And how many hours will you play those games?
Tar_alcaran@sh.itjust.works 3 months ago
Exactly. Videogames are some of the best value for entertainment you can find. There are a couple of games in my steam library that have cost me a few cents per hour of fun.

Paradox games, even with all the DLC, I get thousands of hours out of them. I definitely get my money’s worth that I don’t mind spending $20 on them every few months.

Especially if you compare them to a casino.

I bought Sharknado VR for half a dollar. Took less than half an hour to beat that mess. Money well spent.

Most of them? 0.
Heck, most of them will sit there in the library list forgotten, to be absentmindedly scrolled past in five years’ time with the thought “I really should install that game and give it a try… someday…”

Depends on how long you play until you run into a game breaking bug and realize you’re now SOL.

I have been known to share similar budgeting justifications but instead of Pirating and video games I used the amount I would normally spend on a night out drinking. Figure $120 for a half ball. $100 for drinks and tips. Food $20-40. If I had no problem pissing all that money out my dick hole the next morning as being all I had to show for it, then I have no problem throwing that kind of money at something I’ll have or use for months or years.

Whats a half ball? Is this cocain related?
sugar_in_your_tea@sh.itjust.works 2 months ago
I think it’s half-bail, meaning they got arrested every other time they went out drinking.
Jiggle_Physics@sh.itjust.works 2 months ago
Yes, half an eight ball

A gram and half of coke usually tho I’ve heard the measurement of a ball used for other drugs. A ball is 3 grams.

Man I used to go out all night on maybe 1/10th that budget haha, say 10/30€ on class As, 10€ on pregame drinks, 10€ on club entrance (then on water all night). But I have a friend that spent similarly on night outs and also uses it the same way you do as justification.

And when I started drinking bars still had $0.25 draft nights and $0.10 wings. Yeah, that’s not a typo ten fucking cent wings. Used to get all sorts of fucked up for like $10. I’m not even crazy old, I’m 37. I was definitely 17-19 years old when a local bar ran twenty five cent draft night but the wings, I was 21-23 when that was running.

I’d rather gaming developers have that money than casinos.

I’d rather indie devs have that money than greedy corporations and casinos.

They won’t admit it, but most AAA game companies are casinos
sugar_in_your_tea@sh.itjust.works 2 months ago
Same. Most of the money I spend on games goes to indie devs, and I’ll usually only buy a AAA if it’s either on steep discount or actually really good.

Too bad money goes directly to the publisher to decide who gets what.
