This is a fun story

2018-10-19 10:17:57 UTC  

Black lives matter has a bot in a game called town of salem

2018-10-19 10:18:16 UTC  

Where we vote each day to hang people

2018-10-19 10:19:15 UTC  

to rid the town of Mafia and other bad guys who kill during the night

2018-10-19 10:20:44 UTC  

Now Imagine waht happens when the bot spams the only means of communication

2018-10-19 10:21:55 UTC  

it becomes a clusterfuck

2018-10-19 10:50:18 UTC  

That to, but everyone hangs the bot as soon as possible

2018-10-19 10:50:37 UTC  

So we hang the bot spamming how it wants more skins

2018-10-19 10:50:42 UTC  

more black skins

2018-10-19 10:51:39 UTC  

It even links to their discord

2018-10-19 11:22:21 UTC

2018-10-19 11:27:27 UTC  

man my sister in law spends so much money on some shitty iPhone game

2018-10-19 11:28:02 UTC  

at least Β£30/month

2018-10-19 11:29:21 UTC  

does she enjoy playing it, or is she just a slave to the gambling-grind?

2018-10-19 11:31:43 UTC  

I don't even know

2018-10-19 11:32:09 UTC  

the game is called "choose your story" and it looks like absolute trash

2018-10-19 11:32:47 UTC  

poorly animated teen drama visual novel shit

2018-10-19 11:33:42 UTC  

you can get a lot of VN crap for 30Β£ if you go to the pc market. but mobile games love to drain you of every penny they can

2018-10-19 11:34:37 UTC  

I'm not sure there's even a game, it's just multiple choice shit

2018-10-19 11:34:41 UTC  

mobile "gaming" is awful in general

2018-10-19 11:34:53 UTC  

most of it is shameless cashgrabbery

2018-10-19 11:35:36 UTC  

I'm a little confused what you would even spend the gems she keeps buying on

2018-10-19 11:35:43 UTC  

the only good games I've played on mobile have been PC game ports

2018-10-19 11:37:19 UTC  

im sure they have put in "energy" bars that slowly refill but for some gems it refilled

2018-10-19 11:37:30 UTC  

there's probably something there to timegate the content, yeah

2018-10-19 11:38:09 UTC  

to this day I dont think I have seen a mobile game dont time gate in some way

2018-10-19 11:38:37 UTC  

the pc ports generally don't

2018-10-19 11:38:52 UTC  

but can you really call those mobile games`?

2018-10-19 11:39:37 UTC  

most of the PC ports do want the money upfront so they have your money the moment you leave the app store

2018-10-19 11:39:49 UTC  

I've played the odd strictly mobile game that handles microtransactions in a way that isn't entirely gay

2018-10-19 11:40:39 UTC  

a lot of them also have you rate them maximum on the playstore for some kind of credit in the game

2018-10-19 11:41:00 UTC  

Leap Day is quite good, free to play, they make you watch an ad when you die, if you pay them to remove ads it also gives you automatic free checkpoints (otherwise checkpoints cost fruit that you collect and are manual)

2018-10-19 11:41:03 UTC  

making the rating system more useless than it was already, for determining what is worth spending money on

2018-10-19 11:41:58 UTC  

you can buy additional character skins (which do not change the game in any way) or you can eventually earn them but it's significantly slower

2018-10-19 11:42:12 UTC  

just overall scummy tactics employed by the developers
