I initially did not get this, because most of the games I play aren't microtransaction riddled hell.
Ohhhh, now I get it!
Yeah, same here.
I'm playing Skyrim at the moment and my first thought was that that "thought" was about vendor stores in RPGs like that one.
One of the rare showerthoughts that I like, nice one
The Outside is a pretty cool game. There are indeed shops there.
Just be sure you have enough money to pay the shopkeeper, the in-game justice system can really set you back if you try and steal items.
Recently most clerks are coded not to summon city guards, but random NPCs may start aggro depending on your race & class.
I don't like the recent patches, my build is very off meta and weak at the moment. I hope the devs will buff the support class soon
Too bad it is Pay to win and the Devs do not listen to the non whale users about problems.
Yup. Yesterday, I was shocked to find out my favorite soccer game of all time PES was completely free of charge. It is now called "e-football", but you guessed it, microtransactions everywhere. It did have a whole store for buying "coins". Me being me, I've just been playing for free and having the time of my life ๐
In Soviet Russia...
Showerthoughts
A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. A showerthought should offer a unique perspective on an ordinary part of life.
