I dont understand the NMS flex.

My take on this is that I can’t even come close to believing that people drop 500 dollars in a game that only lasts a year. If you do go ahead enjoy yourself. What the heck we’re all different so what we do with our money is no one’s business. The only way I spend and extra couple of dollars on a game is if it has a lengthy dlc that can only be obtained by being bought. In this game though having the choice to get a card for free in my opinion I have no desire to drop real money when I can use it for other games or to save it up.

My take is that if you have a disposable income and you enjoy the product then go for it. Don’t let anyone else sway you

Yea NMS people are the equivalent of “blue collar” people in the real world that are so bitter that they had to work hard to get something. I understand that pride in yourself is necessary to compensate for what you don’t have financially etc but there’s no need to put others down for it. The ones that spend [censored] loads on the game might not have spent their money in the best way but its their money to spend. I spend money on the game when I really want a player not to flex the team I have but genuinely enjoy having that player on my team. I spent about $2000 on the game last year won WS a few times had all the players I wanted to play with and saw no issue with it. Over the course of 12 months I spent maybe $150 a month or a little more depending on if there was a stub sale and at the end of the year I counted up and realized how much I had spent. In retrospect it seems like a lot but I enjoyed the game last year enough to do so. Could I have spent the money better, yes. Did I want to,no. I collect sneakers and spent roughly the same amount on a new pair of Air Jordan 1s when they come out so to rationalize it for myself it was the equivalent of buying a pair each month for a year. So for me that was something that could be lived with in my perspective because I wasn’t broke after doing this and yes I “fed the micro transaction monster SDS” but at the time the game was enjoyable and I love baseball so I got my monies worth. This year is another store I bought the $100 version maybe spent $150-$200 on stubs and the game hasn’t really been fun so I tried stub flipping. Once COVID-19 caused numerous people to be stuck at home it got a significant amount more frustrating to turn a profit so I just gave up. For now I’m sitting on 270k stubs and until there’s a player I really need I doubt I’ll spend anymore on this game. It has become pretty bad in RS on DD almost unbearable for the average player.

@SchnauzerFace said in I dont understand the NMS flex.:
This game needs way more boobs
Play in Miami, perhaps the rich lawyer guy will have one of his mermaids flash the pitcher again

Its just pride of accomplishment isn't it? I am proud that I completed the collection without having to. I don't mind that other people spend to get who they want. Not everyone has the hours I have to play the game to the point where I could make the collection just from rewards/cards selling. So to each their own, but not going to say I'm not proud of accomplishing it either.
