Glad I stopped preordering video games after the cyberpunk debacle. I’m so tired of this micro transaction nonsense. $70 for a game they will sell millions of copies of and they want to charge $2 for a fast travel crystal. Stop paying for these games and micro transactions and the greed will stop.

I like how old school Final Fantasy did travel.
You start by walking. It’s slow, you explore the map. Then you get a boat, it makes travelling faster, but limited. Then you get an Airship.
You still have to actually do the traveling so you don’t break immersion with “lol teleport!” but it’s sped up significantly once you have done the “explore” part.
I think it’s a problem of modern WoW and why retail WoW, with massively more world to explore feels much smaller than Classic WoW. In retail WoW, you literally teleport everywhere, you don’t need mount and ride horseback to anywhere except the last few yards from the Mage Portal to the quest NPC.
The first DD did feel absolutely bad to travel in. Many ambushes, lots of walking. Getting the Exit and Teleport back spells made coming back easier later on. But actually going anywhere new was a trudge.

I don’t have any issue with not having fast travel.
I also don’t have 65€ to pay for a game or a decent computer (or PS5), so I’ll just play other games and be happy about it.

Pay to win, the game

They’re not fast travel crystals.
Why lie, OP?

More bullshit being spread. You earn everything in game the crystals you buy are finite where you can only have 10 placed in custom locations at once. Which are all earnable in game very easy and has fast travel to major cities already unlocked.

Rage bait, you get crystals in the game.

Optional purchases with everything being free in game? I guess also fuck helldivers 2 right? Hop on the rage wagon tho.

Buy the fast travel dlc and let the devs know it’s a bad game. 1000iq move. Thank me later.
SysGh_st
wait… so this will be yet another “Pay to play. Pay more to win” game?
I see. Well… then I’ll avoid it like the plauge.

I feel like we’re gonna degrade to fucking arcade machines. Died? Pay half of the game price to proceed/play from the start
Hashsmokinslasher
Or just play the game and get it for free

The funny thing is that they probably had the same attitude towards the first game, and then when they released the dark arisen edition they gave players a infinite fast travel key because traveling in that game was a chore
ElectricBiomass
Can’t wait to buy this

1. Crystal, cant buy more then 1
2. It a Teleport point, not a teleport itself
3. There can only be 10 on the map at once.. your buying an 11th
4. Misinformation is just as bad as these MTX

You can buy the fast travel crystal from a vendor in the first major town, think less than 30 mins into the game.

Was tempted to preorder. Thanks for reminding me why this is never a good idea Capcom.

It’s honestly kinda sickening seeing how many people on my friends list are playing this right now.
Grinsnap
Hey at least I didn’t buy it before I found out it’s a piece of shit, so no wasted 70$ 👍
KamenGamerRetro
that first quote is BS anyway, every open world game needs fast travel, some people dont got time for that crap
Ok-Grab-4018
They just confirmed its not a good game
_JudgeDoom_
One sided streamers licking corpo boot is hilarious as well. Grimmmz mods or him(?) banned me for criticizing the mtx and fast travel in chat. His chat was also calling it fine and claiming others are whinny babies lol.

Can people stop normalizing microtransactions ?

It’s really disappointing as they could have proven a point by limiting the fast travel in service of the game world, questioning if conveniences and “quality of life improvements” in modern games do make them more homogenous and boring. Dark Souls 1’s first half before fast travel was more interesting and the lack of fast travel is a big reason why.
Unfortunately they lost all the credibility they had with that statement because they’re charging for it. Whether limited fast travel does improve the game or not, the intention is muddied. It’s like if they let you turn off the BOTW weapon breaking with a micro transaction, your whole argument for implementing it falls out the window.

To be honest, if you play like, 2 hours, everything they are selling as microtransactions, you can buy it in the city. But, it’s very sad to see Capcom doing this kinda shit. I am sad for Itsuno, who probably had 0 decision on this and had a lot of ilusion for this project. The game is very fun and everything that can be purchased as a microtransaction can be bought in the game in 2 hours of game.
