I'm sure he'll be really sad when he fires all those people who work there, while this has 0 effect on how many yatchs he's planning to buy this year.

Sounds like the US doesn't love the free market after all.

Really? Memes have the jester's privilege imo.

It seems we disagree on the value of things. For me at least, somebody had to be vaguely creative to create the fucking blue 20$ skin, and the value is not in the non-existent item, but in the very real aesthetic and social experience of owning that skin, a social symbol, like art in your wall. Useless by itself, but it makes you feel things and let's you say something about yourself to strangers.

To me that is understandable. Like buying AirPods instead of cheapo earbuds just because they look cool and you want to look preppy with your friends. (Notice the extra cost is not about the sound or the function of the thing, but a out the social value, which I'd say is still value)

Monetized grind is the exact opposite. You are working to have the privilege of not paying money for the better experience that is already there. People are getting paid to make things WORSE for you, so that you pay money to avoid-displeasure rather than enjoying something new, even if it's literally just enjoying fleeting vanity.

Paying to skip is not saving me time. They are giving me a worse quality product and then making me pay to solve the problem that they have a financial incentive to make worse. This is like thinking you're getting a deal when phone sellers remove the cable from the box. You're are not, you're being given a free problem, that you can pay even more to solve.

Fucked me up. But I was an idiot and did it rashly. It always nerve racking, but if your ethe one making the choice you can prepare beforehand for some o the eventualities.

"Time Saved" is not a real thing though. This would imply there was an unavoidable need to spend that time to begin with, there isn't.

The game is artificial, if something is time consuming it's by design. If you're paying to "save time" in a game, you're being farmed for money, plain and simple. You ain't gaining anything, you're paying to avoid the inconvenience placed there by the people who are selling you a work around for that inconvenience. You're getting fleeced son.

Weren't they like fuck buddies? They are enemies now?

Makes sense. But it seems pedantic to make the distinction between APM and EAPM.

I think he misspelled "Incel".

What democracy? Is he talking about the oligarchy that rules the US?

Because it is not a question. They are not asking for information. They are complaining about your work by recriminating you. Like a rethoric question where the answer is "because you're stupid".
