many of the most interesting games started as free mods or student projects

    The rich can easily exploit the political system and lobby for favorable laws = Not only is it pay to win, the devs suck the dicks of their biggest whales

      It’s pay to win, where if you pay enough, the devs will add customized cheats that only work for you.

      Whistleblowing corruption is dangerous and might often end in persecution against the whistleblower = Reporting cheating whales is a surefire way to get yourself banned

      The wealth inequality gap is mind-boggling = You’d need to grind nonstop for a total of 5 billion hours to buy one of everything on the cash shop

    Too many gold sinks at low level, not enough gold sinks at high level.

      WAY too much grinding at lower levels and the racial stats are all kinds of imbalanced

        I think they meant the sub where life is treated like a game, a very poorly designed game (almost as if there was no Designer, just people).

        Things like, “I’m level 18, should I spec my character into the biochem, robotics, or software guild?”

        Or “What’s the cheat code for an affordable surgery?”

        You get the idea. Life’s a game. And it sucks. Stupid devs.

          I wish they would properly announce the UFO DLC already. All we have is rumors and hearsay.

            I’m personally of the opinion that the hints aren’t for the UFO expansion, but it’s probably teasers for the World War 3 event, combined with camera artefacts and general player secrecy.

            It’s sad too. Everyone wants some good new DLC. All this PvP shit is getting out of hand. :(

          Affordable surgery is exclusive to the European servers, it seems.

    If the downvoters want to buy more votes mine only costs $500. You can send you money to the nearest food pantry or food bank.

    This thread got me thinking, do we have a replacement for r/outside on Lemmy? That sub was pretty entertaining at times

    Yes. I’d actually love this. Then maybe I’d listen.

    I love it when I see a headline and then hear 1383x youth trendy people repeat the headline. Then they tell me they don’t follow msm and that they cultivate their own views. …I just say… O.K. …because I don’t care. Then they act like they had the biggest mic drop because I didn’t want to hear the same dumb shit for the 5 billionth time.
