Asmongold on Blizzard’s “greed”
The streamer explained his position on why he believes microtransactions are bad for the game and the player base.
Taking a look at his previous comments on the situation, and looking at new items in the game’s store, he said: “So, the reason why it’s bad is that the sets in the game will end up not looking as good as the sets that are put in the store. And I think that you’re able to make an argument that, ‘I like this set (Eternity’s End) over this set (purchasable transmog).’ “But you know what you can’t make an argument for? That this set was not more well designed, and this set was not more unique, and that this set did not have more effort put into it.”Time starts1:30for mobile users
