DotA 2 won because the cosmetic items that go along with the pack cost about 30 dollars in the in-game store. (I mean all of them look like shit but hey, apparently people legit like the Snowdrop set for whatever reason)

Well that's just sad.

2012-12-31, 04:14 PM #1066DeletedWell to be fair... look at league of legends and the money they make off skins (including money from me... :P) and the answer is "a LOT of people." Originally Posted by Soulus

Time = money etc.
There are like 8 skins max in the entire game worth paying any amount of money for. Originally Posted by Shamanic

People playing great games that provide stellar service without asking them to pay anything. That's like asking why people buy make up or hair products. We have faces and hair for free, why would we ever be so stupid to buy cosmetic items. Originally Posted by Soulus

Thanks for the link, now I have the game, doubt I will ever play it as I all I hear are people yell at new people all the time. Part of why I don't care for PVP or competitive games. Originally Posted by Shamanic

2012-12-31, 04:43 PM #1073DeletedI actually never understood the makeup thing as well. In my opinion, women are more ugly while wearing makeup, so it's funny how they pay for it. Originally Posted by Kittyvicious

Somehow it feels like they sale-recycle really often this year.
And there's still almost a whole week to go...The advantage of the dreamer is that he never has to face the chains of reality.

2012-12-31, 04:59 PM #1075DeletedIt was like this last year too. Games from Daily deals go to flash games, and out of there go to the voting poll. Originally Posted by Mistral

Fucking dumb that the Dota 2 bundle won over Portal 2 and CS:GO.

Probably because Portal 2 and CS kept going on sale for ages, and most people already bought them when they were on sale already.

Yeah that might be true. But Flash Deals were on a shorter "cooldown" and most recycling was the last three days. That's how I memorized it at least... might be rose colored glasses. Originally Posted by Soulus

Not that it really mattered, the other two choices only have been on extra sale 2-3 times this week alone. Originally Posted by Shamanic
