Only time I was confronted with P2W was in WoWs (World of Warships), which I sunk 1500 bucks into over the course of a year or so. The game messed with my head, it's like addiction. Eventually I cut my losses and deinstalled, but the whole business model seems to be targeted at vulnerable individuals and is exploitative. I'm against it.

I do love how some retards will actually try and defend anti-consumer practices though, it's like they take it as a personal attack that you aren't as much of an easy/willing mark as them or something lmfao -

It explains the fucking state of the industry doesn't it? It isn't just the normies that caused gaming to fucking nosedive in quality. -

WetWipe (folklore@decayable.ink)'s status on Sunday, 08-Dec-2024 06:26:26 JST WetWipe I can't believe you niggers cannot understand that when a game is p2w the core gameplay is degraded so people will burn cash to bring the game to the level of progression it would have been if the game had a fixed price, it's not about winning it's about not buying shit that will use you like a fucking whore.
Fuck f2p and fuck p2w -

:suihead: (sui@decayable.ink)'s status on Sunday, 08-Dec-2024 06:26:28 JST :suihead: Dude it's so fucked, even in fringe F2P MMORPGs I've seen people dropping 5 figures a month on the chance to get mounts or some shit. And then nobody can else can compete for free, even if they play like 16 hours a day and have perfect reaction speeds/skills etc. Gaming's meant to be escapism imo, not a fucking recreation of the class system that most of us get assraped by every day.

:suihead: (sui@decayable.ink)'s status on Sunday, 08-Dec-2024 06:26:29 JST :suihead: Yeah I have addictive personality issues, runs in the bloodline. Gacha/lootbox gambling shit has raped my bank account more times than I'd like to admit, so I avoid it because it's pretty much just evil exploitation of consumers. Why would I support that shit? So I mostly just pirate games and use cracked versions/hacks to give me unlimited premium currency, burn through it until the serotonin stops and then move on. -
