Have you guys seen the movie Free guy,
There is a scene where the owner of the gaming company comes in and basically telling his dev team to make a.skin for blue shirt guy and put him in free city 2.
The dev team.says they are having trouble porting over all the skins from Free city 1 into free city 2.
He says who cares about those skins and one of the protagonist says hey you told the fans that free city 2 will be backwards compatible and the guy goes oh look when I said that I was Lying… The guy is obviously sapposed to be a Scummy gaming Executive type.
But why do I feel like this is mindset of 343 executive team. The fact that cross core is available but they locked it away artificially because they had the plan to make us buy each peice for each core. Like the stuff you unlocked for the Mk6 in the Battlepass they planned on selling you that in the store for the Mk7.
But if they did stuff like cross core and making coatings universal they would miss out on the opportunity to charge you again for the same.otem.you already own.
Seriously how the coatings aren’t universal is not a small oversight . It was intentional because they really don’t have many ideas on how to monetize outside of these scummy things.
