    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 feel you. I pretty much exclusively play 80s and 90s games.

      You want some fun that is modern, somehow ancient, and beautiful? Oh, and challenging, but if you persist it is very rewarding?

      Cuphead. I fucking love that game. I play it and replay it and play it some more. I have waaaaaay too many hours in that game on Steam and on Switch. I think it’s the only game I ever got all achievements on.

    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.
