There was once told of an author who spoke of the light and would lead all into the throws of darkness. Be wary of such a speaker of truths for they will lead you into the night.

I feel the same way... until it’s released and becomes free to play. Then those microtransactions can be whatever they want.

This is partly why I immediately grabbed up the Mario themed Hanafuda cards from Club Nintendo. Free Nintendo cards! It’s a little bizarre to see the quality of everything. I think if I remember correctly, I gingerly opened up the box and internals, then put everything back because it was so nice.

Indeed.

Yeah, kinda soul crushing. Rick is such a dynamic character.

I’ve gotten sooooooo much mileage out of this at work. Get your Sh*t together.

Geeze, flak cannon. As if the charity would return $3000 if the value turned out to be $30. Capitalism and charity are two different things. Charities engaging in capitalism are playing by the rules of the game and you would never hear them complain about losing out. Both players are familiar with the concept of…

So... This could potentially add 30ish cards to your deck? Is it mill’er time?

I don’t need all your common sense and “logic”. I’m trying to be outraged here. I’m also very tired, so your statement “BURN THAT STORE TO THE GROUND” looks it’s bouncing up and down like a flame. Very tired.

This is true, but since they immediately sold out with Walmart and other retailers now cancelling preorders it’s a safe bet that it’ll be dramatically “not enough”. To the point where they should have known better.

Exactly what I was going to say. The Wii U did bad. So why take a huge gamble on a new system, when you can curb the risk by releasing in batches?

I know exactly the feeling. In more rural areas you walk through any random store and BAM, there it is. Sometimes in a weird ass store like JCPenny or like a grocery store.

This explains a lot. Sounds like they drastically overestimated their upcoming supply and had to back out the extras.

Oh, also... talking about Player Unknown Battlegrounds specifically. I bought it on sale a while back. I want to say it was a small deal.

That is the perfect point. It’s effectively a lottery. In fact, almost exactly like a lottery if you can sell some of those items on the market place for more than you put in.

To add to that... It’s a $29.99 game that is viral and popular. I balk at $59.99 games that charge you for decorations, but when dealing with a reasonable up front price I think I can live. If they make money off not-me and it keeps the lights on, hey... No problem. And if I play it til my eyes bleed and want to…

Geeze. No kidding. I thought they were just being posers. Didn’t realize it was the same company. Looking on wikipedia, it is actually a part of the Saints Row series.... Go figure.

Booooo!!! I was already googling it before I realized you were probably making it up.

This is great! It feels like it’s a console that figured things out.

You know, it would be funny. I can completely imagine Game of Thrones taking place on a fictional world that balances upon elephants standing upon the back of the world turtle.
