I say this with love, but that sounds like addiction and I hope you will seek out therapy in the future, or at least consider resources such as healthygamer_gg

- Dalewyn 2y agoI keep a journal of my spending there since I know it can be addicting. I usually spend somewhere in the neighbourhood of $2000~$2500 annually on them overall, which sounds like a lot but actually isn't when averaged out. As hobbies go I feel it's on the cheap side; I spend more just on groceries and gas each month. The spending comes strictly from my entertainment budget, for obvious reasons. The "leftovers" from my purchases truly don't bother me since I'll use them later anyway as I buy more.
- immibis 2y agook but that whole amount of money is a scam you're paying to scammers
- Dalewyn 2y agoA scam implies an element of deception and malice, which is not the case. The games are clear in what they sell (particularly Fire Emblem Heroes after they got burned once by the players). I am acutely aware what I am buying, and what I can get with them. I am happy with the experience the games provide me as a whole, else I wouldn't be playing them for the better part of a decade straight and paying them my money. So no, the games I cited aren't scammers. You are welcome to not like the business model, but calling them scammers is unwarranted.
