  • Well there’s also just a lot more games now, and even retro games that have been around are competing (I’m playing RE1 for example, bought it recently cuz I’ve never played it before)

    So I don’t think it’s intrinsically due to other life costs being high. When you have games like battlebit and palworld and lots of ftp games just saturating the market it’s hard to justify charging so much. People literally don’t have the lifespan to play all the games that exist and will continue to be created over time.




  • That makes more sense… they historically (culturally?) value jewelry over money due to the economic fluctuations that have occurred over time. Oftentimes they rely on precious metals for savings as it holds value better.

    Add to the fact that there’s over a billion ppl it stands to reason they may have accumulated more gold than most countries.

    But idk where fort Knox stands in comparison, so maybe USA has more gold even so.






  • I don’t see the value of space stuff right now and don’t understand why humanity has a hard on for it so much.

    Eventually, yes. For now, I’d prefer a focus on world peace and fixing the climate.

    THEN, once humanity is standing strong and our own earth is taken care of, move on to space.

    Counterarguments will not take into account the (im)practicality of space faring and what it can offer to our species. Sure, some of us may colonize mars eventually, but the billions on earth will still be on earth. And the earth is worth salvaging and in a much better place to salvage than fucking mars.

    I’m not saying we shouldn’t have research into space, just that we should temper the investment to match the return we get, for now. Going to the moon is not an example of tempered investing. Of course, that said, I don’t blame India for doing it. I just personally find it impractical and ineffective.
