I pay $60 (or whatever), pay for my data connection, and get to play my game literally for years. It’s one of the cheapest forms of entertainment around. I get tons of value out of my purchase, it reduces stress, I get a sense of challenge out of it, and for the amount I spent I get a lot pf return.
Now if only health care were free. That’s just a bullshit statement and not even worth responding to. That said, In its current state it’s the opposite of video games. It’s expensive. The amount you put in is often not what you get out. It’s stressful.
Maybe the only way it’s like games is that someone can pull the plug on you when it’s not profitable anymore.

Right? I feel bad that it’s beautiful outside and we’re all inside paying games and streaming TV, but every time we leave the house as a family, it ends up costing me at least $100.
