The ones who buy every sports game. The one who just pick up a yearly shooter. To them, it's like buying a pay-per-view match or a concert ticket. $70 for a couple hours of joy. They walk among us. If anything, we are the minority. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 1 child comment replies: [–] brb@sh.itjust.works 4 points 3 months ago amogus permalink fedilink source parent [–] boonhet@sopuli.xyz 3 points 3 months ago I forgot they even make games still. I haven't ever bought a FIFA and the last Need For Speed I played was...Shift 2. And I'm a car guy. After they ended the Mass Effect trilogy, I've not seen many compelling releases from them. permalink fedilink source parent
