When COD Mobile (both Global and Garena) released in October 2019 - less than 4 years ago - it had 50 Tiers in the battle pass. I came back and it’s 200 tiers now, which is insane.

It’s especially shocking to see as one of the OG players of CODM - I played it since launch - to see firsthand just how desperate capitalism has become at squeezing the proles of as much money as possible at every possible level including something as mundane as gaming.

    The EXCLUSIVE matter of concern for all private enterprises is profit. Whatever it is that they do is at-best secondary to that goal and more likely tertiary behind not being successfully sued for their practices or even quaternary behind that and excluding meaningful competition/having control over the industry.

      This. It’s about time gamers realize this horrible reality we can’t escape from no matter how we vote our wallets UNLESS capitalism is abolished.
