 so please be aware guys that this is a really early build of the game and what you will witness may not reflect the full game on release so guys i am back with another first ascending video and well guys i want to talk about pay to win monetization this and the other from is free to play looter shooter has it gone guys my name is dpj and if you enjoyed the video leaving a like really helps out and if you like what you see and want to see more be sure to subscribe okay so this free to play looter shooter we're all expecting monetization in some way it's going to happen but how it's going to happen we just do not know i do have a clue though and that's what i'm going to share going to share with you today now an interview next on did with a few sources state that they are not going to pursue any form of pay to win which is definitely good to hear but i will say we've heard this kind of thing in the past and have semi snuck it into certain games mentioning no names but it is what it is but i do believe that they're going to be true to their word due to the type of game this is and a lot of competition there's a lot of stiff competition when it comes to looter shooters i mean the main ones destiny we've got many many more out there but this game in itself i've played the better for three days straight now a lot of hours in the game i'm enjoying it i'm down to rock with this game when it releases next year but i want to know more about monetization so me personally believe it's just going to be about skins weapons skins characters skins emotes silly things like that that's what i believe it's going to be that's what i believe they're going to make their money from support this game now i say this because when you play the game there's actually nowhere you can apply any kind of armor there's literally nothing to do with clothing no armor no cosmetics nothing at all it's all weapons all weapons and even the weapons i say they're generic they look incredible but yeah that's it there's nothing to do with armor i do believe and what gives me even more of a clue is when we press to go down for decoration guys we've got skins go to skin inventory you can equip unequip collected skins now you can't click on this which is fair enough well that's what i believe this is going to be i believe this is going to be many many skins for the many many characters in the game social motions obviously emotes um there's a few here i wouldn't be surprised with some amazing looking things that i added that you would have to pay for for instance as you can see here like holograms pretty badass but the skins itself are more interesting and i'm willing to support the game if i enjoy a game listen if i enjoy a game i'm going to support the developers especially when it's your free to play game they create a badass looking scheme for one of these characters you bet you ask me to buy it if it isn't overpriced damn right i'm gonna i did an apex legend so first time i played that game i absolutely loved uh some of what they offered the amount money i spent on my daughter for fortnite unbelievable one of the worst from these guys her epic account got hacked and she lost everything got in and epic are just absolutely useless we've provided all kinds of uh proof that it's her account motherfuckers ain't got a clue but either way forget that i'll support a game if it's good if it's free to play and i like what i'm paying for and it is an overpriced now we see here we've got lepic or lapic whatever his name is we also have here ultimate lepic i don't know if this is their way of showcasing to us what a skin cannot like but this is the same character i do more or less think it's just going to be uh that these 10 characters just start with one nine with the ultimate version of the one here i do believe what we're going to be able to do is probably somehow or another upgrade these characters level them up somehow maybe get ultimate versions of them which would be pretty cool but they've said themselves and maybe way more than 10 characters or nine characters are released and the clue is there descendants slot there's 10 of a hundred there maybe even guys you can purchase new characters i mean i wouldn't be surprised it's probably something that's going to happen and again it's a free to play game i'd support that i mean it's i mean because it isn't you say play to win pay to win even in the pve based game like this uh if it was pvp it's understandable having an advantage over your another real life person is a bit of a icky one in my opinion i kind of wouldn't support that but in regards to playing against the environment and playing against the enemy playing against ai playing against bots if someone's paid for something they deserve to they deserve to rock that shit they deserve to rock that shit in my opinion they really do especially in a game like this like i said it's free to play anyone can pick this up anyone can play it um but if they do decide to create or bring in viable characters it just depends how they are i wouldn't support it if it is literally like brutally overpowered compared to what's the base game's gonna offer i mean that'd just be wrong but if there's certain things that just give you a little bit of a well how can you say a little bit of a i don't know advantage over the standard characters i mean hey they've got to entice people into spending on the game if they plan on supporting it which is fair enough it's the way it's got to be these days the way it's got to be these days but yes i do think like i said monetization in this game won't be as bad as many people are expecting and won't be as bad as many other games we're seeing out there now but hopefully it's fair hopefully it's balanced hopefully it's all good and hopefully we all enjoy it we've got a funny feeling guys you know what the first descendant may just be a good game i think it's a game a lot of people will jump on too but we will see you next year but there we have it guys my opinions on monetization how i think it will affect this game what it'll bring to it and yeah let me know your thoughts down below on the whole situation around monetization pain to win in a pve game this and the other but guys i do appreciate your stopping by if you do enjoy the video leaving a like really helps out if you like what you see and want to see more be sure to subscribe and hopefully guys i will see you on that next one
