Rockstar Might Be a High Bar but the Contrast Is Still HUGE

GTA online has all sorts of limited time items too, weapons, outfits, cars and choppers, etc. I knew a lot of players at the PC launch so eager to get console exclusive limited time things they would try to use glitches and mod menus to get them, and some of them get banned and have to buy the game again. If Rockstar wanted to, they could simply make these console exclusive things purchasable only by real money and they would earn tens of millions in days! We all know how popular the game is. However, Rockstar still decided to put them back on shelve at about the original prices for PC players to purchase using in game dollars, when they gradually released their FREE DLCs over the years.
In contrast, Zenimax not only refuses to put the old limited time items back online for us to purchase with real money at the original prices, but also refuses to do it at higher real money prices. Instead, they just have to bring them back in lottery boxes and ask its customers, who either already pay monthly fees or have paid a lot of DLC fees, to spend real money to buy a CHANCE to get these items. Shame.
This might be an acceptable strategy for some hollow, average, outdated, and dying MMO, as a way of desperate money grabbing, but Zenimax has time and time again claimed that ESO is a first tier MMO game that, although had some troubles, but is still bound to succeed and thrive for a very long time and most of us players agree, so far.
Please don't do this Zenimax! Even if you put the old limited time stuff back online at twice the original crown prices, I would still consider it reasonable, but lottery boxes?? No means no! It's about principles!

Burning_Talons✭✭✭✭✭Well you have to remember Rockstar is a better company then Zenimax. They dont push broken patches and they actually tske their time and listen to their playerbase. Did I mention everything is available with in-game cash? -
