    Worse than what they’ve been doing for the last decade? It seems to me like this is a better state of things because it’s clearly a lot of money for one big purchase, so you know immediately that it’s not something you can afford. Better transparency, so less manipulative.

    Clearly so it seems to you. There are companies that, more simply, don’t do this at all: they don’t need to be transparent on how dishonest they are… because they aren’t.

    If your argument “in secret they may be”… well, if your point is “entities that seems honest are the most secretly dishonest”, I think the first entity that we can apply your logic is your very self: you pretend to be honest in defend companies who behave transparently dishonest… it simply mean that you’re honesty is just a show off, while in truth you’re just shilling.

    That’s your logic: next time behave openly dishonest, so we know how much transparently dishonest you are.

      I think I’m missing an important part of your argument here. What are they doing that you consider to be dishonest?

        F2P games target need big number of people, by necessity their biggest customer share is low-income people: proposing them luxury range product and peer-pressure (“to look good”) is what I call dishonest.
