In an interview belonging to the Noclip documentary series by Daniel O'Dwyer, Digital Extremes Studio Manager Sheldon Carter detailed an unexpected result that occurred when the developer introduced a small microtransaction for Kubrows, an in-game virtual pet. The studio had implemented what Carter defines as a "slot machine lever" that allowed gamers - for the price of about $0.67 - to randomize the fur pattern and fur color of their pet Kubrow. While it was only a cosmetic feature, the idea of putting something so random behind a paygate drew the ire of many of the game's fans. Still, Digital Extremes went forward with the idea - until one fan spent well over $100 on it almost immediat

Warframe veterans might be shocked the Kuva Drakgoon is this high on the list. This gun got a serious buff from the Sisters of Parvos of update. The buff to Critical Deceleration and the introduction of Galvanized Mods have made this shrapnel-spewing shotgun a real men

While Warframe still has microtransactions, the game has been widely praised for keeping things in balance: the online environment certainly isn't 'pay to win', and purchases within the game don't come remotely as close to gambling as the infamous slot machine lever incident mentioned above.

Microtransactions have been an increasingly touchy subject for gamers in the last few years, especially since Star Wars Battlefront 2 found itself in the spotlight after DICE pushed consumers too far. Game developers have been hard-pressed to find innovative ways to increase revenue earned from titles, but today's story is something else entirely: the developer of Warframe removed a microtransaction because it proved too successful. While some studios purposefully target high-spending gamers (who hold the industry nickname of "whales"), one man's click-happy purchase binge changed the philosophy of the Warframe crew fore

Unfortunately it seems that Nexon is being a tad too eager to win, especially considering that there aren't exactly the Golden Globes at stake.

To be fair, Carbon Games, the developer behind free to play action strategy title Airmech, decided to support Warframe in a similar fashion after their game was defeated in the quarter finals by Warframe itself, but one could say that there's a rather large difference between an independent developer deciding on its own to support another, and a large publisher bringing all its big guns to bear in order to win, involving multiple of its own communities that have nothing to do with the cont

A post on the game's official Tumblr with the rather saddening title "you win if we win" promises several rewards for players of four more popular Nexon games ( Combat Arms, Maple Story, Dragon Nest and Vindictus ) in case of victory, in order to entice the members of said communities to vote for Mabinogi as well (you can see a screencap of the post at the bott
