  • I mean, it’s true they have a lot of games that use predatory systems designed to trick you into spending more money than you need to. As well as games that are designed purely on capitalizing on base feeling of satisfaction of big number go up. But I feel like this is akin to suing casinos for their games having odds in their favor.

    How much of it is on the company, and how much on the player? Like where is the line? If a game is designed to be solely addictive with no other value or purpose, probably should not be acceptable, but how do you make that determination as a games value is different for every individual.

    Almost impossible to make a blanket judgement on this, and any legal precedent set by this lawsuit will be troublesome no matter which outcome.





  • In the end, nothing. I had a good solid 9 months of a job I loved, with decent enough pay. But then tanks to corporate execs laid off the entire IT team and outsourced it to a staffing company and reduced the size of the team from 100+ to about 8.

    I’m still there because I still need the pay, but now it’s just like every other garbage corporate job out there. Miserable and soul sucking.

    You’ve missed the point. There’s no expected commitment, they are both of the same mind. They both feel like it would be ok if it doesn’t last. It’s because they share the same feelings that they continue to work well together, and the relationship lasts.

    This is basically how me and my girlfriend’s relationship started off. No pressure, if it’s not working we’ll call it off and go back to being just friends.

    We’ve been together for 15 some odd years, and we have 2 kids.
