    I was obsessed with Payday and PD2 before the series moved towards a pay-2-win model, and I haven’t played since. I assume PD3 is going with the same model? Its gotta be riddled with micro transactions, right?

    I’d love to get back in, but thats a dealbreaker for me.

      What pay-2-win model? Balance in PD2 is a mess but all you really need is the legacy pack to beat the hardest difficulties.

      I miss it, but trying to keep up with DLC at a pint got absurd. I haven’t played since White House came out

        Maybe there will be a GOTDecade edition when 3 comes out with all the DLC for a reasonable price. I’d get that.

      I am really hoping they ditch the bloated design of PD2 and use this as a fresh slate to not repeat some of the same mistakes as last time (I have my doubts, hence why I will let it simmer a bit before I dive in if its looking alright). I couldnt care if they added a pass or something that gives cosmetics (NO GAMEPLAY NECESSARY STUFF) if they need that long term cash, but PD2 became so DLC bloated over its life that it became a barrier to entry, or a barrier to even want to boot the game up again after another 5 little DLC purchasable thingies were dropped in the last 2 weeks

        Couldn’t agree more. The core gameplay is so fun, I’d love to play again without the bullshit.
