Does anyone actually like Monopoly? It is the worst board game in existence.
To me, it’s not even a game, because players don’t make any decisions. You roll a die and go a number of steps, no player agency so far. After that you technically have a decision to buy or not to buy the property. But it is not really a decision, you need to buy it, if you can afford it.
I believe the main reason people say that they don’t like board games is because the only board game they played is Monopoly.

I feel like other people feel the same way when the see me using vim. I know how to switch between view and edit mode and I know how to quit, but for everything else I need to use help.

You can book a room in Airbnb. I’ve never tried that, but I assume the host is still using the rest of the house. And dogs might want to sleep in their favorite room, not understanding the concept of Airbnb.

1000 Millie Bobby Browns would not be enough for Whitney Houston, because she is actually 4 billion people at the same time. Whitney Houston is every woman.

If you know the basics of probability theory, you can calculate the expexted value in most of the games. For roulette with two zeros, the expected value of your win is 95% of your bet, so it doesn’t make any sense.

I had it in my wishlist for years. I wasn’t exactly waiting for a discount, I was just playing other games. I finally bought it a month ago and already spent more than 100 hours. The game is addictive.

Years ago steam was selling games at much better discounts, but the games were non-refundable. I still have a lot of unplayed games I bought at that time.
After they made the games refundable, the discounts are much worse and I’m following your approach.
