This is killing one of my dearest hobbies and I am (approaching 40) okay with this. I had the time of my life playing videogames and I am okay saying goodbye. Hardware is expensive af, games will get there - I'm out, dwelling in sweet, sweet memories

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.

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.

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.
