)
Slightly less shocking if it's divided for four years.

Three-four years of non-stop boosters, a (nearly complet) collection of all BPOs and skins, stockpile of over 100 omega boosters and some spare AUR.

Was I stupid? You can answer that, and I probabaly know 99% of your answers What?

If I have to find good things about it, it saved me from SO many nights at the club boozing, probably saving me far more hard earned cash (even at a rate of single night out a week 100 each saves 20 000Gé¼ for the period of four years....)

One thing is sure though: from the experience how the game developed and the visions reached, I will surely not be spending that kind of sum on Valkyrie/Legion2/Whatever.
Especially the inability to fix bugs is the key: Some very basic issues retained for 3-4 years, which is unforgivable. Pretty much everything else is.

PS: What the heck I'm gonna do with all those Omega's????

Was this your first free2play online game?

Either way, everyone thanks you for funding the server maintenance.

BARAGAMOS Kinsho Swords Caldari State 488	Posted - 2016.02.04 02:03:00 - [15] - Quote It was your hobby. People spend money on hobbies. End of story. If you have remorse for some or all of the spending you made a mistake with that potion. If not then money well spent. No need to ask us. You know if you feel like you got the value you expected from the game. If you did it does not matter what anyone here says, and if you don't then you have learned a lesson for next time. There will be other games, that's a guarantee. As for the Boosters, looks like its time to make some new friends. Just save the ones you need to boost to the end and sell the rest to run officer until its over or give them away. That's really the only options other than watch them die with the game.

The mantra of EVE is "never fly what you can't afford to lose, and by lose we mean have 3-4 more of ready to go in dock". The mantra of DUST was "don't deploy what you can't afford to lose 20 of". The mantra of RL cash is, " don't blow the rent money on fun ". If you could afford that over 4 years ( not unreasonable ), and the family and bills were good and sorted, then don't stress about it. If they weren't then learn to budget better in the future. Shrug. It's your cash and your past time buddy. Don't let anyone make you feel bad just because of the round number.
