By the way, I have a question for you unfortunate bastards that happen to be located in Australia.
How the heck do you cope with your internet?
I'm currently at my mothers'. She lives in the middle of nowhere, and thus there is no broadband option. Instead she has this "wireless broadband" service over the 3G network (supposed to be 4G, but as I said, middle of nowhere), where there is a 'generous' monthly quota of 10 GB. Which covers about 500 visits to MMO-champion. Needless to say, I spent that the first three days. And I've been forced to buy 'cheap' 5GB data packages at a bi/tri-daily interval ever since. Frankly, this summer vacation home at my mother is turning out to be pretty expensive.
Now, I figured I could do something else than spending my days watching HD videos on youtube. But one by one my games just keep disappearing. Hearthstone got a major content patch last week. WoW got one today. Even that game I am playing on steam got a major update (though I downloaded it anyway).
So, from someone used to unlimited internet, how the heck do you cope? Why aren't there riots in the street? I am half-jokingly thinking that I could start my own ISP and make a generous profit by just undercutting these telecom bastards. And that's only half joking.
