Battlefront 2 Pay to Play/ Death of Triple A Games

Image
    Early Access started on Battlefront 2 and the outrage began immediately.  Everyone is saying that main characters of the franchise are locked behind either a pay wall or random luck of the draw with loot crates, that seem to take forever to obtain.  It is sad to see such a promising game get stuck with a pay to win setup.   Pay to win will be the death of the Triple A title and the larger developers if they don't see this.   It is insane to expect people who have already paid $60 for the game you made, to pay another amount of money to unlock content in the game. This model makes people feel like unappreciated and makes the consumer angry which is not a profitable business model.  I am perfectly fine with games that put cosmetics into loot boxes that I have the option to pay for.  This model does not effect the main game play and does not give anyone person a advantage just because they spend more money. Games such as Overwatch, Call of ...

New Overwatch Characters and Other Great Things.

Blizzard   So Blizzcon had been going on this weekend and a lot of things have happened but I'm not a huge Blizzard fan. But love some Overwatch and when I saw the news of a new Character I had to share the news. Moira is a new support character with a blend of Zenyatta and Mercy. She is a Talon agent as well which makes it even better.  There was a lot more information released such as new map and legendary skins for multiple characters. (images from Blizzard)

SEC Gameday Preview and Predictions.

Photo Credit   Florida @ Missouri 11:00 ESPN 2 This game is going to be a tough one for the Gators.  The first week after the coach getting fired.  Missouri hasn’t really been dominating this year but giving everything that Florida has going on right now I’m gonna give this one to Missouri. Auburn @ A&M 11:00 ESPN I think everyone knows what I think of this game and how the outcome holds the  future for Gus. With that being said I think this is going to be a close game. I think it is Auburn’s to lose at this point.  I’m gonna say Auburn wins but not by a lot. I am giving this one game of the day status. Miss St. VS UMass 11:00  SECN We all know what this game is. Just a filler on the schedule.  Hail State Vanderbilt VS W Kentucky 11:00 ESPNU Oh the Blacksheep of the SEC.  This should be a simple victory for the Commodores but hey don’t sleep on Western Kentucky today. Georgia VS South Carolina 2:30 CBS...

Rocket League Needs a Currency System

Image
      Well it’s the season of events and every game has one. Wether your grinding for skins on Overwatch or buying coins on Fortnite.  I love Halloween events personally just because of the content. One event this year has stood out to me among the rest. Rocket League. This years Rocket League event has had me hooked ever since I loaded the game up and started playing it.  The content in the event is nice and I want to obtain it all. But that is not what I am chasing afte the most.   I am chasing this in game currency Candy Corns.  It is the smartest idea Rocket League has come up with yet. And I think they have been doing a lot of things right lately.  But this, this changes everything.  I have a desire to grind away at this game to get these little things. They give you the opportunity to purchase content instead of hoping for a lucky drop or purchasing a key to open a crate.  I personally don’t like the concept of the cra...
