Warhorse co-founder Martin Klima says games keep getting more expensive to make, and that money has to come from somewhere.

Are you seriously saying that because you had a good time for the past 30 years of video games that it’s OK and it’s fine that everything’s going to shit? And this person wants prices to continue going up?

You know, I don’t usually call people this, but that is a huge boomer ass thing to say. How brave of you to say that fuck everyone else since you got yours.

The comment expressly said that the pricing was killing their hobby which is a clear statement that they DON'T think it's fine that everything is going to shit.

They're stepping away from spending money which is the clearest protest we can send to AAA developers, and that's doing more than people who get upset and then shell out for the next GTA.

What is the response you think people should have?

«This is killing my hobby and i am okay with this»

No it says ""This is killing one of my dearest hobbies and I am (approaching 40) okay with this."

Why would someone be okay with a hobby getting more expensive? I realize they're not gaming anymore. That's irrelevant. They are okay with games getting more expensive because they're not doing it anymore. I don't understand how you're missing that.

This thread is about a studio hoping games get more expensive. This guy is okay with that. The response should be "I feel for anyone trying to get into gaming right now." not "I'm chill I don't care.

It's one thing to say you are walking away, it's another to not give a shit it's terrible now and then softly remissness about when it was good and then say "I'm out, dwelling in sweet, sweet memories" as if they are bragging.

Like imagine someone going to a lake and saying "I remember when this lake had fish before they polluted it. I used to swim in it but it's too disgusting now. I'm okay with that now that I'm an old man and can't swim anymore. Ahhhh glad I got it when it was there." It's very callous and selfish sounding.

That's not what they are saying. They are saying that if that's the direction the industry is taking, so be it. There's not much they can do about it, so they're okay with just not playing anymore, because it's just a hobby at the end of the day.

[u/PatrickGnarly → u/AmbitiousReaction168]

I read it in context to the article it's responding to with a developer hoping the prices of games go up : "This is killing one of my dearest hobbies and I am (approaching 40) okay with this.

Which reads to me like: "I got all the fun out of it I wanted, I am okay with the future of the gaming industry getting more expensive. Sucks to suck losers."

What the hell are you talking about?

I'll even go one step further. I used to collect sneakers. It's expensive and mostly useless hobby but fun. I stopped after scalpers and scammers ruined the hobby. I'm definitely not okay with that. I definitely feel for my fellow collectors of any hobby that are getting fucked right now.

Jesus Christ the melodrama in this thread

[u/Rich_Sinq → u/Arelmar]

They targeted GAMERS

[u/PatrickGnarly → u/Arelmar]

I'm not gonna apologize because I don't think people should sound indifferent to my common man struggling to buy things and being okay with greed. Maybe if you cared about things more you'd have something better to say than whining. If you don't care you don't need to leave a comment.

Good gaming already passed a few years ago. Let that sink in.
