So me and my associate were discussing microtransactions the other day. He believes that microtransactions have no place, to any degree, in video games. I disagreed. I believe that many devs rely on microtransactions for their profits. Many mobile games, as well as free-to-play games, use microtransactions as their only source of revenue for that game. As with many debates, I have my opinions and he has his, but I was curious as to what the GDNet community thought?
Please keep your replies civil, and respect altering viewpoints. If we can, I would love to get feedback from both indie and AAA devs, seeing as it is mostly the AAA devs that are getting bashed for microtransactions. It would also be great if you can cite any sources or examples when presenting your argument. Thanks guys!
