@pompousbaboon hey

@Oslo MGTOW That was a good read, thank you for caring enough to share!

What’s up guys

Thanks, i’ll read that later, finna do therapy.

I found a reddite compilation video

it is full or redpills

Huh, that was a much quicker read than I expected.

hey everyone, new guy here, howdy

Ahoy<:420:480186122325065728>

lemme introduce myself, I'm an IT guy and discovered mgtow some months ago

though, I dont think I ever felt any anger after taking the redpill, maybe I havent internalized the concepts of mgtow yet, dunno really

If you haven't been brutally burned by women, taking the red pill is a relief.

Like Xyc said, if you have come to some relatively close conclusions about women beforehand, understanding and coming to terms with female nature isn't much to get angry about. Most people seem to get angry that their whole life they have been lied to about women. Along with the fact that society doesn't care about you one bit.

yeah, I haven't been burned by women afaik, I think I was an incel before even knowing about incels or mgtow (i was always obese since my child hood) but I really was a white night. Hope I can improve my situation.

well then, gtg, see ya later

Why are AAA games upfront cost capped at around 60 bucks? Is there some kind of price control I don't know about?

Yeah, it's called "the market"

I'm watching game of thrones and it's like a bad fan fiction

3 queens and a rom com on dragons

Basically, everyone in the marketing team is afraid to go above the market price of $60 until someone else does it first.

Seems arbitrary to me, are fans just not buying 60 bucks games? Maybe there shouldnt be such a cap. Maybe would get rid of some need to go the microtransaction route.

over 60 bucks*

Isn’t it a shitty episode? I love how they betatize every man

@Nawalter Jizney yeah I'm not done with it yet but I already notice it

It’s subtle

There’s like two good scenes

@Heraklines it is. Back in the day, the cap was $50

Iirc, they waited for a whole new console generation before they raised the price on individual games

Plus, nobody wants to risk pricing themselves out of the market with the investment underpinning a AAA game.

@Xychotic It seems to that AAA game dev costs have absolutely skyrocketed, and that they are stuck between expectations of gamers vs productions costs. And every gamer is just mindlessly hating on microtransactions without acknowleding costs on companies. Not saying there isn't a some shady shit sometimes.

there's also a lot of administrative bloat involved in AAA games these days. Everyone wants their cut.

I'm on a short boat cruise with my extended family in Miami right now (not something I really want to do right now). The boat is passing by celebrity mansions. The boat's announcer is talking about each celebrity that owns their mansions. Some of them used to belong to male celebrities, but their wives divorced them and took the houses. Literally people appluaded on the boat that these women stoled houses with gynocentrism. What the fuck is wrong with this world.

Price controls breed inefficiencies. There is hardly any market that has similar price controls.

So much overacting in got rn

@Heraklines cars, houses, most markets do

Exact prices though?

I've never watched GoT. Too much drama for me

@Heraklines well, the price points I just referenced are literally orders of magnitude greater. But, yeah.

you'll see cars priced in class groupings around 40k.

houses tend to hover around 200k until the real estate bubble hits

@Xychotic True not saying, its entirely unique, and they actually do differ from country to country. Just look at Australia for example, but those price controls aren't goverment imposed or something. It's mostly interconnected gamers, internet makes this easier, since they are more aware about these things then average normie.
