no its simple logic. theres nothing to suggest that the united states will ever have a socially conservative revolt against decisions made by adults that affect nobody but themselves. in fact its a push towards privacy and anti-government interference in peoples personal lives that even conservatives usually support, but we realize their intense bigotry prevents them from following their own ideals regarding this matter. to suggest that society or government will for some reason force transexuals to not transition, or implement some kind of repression is at odds with the evidence of our own history and the practices of the entire western world

no, condemnation of discrimination and violence. the same thing that happened with blacks in the 60s/70s and gays in the 80s. i mean these are repeating patterns, im not sure why its so confounding for morons. it doesnt matter if you hate gays or women or trannies, these people are not going to suddenly stop being protected by society and laws just because you read on the internet that the illuminati is behind it all

I know a mother and daughter who actually contact television news journalists themselves whenever they face a tiny amount of drama. The daughter has lived an insanely sheltered life, so she's just copying her mother, who does it just for attention. It doesn't pay off most times, of course. But every time it does, even if they just get a newspaper story instead of something on TV, it drives me crazy with anger. What really irritates me is that the daughter tells me about these stories being in the news with so much pride, like she's saying "look what I accomplished" instead of "I done a good thing".

Thing is, /v/ and the internet at large think that this idea of virtual economies and in-game transactions are all a slippery slope into putting a price tag on everything and anything just for money.

The truth is there's no telling where the gaming industry wants to go with this, especially when they try to add this kind of thing into Single Player games to get more money than the initial price/pre-order.

Though I whole heartedly agree with your point. No matter how much information we gather and shove in people's faces, the average Joe and Jane will do whatever they want with their hard-earned money, we have no power over them.

>>386300630

>>386298943

>>386300970
In that case, that's a problem of these consumers existing that enable said practices. You or I can never do it, but horse armor will still be bought by someone else.

This is the thesis of the current vidya industry. AAA companies are thriving cause they have the most retarded consumers buying this shit. Consumers use to be smarter back in the day when there were more genres targeting more niche crowds who were better educated. When a game didn't do what the consumers wanted, they got low sales. So why do you think every company goes after the easiest audience?

>>386300532
I suppose the problem is just the matter of paying $500 real life dollars for it. That's half a grand for a bunch of polygons you'll never wear or touch.

>>386300786
>Thing is, /v/ and the internet at large think that this idea of virtual economies and in-game transactions are all a slippery slope into putting a price tag on everything and anything just for money
Except it's already clearly happening.
Expansions were questionable but accepted in the end. DLC was iffy. Horse Armor showed that a price could be put on anything, and microtransactions have shown that companies want to put a price on everything.

the problem is that new AAA games have been stuck at $60 for long, long past when they should have, because consumers refuse to pay more, but production costs have gone way up. the money has to come from somewhere. why not idiots who dump hundreds of dollars on dress-up?

>>386301490

Production costs are all virtual. Unlike a car that is dependent on advancing tech, a video game is never more advanced than the first Pong. Only the supporting tech, the console or PC, are the advancing tech, but they never grow the production. Only the devs do.

Exactly the ideal. And I see no problem with it. It's capitalism, people want to dress up their characters, Devs need to make back the game's budget and make profit? It's a win win really.

I mean you can't raise the price of a new AAA game, that would be ridiculous. Imagine what Australia would have to pay just to get a new CoD game?

This is how ignorant you are of video game development. The costs are whatever the dev wants them to be because a video game is just a bunch of 1s and 0s, the cheapest thing you can buy. Having 800+ staff that dont even do much on the game eats the cost of a project, not the project itself. Thats why inflation doesn't affect the budgets of today. Companies just use it as an excuse.

This analogy makes precisely zero sense, nigger.

Just...don't give them money. Don't buy cosmetics. It's really THAT simple. They don't even affect the gameplay.

Instead, sell your crates on the marketplace and your video games literally start paying for themselves.

>>386301721
>>386301959
It's not, you can look at the marketplace yourself and see that there are offers to buy it for like $350. As in, if you put the skirt up for that much it will instantly be bought.

>>386306531
>Instead, sell your crates on the marketplace and your video games literally start paying for themselves.
This. CS:GO is f2p at this point, but only if you play it for at least 10 hours. Of course, you could spend those 10 hours doing anything else instead

>>386307045
>you could spend those 10 hours doing anything else
At that point you might as well not play video games. If you struggle to put 10 hours into a game you probably shouldn't have bought it to begin with.

>>386307159
What if I play a video game that isn't CS:GO? That seems like a better use of 10 hours.

>>386306531

The entire model is toxic though.

I do exactly what you do, nothing that drops for me has any value, I don't give a shit and just sell it for free credits.

But if everyone had this mindset the entire little micro-economy would collapse. It's built around idiocy and spending exorbitant amounts of money on something that's not only cosmetic, but something few people even notice.

Not to mention that this is essentially a new form of monetizing the mod scene, what would have been free skins and customizations are now being hawked on an artificially scarce commodities.

It's bullshit through and through, and the driving idea that sells it is people being placated by the free credits they're getting by selling goods they don't want.

>>386307370
Then don't get CSGO.
>If you struggle to put 10 hours into a game you probably shouldn't have bought it to begin with.

>>386307421
>At that point you might as well not play video games.

>The entire model is toxic though.
How? It allows players who sell the marketplace to get money back for more video games. It allows players who want specific cosmetics to buy them if they really want to waste their money on that sort of shit. It allows the devs to get more money with minimal effort, ensuring the longevity of the game, and putting the design team to work while the rest of the team works on the game itself.

Really? I never played csgo obviously but I did play tf2 and crates are worth nothing in that game and only the keys are worth anything. Is it different in csgo? How many crates drop and how many would you need to sell to get the 15 bucks back?

>>386295107
Ain't that bad, comparing expensive TEXTURE FILES in CS GO Fuck Yourself.

>>386307836
Back when I played the crates were worth 30-40 cents at times and dropped fairly often, you also get weapon drops which are sometimes worth multiple dollars

>>386307836
Depends on the crate, CSGO crates range from 30 cents to ~7 bucks because some are more rare than others.

>>386306531
This. Sell crates, cards and what ever the fuck. I have bought several games for these items.

>>386295712
Ugggh why the fuck do people have the freedom to spend their money on things ugghggh

>>386304090
It's okay when anyone does it because it doesn't factor into the gameplay, nor does it rob much development time because, past the initial setup, all the work is done by designers who don't have shit to do most of the time anyway.

News channels/websites/papers have a tip number/email adresss where you can share a story and they'll pick it up if they find it newsworthy. Other than that, reporters are expected to be able to find a story as well so they'll always be on the lookout and keep their ears to the ground.

There was literally a thread last night about this very same skirt. OP pointed out the price in a Steam chart.

Whether the """author""" took it from here, or that the OP had taken it from Leddit, the point remains the same; they get paid to browse the popular websites and shit out articles using content other people have created.

Just look at pic related. Kotaku used a PvP Bloodborne montage that a guy on /dsg/bbg/ made without his permission, so he changed the video thumbnail.

Hat/loot crates were a mistake
