Goddamn Neo Geo! Haven't heard that console mentioned in years. Nam 75 and Super Spy!
In-game purchases or "pay to win" ruined gaming. DLC done badly is a close second. Look at Crapcom and DLC characters and new editions for Street Fighter.
Fallout 4 is different. I've always liked their games and DLC and pre-ordered but haven't played it yet. Still finishing the newest Batman. That DLC is piss poor. Expensive and cheap shit. Some can be completed in 5 mins. The base game is great.
Street Fighter 5 isn't even out yet and they're already announcing different dlc characters.

Microtransactions, I feel, is what will lead to another gaming crash. Halo 5 was just horrible
with it's installation of the requisition system. Paying $2.99 for just a chance at what you really want
is just absurd.
And yeah, I always felt games like Skyrim, Fallout, and Witcher 3's dlc were different. That it was
truly something they started working on after the release and well worth the money.
