That’s called a dark pattern, which I don’t fall for all that often. I’d just take the F2P route, and I wouldn’t care if I missed out on something where I’d shell out real money for it.

The review said it was likely to become P2W, and I thought it already was P2W. If it wasn’t yet, there could be plans for P2W, which was my gut feeling when I saw dark patterns in the game, which I recognized after looking into it a bit.
Does it have an offline single-player or offline anything? If it doesn’t, that’s live service, that’s not a game… it’d instead be a subscription-based shooter movie that you just so happened to be the protagonist of.
That’s because I called out certain ideological and ecclesiastical nonsense on a different account, and here on this new one, I don’t plan on calling it out as much as I used to.
You seem to be projecting what looks to be a defense for a game that’s rigged against newbies. I’ve taken a look into the game, and figured it out for myself from watching some gameplay. Yes, it’s fantastic once you get the hang of it, but there’s EOMM that you have to deal with too, which is tame to other unethical matchmaking methods like MTXBMM.
In terms of the mobile side, these OS’s aren’t very well polished, and the Linux phone is quite new. However, there are Linux phones being made, but this is more of a niche kinda deal, as people tend to use GrapheneOS or an iPhone (Stock Googled Android is a no-go anymore due to the malware that both Google and other malicious devs add to the Play Store). That’s just how I see it, though.
While Neigsendoig Cocules (whom I edited videos for) and I had used generative AI for album covers in the past (mostly Neigsendoig, though), we always disclose that for ethics reasons. That said, why we would want to use AI to make music is beyond us. I’d rather us be challenged to actually make something using our own brains and knowledge of music theory than let AI do it. It’s good if you’re stuck and need some ideas as a tool, but that’s the extent of it.
From the No Pay To Win Coalition’s review on Steam:
“Overall: 2/5*
Not recommended!
Likely to become a P2W, due to it being a GaaS game.
Other issues:
A low-poly Battlefield copy. ”
If it isn’t P2W as of right now, it will be that way. This also has to do with old-school ownership, as you’re paying for a license that will be revoked any time the devs feel like it.
That, and you have to be in the EU for it to happen. Americans can’t have that, and are forced to upgrade regardless. Unless they switch to Linux, they get clobbered regardless.
The game is P2W, so of course there would be cheaters. There was an anti-cheat used in EAC, but that was bypassable, especially nowadays.
I’d only play it if the game wasn’t P2W despite one having to pay for it. If P2W is removed, I’d consider it. Otherwise, don’t bet on me playing it anytime soon.
Need for Speed: Carbon.
Neigsendoig (whom I edited videos for) and I had just conducted an experiment with some customization options at some certain levels due to significant numbers in cryptocurrency. For example, the Bitcoin rep for each car class (in this game, Exotic, Muscle, and Tuner) has 21% (signifying 21 million BTC) on the Autosculpt parameters for parts we chose, despite us using Extended Customization for some further control in what parts we chose.
This is the same with Monero at 51% (due to a 51% attack that happened to Monero in 2025) for each Autosculpt parameter for parts we chose, 20% (signifying ERC-20) for Ethereum (really, Ether), and just stock for Zano (think Tor routing of sorts for cryptocurrencies without privacy by default), with no Autosculpt.
We also utilized different color schemes representing each cryptocurrency as well to differentiate each car we decided for each class (4 per class). All of this will be edited by either myself or Sendo (if I do edit this, it’d be the first time I edited for that channel in about a year or so). We hadn’t decided upon that as of yet.
That’s what I’ve been doing as of late.
I never forgot about the Boeing “suicides”. Those are Boeing whistleblowers who were murdered because they spoke too much, and broke a sort of NDA that basically requires game-ending if, and when, the NDA is violated.
That latter part is for those that don’t know about how this works.
Kushner and the Saudis, absolutely. Good chance I won’t be playing their newer games after I heard about that nonsense.
I don’t think that’ll be possible. I wouldn’t even buy BF6 because of Javelicrap (EA’s botnet akin to Activision’s Ricocrap), and why I’d want a rootkit on my system is beyond me (plus, Linux users are excluded from playing BF6 in the first place).
If they game-end a whistleblower because of what he’s said against them, it’s not out of their purview to do something like this. They don’t do stuff like that once…
That could be very easy to do potentially with SD 1.5, especially with Mistoon (my PFP was actually made using Mistoon Diamond with 1Shot and Almonds LoRA). I’ll look into this later, especially since Vtubers are rigged using things like Live2D, NijiGenerate (Inochi2D fork), and Inochi2D. I wonder if that could work for Vtuber shenanigans, given what I’ve said, though…
