    Why do people play those things. It’s clearly just a test how dumb we all are, and we’re seemingly failing it. People do play it. Things like that should net a total global sales of 3 or 4 and then be taken down a few days after release. But no.

    I want 80s gaming back, with modern tech and stuff.

      I just bought a CRT for my retro consoles. Its the best money I’ve spent in a long time.

          A CRT for gaming allows for the least amount of input lag. Not only that but playing retro games on a CRT just feels right.

            Oh boy, i was so happy when the first lcd surfaced. No more 2-people-to-carry and radiation of my eyes. No amount of nostalgia (i started with green monitors) will ever make me go back 😁

    Its characters cost as much as $63,000 in cryptocurrency, despite the fact that I’m not entirely sure what you can do with them once you own them

    My guess: what cryptocurrency was originally invented for; money laundering.

    That’s okay, you can drop any pretense of trying to actually make a game around your crypto scam.

    Congrats for banning two innocent customers for “security reasons” (apparently code for “your own incompetence”), that’s definitely the kind of thing you need to make your victims customers trust your shady bullshit.
