You'll need to pay to edit your Monster Hunter Wilds character beyond the first free redo

Don't buy these predatory games, refund if you did. Stop supporting these scummy companies, it's the only way they will learn.I doubt they would even learn from that.

If theres 1 free redo, you get 2 chances to do character edits. Im not a fan of the "pay to edit" thing but like........if you cant get your character right after 2 tries and you pay to edit again, i dont exactly have sympathy. Playing dressup is supposed to come with the armors, not the character editor.In Cyberpunk 2077 it took me forever to figure out the perfect sized tits to pair with the perfect sized cock on my V so I think we play games differently.

This game already costs $70. People should be able to play the game they paid for however they want. If they want to keep redoing their character, let them.Yeah I agree, its pointless monetization that only hurts the consumer

Often times, including this time for sure, changes like this are made after the review period specifically so that they'll fly under the radar from press. But also, they may just be informing their readers who didn't know the last several times Capcom has done this.> including this time for sure, changes like this are made after the review period Could you clarify? As far as I can tell it was there when Wilds launched on PC.

This post did not contain any content.I thought this was for stat distributions at first, which would be annoying, but at least somewhat understandable. But this actually seems to be just cosmetic re-rolling, which is just absurd. I get it if a developer doesn't want it to be *free* to reroll a character's appearance. But don't charge them money for it, just make them do a quest or something. God damn.

> In the grand scheme of nickel-and-diming I wouldn't call this abysmal This is the mentality that ruins it for the rest of us. It's shameful.Well, that and all the people buying the game full price day one. Even here on Lemmy I've seen comments unapologetically saying they bought it minute one, day one. It's kind of disgusting to see, tbh.

We were never gonna shop our way out of this abuse.

This post did not contain any content.they have been doing this for a while. at least since dragons dogma online. In monster hunter worlds I used cheats to give myself the cosmetic edit currency item but no idea if that works in any others.

Honestly, out of all of them - IMHO Capcom puts out quality games that you can buy once and then buy a dlc and be able to fully enjoy an amazing game with incredible replayablity. I'm not saying I agree with the pay for cosmetic reroll thing, but if Capcom wants to put in cosmetic 2-3$ trinkets, whatever. It affects the game barely any at all, and in the case of Monster Hunter, there are so many in-game cosmetics and trinkets you can unlock already that look awesome. On the flip side of this you have scum bag companies that lock FUN behind micro transactions, not solely cosmetics. Still, the pay for reroll is fucked and I only hope we can mod in the ability to change it like we had in World.

As far as I can tell it was there when Wilds launched on PC.The review period is typically pre-launch. In a perfect world, the benefit there is that reviewers aren't all rushing to get their review done first, and publishers get to have good review scores correspond with the launch of the game, right when interest in buying it is at its peak. But in this case, they can review the game before the release date, praise it, and then Capcom can sneak in a patch on day 1 of its real release that adds in microtransactions like these that might sink the score if they were there for the reviewers.

They slowly chip away at consumers with this shit. Remember the outrage over horse armour? These companies normalised this mindset of "cosmetics being paid are fine!". You should buy a game once and be done with it. Expansions I can get behind paid, but that is as far as it should go.

Playing dressup is supposed to come with the armors, not the character editor.If this feature is unneeded, why is it then available for paying users?

It's kind of disgusting to see, tbh.Disturbing? Yes. Surprising? No, sadly. You have weeks or months of "this thing doesn't look good, the beta sucked, it's just the same as before etc." Then millions of people buy it anyway.
-
So Im stuck with what I chose at the beta test as I wouldn’t want to blow my chance at a free change later?You can create your character, don't have to used the one from the beta

Why the fuck would that be understandable lmaoCharacters should have some level of permanence to them. If there's no consequence to rerolling stats, then you're not playing a "character", as much as you're equipping a stat loadout. Limiting spec rolls is pretty standard.

Playing dressup is supposed to come with the armors, not the character editor.Wow this is one of the most pathetic comments I have ever seen. "If you haven't figured out how to enjoy the game in two attempts, get fucked buddy! That's your fault for attempting to explore avenues if enjoyment! You need to do it my way, or face the consequences of payment!" I don't know how we got to not just complacency in these predatory practices, but outright defending them too. Pretty soon you'll be asking the company to directly shit in your mouth rather than present it on a plate.
