  • Hm this is precisely the single part of the discussion that's personal and isn't contributing to the subject.

Theres no reason to continually post these excuses as to why you can't but it. Because if you really wanted to, you are more than capable of doing so.

    Just because I am capable does not mean I do not consider the pros and cons of buying L2, and right now the cons outweigh the pros. The fact that I want to buy it is a pro, but it is outweighed by about 10 cons I have mentioned in the whole thread so far, some less important than others.
    I think you need to be more open-minded and just accept that, although I love the game, I find it better for me to not buy L2.

    Yeah, I was low-key enjoying the drama, but if this thread is still on the first page, it should be because we're actually discussing the topic at hand, not a personal stand off of opinion

    That being said, I am fine having L1 tbh, as long as the game remains fair without me paying anything.


    Mind blown.

    So buying the game is no great shakes for you, financially. You *really* want to support the devs, but as there are people starving in Africa/wherever, you'd feel bad about supporting 'the wrong group'.

    Unbelievable. Keep playing for free, and allow us people who are putting money into this game to keep your game afloat.

    If you think its unbelievable then you certainly are hardly open-minded. Try being in my shoes, I think you'll find it very difficult.
    AND you took my quote out of context with all my other reasons, so a even a successful rebut on one of them (and an unimportant one at that) does not damage my position on this argument whatsoever. What if I told you I don't want the 'unlimited games' feature to tempt me into spending too much time in Subterfuge? And that is partially true.


    Lol, OK. I'll quote just one part then. This isn't out of context, it's quite self contained:

    --

    This is to me is unbelievable as I stated before. You have the money. You don't support the Devs because they aren't as 'worthy' as other causes such as hunger, world peace, immigration or whatever.

    If we all did this, the devs would disappear, the game would disappear.

    Ok, sure, I'll admit that I worded it badly. I will communicate my ideas more accurately in the following sentence:
    I want to support the Devs but I think that, for me, it is morally unjust to do so. (And forget about Africa - I'm sure you exaggerate at times)
    So how is that?
