  1. I don't really care for all the nerd hurt about cosmetic items not being awesome and costing money. It's cosmetic... Unless they advertise it as being more awesome than it is (IE false advertising) who gives a crap and is it really worthy of a 5 min whine/rant? I get bitching about pay to win... But pay to not look quite as nerd-jizz-evoking as you would like.... really...? I've done years of modeling, rigging, and animation. How does relate REMOTELY qualify an opinion about the economics of these transactions? How long does it take to skin a gun in COD that gets flicked off for $5 because it's got a fucking dragon on it? Welcome to fucking microtransactions. Is a bitmap for your rifle 'worth' $5?? How does your ability to do any of these things qualify any fucking statement about the value of these items? Values that are obviously based on demand. Not the hours spend producing them... I don't know - don't care. You might as well say that virtual houses in some MMORPG are a rip off because you have a fucking realtors accrediation and been doing open homes for years. So you KNOW house values...! I was interested in the gameplay, and it looks crap. Thanks for that portion of the review at least.
