I had an argument with a guy who was in a shared friend's discord server about this. He was adamant that, if somebody spent too much money on a game, then it was all their fault. Despite me going over several (clearly manipulative) tactics, all he said was that people who fell for these must be stupid and that they deserved it
Yeah later on he was kicked because of other (Similarly dickish) reasons
I mean....
The unfortunate reality is that both parties, the customer and the game company, are culpable and both share blame
Oh hey its the victim blamer. Mods deleted our discussion.
