How to end microtransaction stores.

The only way to really get rid of Microtransaction stores is to just not use it. I know it is that simple. Don't get me wrong, they will try to push you towards it more and more as time goes on. This is a good sign, it is telling is that it is working. They are getting desperate and will try almost anything to get us to use it again. They will most likely affect the Brightdust side of the store first as to make us feel like we have no other choice but to buy Silver. By either reducing the amount of Brightdust that you can earn and or what is sold for Brightdust. They will try to lure you back with sales of both packs of Silver and item bundles, they might get their influencers to talk about Silver or certain items in the store that can only be purchased with Silver. Bottom line is, they will try to lure you back to buy Silver, you must resist the temptations. Complaining about it on the Forums or on Twitter/Reddit won't do anything. They are still making money and that is all they care about. Most if not all of you who are complaining about Microtransactions store in video games are the persons who uses it. If you don't use it then why would you complain about it ? I don't spend real money on Eververse and that is probably why i don't complain about it nor see it as a problem. I am complaining about people complaining about the Eververse store and how much they want it gone whilst simultaneously using it.

  • How or what do you think a live service is to survive on? Just people playing it? Buying a yearly dlc or season? Plenty of live services out there will say they won't charge or add any transactions, only to turn around and realize it is not realistic, and add cosmetic micro transactions. Really the only way for any of it to actually stop, is something people don't want to face, getting rid of money, wealth, and power...I'm guessing people would say communism or something. What I'm actually saying, if people didn't have to work, didn't have to focus on money...the next problem is everyone -blam!- like rabbits and breeds like them too...or they be lazy as -blam!- and we will live in WALL-E's universe. We become essentially a virus on the universe. Hopefully we get something like glimmer, or the ability to...take a tree shift into a a programmable matter state then shift it into food, or some other desire. Long story short, couple years and we will hit the singularity and none of this will matter.
