Discuss the merits of going ftp or not.
Think about it. Wouldn't Nintendo make MORE money and find even more critical success if the next BotW adopts the free-to-play model? Look how well Genshin is doing as a prime example.
Switch is also perfect for ftp. Thoughts?

Absolutely not. I just want to purchase a full and complete Zelda without whatever they'll use to make money off it.

Are there suddenly going to be 20+ playable characters and a whole leveling/equipment/resin system that drive f2p mechanics? Then no.

This kind of heretical post should be a bannable offense.

BotW2 is probably the only thing that could get me to re-purchase a Switch at this point, and this would essentially make the console dead to me.

Forget the obvious answer (no, as you might've picked up), but like, how?

What would you even gacha?

I hope not. Even not buying stuff on Genshin Impact knowing about the currency really bothers me all the time.

No. Even more critical success? Have you seen BotWs meta critic score? The notion they need F2P mechanics for critical success is asinine.

We go years with people complaining about lootboxes, and then one gacha game hits it big, and everyone loses their minds

That's a line of thought an investor/executive would have, which, I'm not.
I'm a customer who doesn't want to deal with the usual gacha/mtx bs. So no, I don't want that.
