@olmitch back in 1776 all they had to do was play stickbutt in the mud and drink when they weren't working so they were faced with reality. we have a lot of routes for escapism these days.

@souldessin i've never even had a port wear out on anything lol. i know it can happen but it almost seems like a myth to me lol.

@applejack fair enough! $70 is a bit steep for me, but I've paid $60 for games that gave me 20-30 hours that I really love and had an awesome time with. You can really only expect that quality from a handful of companies though, especially these days.

I'm thinking more along the lines that people would maybe have more money to spend on games they want to play if they didn't waste their money on things that ought to last a lot longer.

@Mr_NutterButter dude I've had my launch ps4 controllers this whole time and they still work like they were brand new. Okay I changed the stick rubber on one of them but it was just because it was getting too smooth and that was like a $2 fix lol. Fuck, my guitar hero guitar from what... 2009? Still works. I have a Wavebird GC controller from 2003 and it is still in flawless condition. I really don't know what people are doing to their stuff for them to fail so often. The only one I can understand is the joycon.

But yeah, as far as skins and stuff go, what really baffles me is that people will complain about cosmetic items and any form of monetization on a free game at all. Gamers *are* SUPER entitled tbh.

@Erowitch I try my best to always do that! I like sharing art and finding new artists :)

@Yokappa it's good to have control over your content just in case someone uses it for something actually bad and you don't want it attached to you. but for the most part yeah, idgaf either really. more of a failsafe than actually going after people.
