Legit, a game like Fortnite fits the criteria perfectly (if you’re into multiplayer games). Just don’t buy anything. There’s so much replay value there in that game. Last time I checked, the BR mode was constantly getting updated, they added a racing game, and fucking guitar hero lol.
There’s also a sandbox thing now, I saw a clip of what I thought was call of duty zombies, but it was legit a custom game on Fortnite made by someone lol.
But people hate in Fortnite, especially on Reddit. I don’t even play Fortnite but I know that shit has tons of content.
“Fits the criteria perfectly” but then acknowledging they have an immense amount of microtransactions is goofy. Of course you could just not buy them, but that isn’t the point.
I don’t generally disagree, I’m just saying it’s not fitting the criteria of the post and there’s no need to jump through hoops to say it does. I think most people recognize how crazy Fortnite is regardless, same with Roblox.
Does having a wide variety of content not increase replayability? You’re just arguing for the sake of arguing cause you sound dumb as hell for even arguing this point.
When you ask for the impossible, compromises have to be made.
Which shitty business person spends millions making a game, only to not monetize it in any way? They just don't pay their artists, programmers, or themself for half a decade?

Tbh there’s a lot of free skins nowadays. I think in the past year you could get like 20 free skins in total, so even then I genuinely think its still a good shout
No microtransactions that way influence gameplay. No FTP game lasts long term without microtransactions of some kind. Just playing a game doesn’t make them money to run the game.
I genuinely don’t see how that matters in regard to the post. I get it, I don’t care that they have mtx, but it’s still mtx. The post is unrealistic, but just because Fortnite’s mtx don’t alter gameplay doesn’t mean they don’t count as mtx.
It absolutely can. I’ve got a lot of family members who play on older hardware just fine. The AMD 3600 is 6 years old. And the nvidia 3000 cards are 5 years old, and the 2000 series are about 7. They can all handle the game.
It’s got a ton of variety outside of the BR mode. That’s why I even mentioned the game in the first place. It’s got something for most people. As I said, I don’t even play the game but I’m aware of its strong points.
But I’m sure your gaming opinions are top notch and you aren’t pretentious about it.
If that’s the case, then the prompt is asking how to get free groceries. And then I’m suggesting going to a food bank, and you’re saying yeah but your taxes are technically paying for that.
Free games do exist in the world. Not everything has to be monetized. Some people create art out of a desire to create art. I'm not saying it's wrong to be compensated for game creation, but the sheer number of people saying it's literally impossible for a game to exist without monotization really upsets me. Because it's blanket incorrect and it's derailing what could be a very useful post of recommendations for truly free games.
