I'd still be pretty salty about those things. Regardless if it's physical or digital. I did work for them. I do enjoy them.

I don't care if you don't enjoy what I enjoy, and don't find value in what I find value in. At least I have some empathy in what other people work toward and hold dear.
I actually do have empathy for your position, and trying to help you avoid something I already went through in another game. I played Star Wars Galaxies for many years, I put in a lot of effort, loved the game, had issues but I over looked that because I enjoyed it. Managed to unlock Jedi and put time and effort into that. Then... they gutted the game with something called the "New Game Experience" and completely destroyed everything I had worked very very hard and long for. I learned the hard way that putting your life tears and massive effort into a video game, is bad for you mentally. was just trying to point you in a direction to avoid the same trauma. chances are I enjoy a LOT of the things you do, I just view them from a different perspective.

lack of empathy? your call of course, but I dont think not agreeing with you is showing a lack of empathy, just a different viewpoint.
