In recent years, the network appeared a lot of «freemium» games when the person gets a game as a gift, but it has a very high level of complexity or a long time leveling and at the moment of collision of the player with problems, it can easier for yourself by purchasing with real money for virtual weapons, ammunition or other additional bonuses allowing you to pass a difficult moment. Further all in this matter could advance publisher Electronic Arts, sometimes managing to sell the game for a lot of money and at the same time add to the game microtransactions, and the process of pumping achievements to make long. The scandal primarily affected the game Star Wars: Battlefront 2, where the players just complained about these problems and the loss of interest in the game without investing money. EA’s answer stunned everyone-the developer tried to justify that buying new characters to the game for a lot of money(and not for months pumping to earn them), the person stands out among others and this is not a lack of the game, but its a plus. This answer has collected the largest number of dislikes in the history of the Internet-more than 667 thousand.
Presumably on this and was decided to make fun of the developers of Ubisoft. The game Assassin’s Creed Odyssey has a very interesting point. The purpose of one of the missions is to defeat the Minotaur, and to begin its implementation is necessary to collect three tokens. When you try to buy one of the tokens in order to speed up the passage, the main character (heroine) gets the answer «Do you want to pay for the victory? Aren’t you warrior? Where’s your honor? Where’s your sense of pride and accomplishment?»
And everything is great in this joke except that Ubisoft itself sells virtual things for real money in Assassin’s Creed Odyssey.
