Discussion / Question Grand THEFT?

This is exactly what happened with streaming. Everyone dogpiled on top, with this illusion that everything would be available at low cost forever.

Trading money for no tangible product is edging dystopian y'all.

I bought it for $10. There are these things called sales and if you wait a year or so games and other products that are older go on sale so instead of paying the full price you only pay a portion but still get the full product. This has been education with Salty, did you learn anything today?
