At which point, you rather quit gaming and use your time and energy in the real life. That way you can touch your achievements because they aren't just numbers in a SQL database.
- eru 3y agoIf you make lots of money, and keep it at the bank, your achievement might very well be recorded as a number in a database. (But with the distinction that you can withdraw and spend that money.)
- DeathArrow 3y agoWhen you play a game you trade your time to make other people rich. When you work you trade your time to make you rich. That is the most important distinction. Would you buy you a Lexus or help someone else buy their second yacht?
- pests 3y agoYou can play games without committing any sum of money though.
- DeathArrow 3y agoBut your presence in game attracts others who will do some spending.
- eru 3y agoThat argument only works in multiplayer games.
- pests 3y ago> just numbers in a SQL database This is what breaks most games for me. Once I see the gameplay loop, I know I'm just playing spreadsheet optimizer behind the scenes.
