It's like buying a tiara for your fetus, before you even buy a crib.

ALSO, MICROTRANSACTIONS = DLC.

Yeah that's what I was talking about. I have no problem with this. I mean, I won't buy any of it, but cosmetic artists and riggers aren't the same people who do level design and shit.

If you want to show me someone selling, like, an expansion for $20 on an early access game then I'll be incredulous with you. But that link is just typical bad business. No reason for Valve to get involved banning it or whatever

The problem is that THE. GAME. IS. NOT. FUCKING. FINISHED.

That's the problem. Every single nanosecond spent working on DLC/microtransaction shit is being STOLEN from the people who paid into the Early Access model.

This sounds personal. Who hurt you?

Nobody, in this specific situation.

See, this is a thing called EMPATHY. And a sense of justice, outside what I stand to gain, personally.

I believe people should be called out for doing shitty things, just in general. This seems to be an entirely alien concept for a lot of folks. I find that disturbing.

Your attitude betrays your passion. This level of anger is abnormal for the subject of cosmetics in early access games, even for empathetic people. I give both time and money to charity and I'm nowhere near your level of angry and emotional over cosmetics.

Whether you'll admit it or not, something happened to make you this emotionally sensitive to this particular issue. I'm curious what it was

Believe what you want. I'll have the satisfaction of being correct, either way.

True ignorance is the ability to look a contradicting reality in the face and declare your own correctness anyway. I hope one day you get better at learning from your experiences
