The MTX stuff is whatever, same with the New Game aspect. If you don't want the MTX, don't buy them. The game is designed to make the player deal with their actions/decisions. Crying over OCD save scumming is a personal issue. Learn to deal.
Completely sincere - Can you link me one article or video that states this?
...you're responding to someone saying fast travel and character editing is behind a paywall, but quoting examples that explain this isn't true at all?
You act all sorts of surprised that Capcom is going this route with MTX? Have you not played any of their recent titles? Did you play the original Dragons Dogma?
I hate pushsquare but I assumed you'd want proof and I knew they had talked about this very thing

Performance issues are a bummer and will hopefully be fixed. Anything else is just gamers being butt hurt.
No, they are always extremely limited even if you pay since you can only place 10 at a time; go ahead and buy 30 of them if you want, you'll have the same amount in-game as someone who didn't pay
Well, yeah, some of that is pretty bad
I owned zero Capcom games until DD2. And no, never played the first.
I understand you're rising up, but I was simply stating that this is nothing new with Itsuno games. We went through the same "outrage" with DMC 4 & 5 and literally no one cares about it or talks about it now. It's just not a major issue in the grand scheme. If they were nerfing exp gain and selling an exp boost, then yeah, I'd be rising up too.
I don't know why they couldn't be fixed, I'm not a game developer and I don't work for Capcom.
. Just don't buy them. It's a single player game. It's not a pay to win scheme, it's just Capcom taking advantage of people who want to cheese the game for themselves and lack self-control. I think it's brilliant and an easy way to fund development of other games. 
Thank you - So this suggests reviewers are not disclosing, perhaps out of fear of future blacklisting/financial interest.I hate pushsquare but I assumed you'd want proof and I knew they had talked about this very thing

The slow creep of normalization is a huge problem. Today it's a non-issue for your situation, in the future...Maybe it will be. By then, since you turned a blind eye, you will regret not calling out these practices.I don't know why they couldn't be fixed, I'm not a game developer and I don't work for Capcom.
Who the F is getting worked up over MTX in 2024?
Performance issues should be fixed, the other stuff is a nothing burger.
I get it. I won’t argue against you on that. Let loose.
Gamers are never happy. Starfield has fast travel options coming out of each hole, people complain. DD2 has limited fast travel, with the option to buy more fast travel, people complain.
I hear what you're saying but it's not going away. It is normalized and it's not from people like me because most games I play don't have MTX and I've never bought any when they are available. I can understand wanting to vocalize your dislike but it's not going to change anything. Capcom has been doing this stuff for well over a decade and as far as I know, it's not necessarily pay to win because it's always in single player games. It's just an easy way to earn revenue off suckers. It's kind of scummy but it's negligible in the grand scheme of MTX stuff.
So it's the reviewers who should be getting the pushback not the game

If only there was an option to not buy those optional MTX.
They aren't asking me to pay shit.
Yep.
You change your class freely at some point in the game I believe and switch between them as you want. That's how it was in the 1st game and I think here too.
The character customization thing isn’t even an issue. Who needs to constantly change how their character looks? Iirc this wasn’t an issue in monster hunter, most mmorpgs, souls games, etc.
While I disagree with these MTX practices, I respect that you are willing to state your opinion mostly without degrading others. I'm not sure echo chamber is the right connotation for some, but I see where you are going with it.
I think it's one of those things where once people hear that they can't do it, they get upset by the arbitrary limitation.
Most likely not the same people or team.All that time spent on thinking about and developing microtransactions could've been put towards optimising the game.

Fire those people hire more people in the team making the game.
In the previous game, you got about 6 of the ferrystones (Fast travel stones) through your entire playthough, and they weren't purchasable with currency in game, you got them as quest rewards from what I remember, so you could only get a limited amount of them in a play through
You and me both brother. I got spit on and kicked hard when I brought up my concerns in a different thread, now it has all come to fruition. The writing was all over the wall with this one with the “uncapped” 30 fps for me though. If you can’t hit at least a locked 30 fps in 2024, you should not be releasing your game. But to charge for fast travel is a whole nother level of scummy.
Already explained one post below you, but you seem like the type of person that could use additional explanation. For a company this is simply cost and FTE distribution. If you need to hire less people for monetization, you can spend more for FTE in the backend.Yea, totally same team, the guys deep in graphic engine coding and the guys making a store for items
You got it
