unlike Baldur's Gate 3, absolutely everything about this game was designed specifically with microtrans in mind

[-] Bizarroland@kbin.social 69 points 1 year ago

Oh my God, you can't just say microtrans. The proper terminology is "gender dysphoric little person"

[-] yeather@lemmy.ca 15 points 1 year ago

Actually that's the wrong use of that word in this context. It's actually a "queer questioning point of sale system" he's talking about.

[-] vaultdweller013@sh.itjust.works 13 points 1 year ago

No no no thats also wrong, it stands for micro transmission. Ya know for small vehicles.

[-] kostel_thecreed@lemmy.ca 8 points 1 year ago

Even you got it wrong! They were talking about the micro figurines for transformers! How you could miss that!!!

could be short for microtransient, and then we're talking about little hobos.. and who doesn't want to talk about little hobos..

They've been awful since Activision got involved. I knew that was the end the day the news broke, people told me I was wrong. I wish.

Also they sexually harassed an employee to suicide. That tells you all you need to know.

Blizzard has been on a downward trend for a lot longer than 3 years.

They were always awful. See: StarCraft Ghost

Haha yeah I remember that one :) That one really surprised people actually. Before that they had a good track record...
