it's an old argument that's regurgitated every year. not sure how or why this instance is more or less egregious than those in the past.
make your peace with it. it'll only stop when it ceases to work as a business model.
If people had just "made their peace" with Microsoft's outdated, invasive, and downright laughable DRM policies then where would the Xbox One be right now? Making a ruckus works.
you're absolutely right it does. i'm 100% behind putting your money where your mouth is.
but in your comparison you're talking about a platform-holder with an audience of tens of millions and game-restricting DRM vs. a niche developer with a (relative to microsoft) modest but fervent fanbase and the console version of microtransactions.
don't get me wrong- i'd love to see all the kontent for a mere $60.00 buy-in. but i have zero faith that a) the mortal kombat faithful will embargo this release and b) enough people WON'T buy the paid-DLC for netherrealm to effectively say, "this pittance of sales doesn't justify the ill will we're generating."
