minus-squareDebatableRaccoonlinkfedilink20•1 year agoWell yeah. 1. They’ve now been raised on this shit and 2. They haven’t been raised to understand the value of money.
minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilink8•1 year ago Look at the state of new releases It’s much better use of money to invest in a game they like than it is to buy a new one
minus-squarePoggervanialinkfedilink8•1 year agoIt’s also easier for kids who may pay for this stuff with their allowance. Telling them to save up $60 for a game is a harder sell for companies than just having them pay $10-$20 now on either in-game currency or a monthly subscription.
