i played a lot of wow and it's a fucking awful, unfun game that retains players using aggressive psychological manipulation
rare mounts and titanforged gear keep that game in business

It's fucking awful and you played it "a lot"?

Why, so you could claim deep knowledge of the game on message boards?

To be fair there are P99'ers who do that too....get sucked into parts of the game they hate (usually high-end raiding), burn out, quit, then in their resentment proceed to hang around the forum trashing the game and anyone who keeps playing it.

Yes, well, usually the people who keep playing are getting some satisfaction out of it, at least. A sense of accomplishment. They certainly don't have the opinion that the game is actually awful even while they keep coming back to it.

You are aware of the manipulation and do consider it to be just an awful game, but kept playing for some reason?
