    You have a fascination on how other people spend money.

    Good thing I'm smart enough to easily make the 60 bucks to spend, right.
    You find it smart to throw away money. You're just so busy mowing those lawns so you can throw away more money. So many lawns to mow, so much money to throw away, it must be hard for you to sleep at night. God you're a genius.

    really?
    Hasn't someone in the grocery store ever told you about a deal? Were you appreciative? Or were you like "fuck off! I like paying more money for less! IT'S MY LIFE! I'M AN ADULT!" That's basically what this is. It's horribly inefficient to use your 90 boost on a character 5 levels away from 90.

    You don't need to Fathom it, there is no reason for you to fathom anyone's financial decisions.

    Doing so only makes you an arrogant self-righteous douchecanoe.

    It is not your responsibility to fathom it. It is not your responsibility to judge it. It is not your responsibility to give a shit about it.

    So, what you're saying is that their goal is to do everything for free, make no money and go out of business? Fuck, what a great businessman you'd turn out to be. Why hasn't anyone come knocking on your door right now?

    So if I go out and spend 1 million dollars on a leaf. Nothing special about this leaf mind you, just an ordinary leaf...you wouldn't judge me for that? Not even a little?

    because everything is in black and white. Gotta wonder why there are no hate threads about other companies, or why in all the years up to this moment blizzard never ever sold levels. or hell. Said anything like.. THIS?

    How much effort does it take for me to make 60 bucks? Oh, you don't know? Exactly. How can you claim it to be horribly inefficient when you have no clue on how much effort I put in to make the 60 bucks vs the effort from leveling?

    Nope, what people do with their money is their choice.

    Just how I tell people to fuck off if they start hassling me about spending my money on video-games I would not expect any less from someone else if I tried to hassle them.

    What the fuck happened to this thread?

    Furthermore, have any of you taken an economics class?

    The straw grasping continues.
    Using an example is not grasping at straws.. do you know what that means?

    saying "everyone does it, so it's okay" is not okay, was the point I was trying to make. didn't need to grasp at that straw.

    So ok, 1-90 is understandable a little but 85-90 even after the experience nerf? Why even bother to play the game at all then? That money could have been gone to something much better.


    All i can say is grats blizzard, you always find ways to reel the money in.

    I dunno. Decisions that others perceive as sensible can seem strange to others.

    You shouldn't care about why someone bought the expansion anyway. No need to try and call him out on a decision that has 0 impact on you. OP is a dingleberry.
