Ah yes that moment when the email comes in saying a game from your wishlist is on sale. You’ve been waiting for two years for the $39.99 game to drop in price. Damn, $7.99, still too much. I guess I’ll wait a little bit longer till it drops further and I can afford it.
And that one game that’s been $24.99 for as long as you’ve wanted it, staring you in the face. Maybe someday, maybe…
I started removing games from my wish list when they would drop to insane lows multiple times and I would still not pick them up. 🙃
I got $4.36 in my Steam wallet from selling cards and crap. Its gotta cost at most, that much.
Look at this rich asshole showing off he has “treat” money
We’re all living the same life
You feel like… a Night Lord?
No greater happiness honestly. As long as the needs of my family is met and I can buy 1 dlc a month for one of my games I am GOOD.
If you can eat 1.5 meals a day and pay rent, you should really be spending your money on food.
There are other things you can do for fun that cost nothing like going for a run, working out, going to a library, borrowing board game or cards from the library to play with friends….
Other people have different needs from you. What if they’re dieting? What if they just worked a 10 hour shift and need to decompress at home? What if they’re disabled and can’t go out often? What if they don’t have friends?
Let’s not make a moral judgment here. There are far worse things to do than playing steam games like drugs, binge drinking, smoking, committing a robbery, etc.
Is joke
The first two increase your caloric needs though
back to work you go
thats what the game money is for
I think if i have to spend every dime on rent and food, i would just kill myself since at that point you are only living to work.
The downvotes are excessive, but if they have the disposable money to either up that to 2.5 meals per day or spend it on games, who am I to judge which they choose? (As long as they aren’t underweight or nutrient deficient) Many people purposely eat One Meal A Day…
There are games that cost like $2-5 on Steam
Unless you spend more labor-hours on cooking vats of rice and dry beans (or similar “low cost, affordable” options) and sticking to that exclusively it’s not going to meaningfully increase the meals you can eat.
As long as OP only has themselves to feed I don’t see an issue with this choice.
Not to mention there are plenty of games out there being given away for free. Civ VI (all DLCs included) was just given away a few weeks ago. Thing is good for hundreds of hours.
Also, cooking your own food is way, way cheaper than paying others to cook it. And if you cook larger portions, it doesn’t take much time to throw a meal you made yesterday into the microwave.
What when I have no DLCs for that game
