The obvious micro transaction cash grab?

Seriously? You REALLY don;t see the difference?

Honestly? I really find that hard to believe.

They sell JUST short of the amount of points that they know people need. This is NOT standard operating procedure. How you cannot see why this is offensive to customers is completely beyond me.

There's a reason I don't buy those things too. This logic works both ways, sadly.

And you think just because you don't, others won't either and the companies will collapse?

I said no such thing. You're no longer contributing to the discussion. You're just trying to argue semantics and bait people into strawman arguments. It's plain to see now.

So you would feel better if the difference would be larger, so you get to save up lower leftover gold? quite the logic you have there Mr.

Name 1 game which has a microtransaction system that lets you buy the perfect amount of "premium cash".

All of them, every1 of them are designed the same way. Just not with full numbers like 10/20/50 etc. The model is the same.

Well what kind of excess are we talking about here? Because with POE's pricing scheme, you're left over with $4.50 for something that has a $5.50 value. That's an excess amount which is over 80% of what you needed to spend. Do other games force you into spending that much excess of what you want to buy?

I will repeat this until Sikab's thick skull is penetrated by my logic. If you need smaller words to understand this statement let me know.

Yesterday the stash tab pack was $15, today it's $20. That's called price gouging.

What you just did is called strawman argument. It's trolling and you're being reported because all your responses are anymore is misconstruing everyone's points into something you're able to argue against. We've laid it out flat what the issue is and you're still trying to say we're arguing something we're not. You're being childish and have already been asked to leave the discussion once.

Almost every OTHER post is made by you, and you're one of the like...5 people I've seen in 10 pages that says their pricing is right. Please, go play the game and stop trolling, or I will point a moderator to all of your trolly posts.

Do you have nothing better to do than troll here and hurt GGG by convincing people not to spend money?

I clearly stated that I was prepared to spend (and have, in truth been excited about it for months) and put my card away when I saw the obvious scam prices. It saddens me that GGG stooped to this low, and it further saddens me that people like you are already trolling the forums twisting people's words and giving GGG a bad name.
