Videogames are just complex slot machines where you always lose. Prove me wrong.
>>
you're an idiot

You're thinking about arcades, anon.
>>
>>321197845
thats the stupidest thing ive heard in a while. slot machines have a possiblitliy of winning money. no video game does. youre an idiot. thats like saying dvd players are just really stupid libraries or some shit, it just doesnt work

lol, someone's mad.
seriously. you're all wasting your time with these things. if youre going to have a hobby you might as well have one that makes you money. videogames are complete time-vampires.

>>321197845
what
>>
>>321200114
A hobby that makes money is just a part-time job.
>>
>>321197845
isn't life just a slot machine where you always lose?
>>
>>321197845
The burden of proof is on the person making the system though...

>>321197845
My dick is a time machine and you always win.

>shiny flashing lights
>usually built around some kind of gimmick
>bright sounds
>reacts to the input of the audience
>provides a convincing illusion of risk/reward

only difference is that with a slot machine you have a slim chance of winning something for the time you waste...

a videogame just sucks as much time and money from you as possible before being sold or no long supported by the creator.
>>
>>321201230
Sorry anon, this comparison just doesn't work out. If you wanted to be much more particular about it, then apply it to f2p games that focus on using real money for RNG drops.
>>
If I enjoy spending that time, I'm nt wasting it.
Above all, videogames are supposed to be fun, not to provide a reward
>>
>>321197845
the point im trying to make is this: stop wasting your parents, friends, family's money on toys and get fucking grown.

first of all, it's my money, and pirating is always an option
and you can use "stop wasting your parents, friends, family's money on toys" for any hobby, you fuckwad
>>
>>321201448
I waste my own money on toys though, mi familia.
>>
>>321201671
well then you're just a moron. which is probably the best anyone can say about a gamer. good job being the top of the bottom of the barrel.

well b8'd

>>321201669
youre right, i can. and it applies just as well to this and my statement still stands. get. grown.
>>
I'm guessing it is safe to assume that OP is a retarded poorfag that have no clue what pirating is.
>>
>>321201821
Unless you're spending every ounce of the time available to you bettering humanity as a whole you're a complete moron, to be quite honest.
>>
>>321200114
Believe it or not I play videogames for entertainment you fucking souless money obsessed robot
>>
>>321201867
you clearly havent been to a casino in the past ten years. but that might be because you're not old enough to, so i'll let it slide.

>>321200114
>everything that doesn't make me money is a waste of time

shalom

>>321201928
lol no
>>
>>321202000
exactly. finally someone gets my fucking point. now how about we both turn this stupid thing off and go do something important :D
>>
>>321202169
Anon you just spent the last 30 minutes or so wasting time on a Mongolian poetry slam board, what do you have to say for yourself?

>that ad hominem
Slot machine themes don't count as storyline and characters, senpai.
>>
>>321202048
i guess some people are satisfied with their powerlessness. why be under heel and boot when you can be the heel and boot?
>>
>>321202292
it was my hope that i'd snap a couple of you out of your perpetual childhood. It looks like I have though, so It's been time well spent. God have mercy on the rest of you botched abortions.

Judging by your writing and tone , OP, you sound like a 16 year old teen desperate for attention, you just want to fool someone and tell them they got "trolled"
Nice job

leave and don't come back, fucktard
