” defense does not hold any water my friend. It’s okay to not like a game. Move on and play something else

Game is Pegi 12.

It is really sad to see people being fine to Companies abusing kids only to defend their favourite game. Such a shame

I’m gonna guess you don’t actually have kids. Because as a parent, “predatory microtransactions” are not even on my
list of concerns.

The game is rated PEGI 12, so you shouldn't let 10-11 year olds play it unsupervised. I think this age rating is a bit surprising since there's a bar in the game and you can have drinks there.

Such young kids do not have their own income/living costs yet though and even if they have their own debit cards, they would be relying on pocket money given to them by their parents etc. If they waste it all on video game cosmetics, then that's a good lesson for them to learn.

I think the DLC, Season Pass and cosmetics are meant monetize the audience which can actually pay for these, and by that I mean us much older kids who are still into Marvel.

Yes, you probably do not give your kids access to your debit/credit cards. For those parents who do fail like that though, I can see video game microtransactions being a legit concern but that's due to their own stupidity.

Bro, are you still on here trolling about this? You need to come with something better than that to stir up the hive.

Dude, all your posts are complaining about this game because "Disney" and whatever issues you have with it.

Also, don't give us this "the dialogue is meant for this particular audience" when you don't own the game, you never inteded to get it in the first place, and have spent the weeks leading up to its release being preemptively offended by it.
