    I hate MTX, lootboxes, and battle passes, but I cannot imagine that they’ll go away unless it’s to replace them with something even worse.

      Those “games” on Nintendo Switch that are just a license to access a cloud streaming version of the title is, in my opinion, a much worse issue than MTX.

      In fact, one of them was taken offline - the Switch is still active, which means there are people who paid full price for a singleplayer game and it no longer exists.

        Oh wow I didn’t even know that was a thing. Yeah you’re right that does sound worse.

        Evil is evil. Greater, lesser, middling. If I had to choose I’d rather not choose at all.
