without threatening games studios or requiring that capitalism collapses first, what are methods you would use to fix these dumb multiplayer games

because unfortunately i think these guys want skins and progression systems now bleayyeaakkck

i think we gotta trick em into thinking they’ve got skins. my idea is that you get to keep your skins but only until you die, and then it turns into a puff of greasy smoke and you go back to looking like your friend Leonard dressed in lazertag gear. make 'em spend in-game currencies that aren’t tied to real world dollars and i think we have essentially a Skins Methadone Clinic

what are your ideas on how we solve this disGUSTING state of multiplayer games

    I mean it’s not a bad thing inherently, it’s just being done badly. If you played Modern Warfare 2 (as in the original, NOT the remake), unlocking all the little banners and the weapons and the perks and stuff was fun and engaging and not like, predating on players.
