Why can't people afford $30 for EA and instead beg?

Mate i live in a european country and the average hourly wage 3.5€
which is basically 3,70$. When your rent is around 400-500 then yeah money is tight :/ |

" I situations like this, I'd be more worried about eating and getting my needs met instead of a video game. I understand the OP. If you're asking for 30$ to play a game then most likely not everything else is so okay that you should be worrying about playing a FTP game early. I've been in a situation where I've had to pawn many items just to afford rent and enough food to eat every other day, not once during that time did I consider spending money in a game. And if someone had given me money, I'd have used it wisely, not on a game. |

In my opinion the ppl who can't afford to spare 30$ or whatever it is in they region to pay, they shouldn't play the game, but try to make some many instead. I've been down the hole with money, I didn't had any money left after I payed all bills, what I did? I got another job, didn't had any time to play any game. But I had money to pay my bills and for food. And don't tell me that there is no job to do, there is always something to do, its about what ppl are willing to do for what they want. But sadly some ppl are willing just beg..

They don't work but also don't want to fomo. PoE 2 is super duper hyped game, maybe like the most hyped game for years, they rather beg for a chance instead of fomo. That easy.
Person who work can easily buy this game, don't come at me with bs reasons. I live in one of the worst countries economic-wise. I was gonna buy the cheapest pack for 30$ regardless, it's expensive but i make money, i rather don't buy a lot of games and buy poe only. But they done regional pricing and I bought the second pack for 27$. I paid the same amount anyways. Those people who beg could pay for the game but they don't work so they can't. Why they don't work? Most of them don't work because they don't like it or something i don't know. | |
" You are correct, yet u didnt want to try to beg for a free key assuming u had everything else covered? Now I'm not saying to go to everyone's PM and asking them for a key, just throw it out there in the world and see what happens? I think that's aight. I asked/replied on giveaway thread about 8 or so times before I lucked out and someone gave me one. Also... the keys come with in-game currency and cosmetics, most people that had them had them as extras, its not comparable to money or $30 price forgetting the 300 points that came with it, I would say. And who knows, maybe playing PoE 2 at launch boost your energy so much that the next month or so u bear eating dirt if it comes down to it. Some broke people do this even in competitive play with prize money. |

Could you confirm the difference between asking and begging in this context? I am fortunate enough to be able to purchase the game for myself but during my college days or even right after graduating the struggle was real. I remember throwing my name into the proverbial hat for free key giveaways like this too. But I didn't quite consider it begging.

i had an invite in my email/messages without buying the new packs so i'm good but i get it...
the game was always said to be free to play so ppl arent in the mindset to pay to play ;) some will buy the 30$ pack for it, some will wait for release, some will ask on forums, it is what it is. |

I hate the begging too , it actually disgusts me.
If you cant afford 30$ then you shouldn't get to play , its as simple as that . [Removed by Support] Last edited by Markus_GGG#0000 on Dec 6, 2024, 12:07:31 PM
