      3 shirts for 50+ or 60+ USD.... ya.... even with 10% off... im good... they look cool, but that is too rich for my blood sadly.
      50-60 USD for me, is food for the week...
      I'll stick to Kohls or Walmart and stick to like 10-15 dollar bargain deals.. when i Need new shirts... or wait Till the holiday where most of the gifts are clothing anyhow. xD

    • @Tundra1996
      @Tundra1996 Місяць тому

      Also, 10% from the 60 dollar one is like 6-8 USD off.... thats not a lot and drop it to about the price of the 50 some usd shirts, and same for the 50 shirts ones being only 5-7 USD off... so the lowest we gonna get here is about mid 40s for 3 shirts... and thats only for the "cheaper" ones with the discount... just thought people should know Roughly what they'll be getting off

    • @Tundra1996
      @Tundra1996 Місяць тому

      also, 40s for about 3 shirts is not bad, so to say, but its the ammount at one go. Plz correct me if I'm wrong, but it sounds like we have to buy them ONLY in sets of 3 is what your video is making it sound like. If I could buy it say, just one, and use that 10% off, it would not be so bad since for the shirts at around 50 some USD would be a bit over 16-17 dollars a shirt WITHOUT the discount, not bad, but not everyone wants to get 3 at one time, that adds up, discount or no

    It's seriously the problem with every company that has a Discord, most companies keep their Discord mods in the complete dark.

      @mnspstudioful 3 місяці тому +2

      Having a Discord isn't the issue. The usual corporate greed coupled with "old guy pushing buttons" method of "connecting with younger consumers" is the issue. They treat the Discord the same as any other PR avenue: if it produces positive numbers they're happy, if it doesn't they're unhappy, but regardless of the outcome they will never devote any real resources to it. They don't respect socials, they just exploit them. Once you realize this you have a much more fun time while trolling overbearing asshats in E2 and other fraudulent game Discords.
      "But trolling does nothing positive." Please point to the angle of attack that HAS done anything positive in this scam. Interviews? Almost entirely turned down until this. Government antifraud agencies? Don't care. At every turn, anyone that should have fixed this has refused. It's been years. At this point, they're lucky it's just trolling a Discord or comments section on an E2 investor (read: sycophant) rather than hacking their systems to infodump all their secrets. I guarantee, as cheap as they are on every other aspect of this venture, that their security is lax. It would probably be as easy as calling their office and acting like an IRS agent to get access to an entry point.
      But I digress, this is fraud. This should be prosecuted. Heavily. Years in jail to prove a point and put this constant stream of garbage devs pushing out garbage scams into hibernation.

    The fact that Shane, an Australian Citizen, is operating what is basically an investment platform that isn't secured would be raising red flags with ASIC, (Australian Securities and Investment Commission) one of the strictest government agencies to take on unsecured investments.
    Obviously no one would know if anything has been said to Shane that maybe they need to actually release something, but after silence for this long then taking on questions just feels like they are pointing out "see, we are delivering on what we promised." Which neglects everything that this "game" was even meant to be in the first place, a seemingly closed system that if it had just generated in-game currency that could be used in the game and not withdrawn would have been legal.
    I do also believe that our government has just implemented stricter banking policies that our banks can no longer facilitate transactions to and from "gambling" companies, but I'm not 100% positive on that one.

    "Our coin is up 22.3% according to this website." A website that includes shitcoins in their averages it is judging against.

That statistic is literally meaningless.

    See, their strategy is brilliant. They're waiting for the next (or next+1 or +2 .or ok maybe +42 generations from now..) AI to help them build the game so that it can be created on the fly as people interact with it.
    So a guy saying 'It'll be hippie stoner cowboys fighting zombies on surfboards" and another saying "It'll be raid shadow legends but like Ark with Destiny 2 architecture" will both be right. It'll be both games at the same time, thanks to AI.
    So if I think it's going to be like 4-dimensional minesweeper + Sudoku, with the right AI tools behind it, when I log in, I'll be playing 4 dimensional minesweeper-sudoku. You can be right next to me with your bong-powered plasma rifle killing zombies on surfboards. We'll be playing the *same game* but having a completely different experience. And we'll all be making life-changing money with their AI-powered 11-dimensional hyperponzi pyramid.
    And we all know there are no paradoxes in 11 dimensions. Everything works -- including ponzis that make everyone rich -- in 11 dimensions.

    This over selling and letting players make their own possitive narrative and speculation to oversell a game is not new... Im fallowing The developpement of star Citizen for the past 12 years.... i was there at the bigining very optimistic of the everything game... since 2020 tho.. i had took a huge step back... realizing.. that even tho they had 12 years... almost 1 billion dollars to date.... the keep reworking stuff that were already working well... or sometime to make them worst from what they were because there is so much feedback about eveyrthing in the comunity and no Clear focus from the company exept selling space ships.... No one knows even 12 years after the start what kind of game Star Citizen will be... ok there is a playable version of the pre alpha of the game... but they never been able to make it work no mather what they tryed.... to me Earth 2 is similar.. star atlas is similar its just that they havent raised enough money to conceive a playable demo that will not crush their comunity by the fact it will be so bad if they release something it can kill the company.. E2 is stagnant.. with their web browser game... demo of what they are showing always changing.... It also make remember me a bit of Chronicles of elyria... they showed a super hot demo when they launched the project to raise funds... they kept showing things years after years but it was always looking like it came from a different engine... differen visual style... when they finaly released something so bad after 6 years that crishes the project.. all those project are blatant lies.. even star citizen that tell us we will one day have that space mmo with tons of adventure running well... but in fact he just released a super broken tech demo where you can fly you super expansive ship and cannot even finish basic mission because everything is falling appart, in the coding.. in the servers... its so bad that for change any simple thing in the game they have now some much more level of complexity than a normal game because of the pile of spaghetti code over each other.

      ah yeah, what is the game it's supposed to be, actually.
      actually this is why the part i was waiting for was squadron42, at least that had somewhat clear plan on what the game would be and if that part was fun enough then okay maybe dick around in the mmo side if they figured out some metagame that made that side worthwhile.
      like for EVE online the struggle is the conquering, diplomacy, logistics of the alliances etc - thats the game. star citizen could be like wow for the game part with missions, bigger raid missions that force co-operation etc - but they have already promised that it wont be such an amusement park world like wow is - and then it would need to have an economy that's not broken if it's about that.
      like I don't think roberts ever decided on that part what the game actually was. I think that's core on why he couldn't finish freelancer and that he just lucked out with privateer1 being pseudo open world.

    I think one big reason why crypto games are so "successful" despite how awful they look and sound, is because the advertising is targeted and received by mostly non-gamers.
    It's probably comparable to you, as a kid who had little to no experience with any games, seeing advertisement / videos or generally gameplay of any games.
    They looked significantly more impressive than they were, and any sorta commentary on their gameplay was lost on you so they're able to make even something very mundane sound very impressive.
    And since video games are something that's been on the rise and still is, and crypto is this "mysterious new tech in its infant stages that will surely overtake the world by storm eventually someday hopefully maybe probably", it creates this really effective combination that is being eaten up left and right by inexperienced and impressionable wannabe investors.
