Omega Emote is Tasteless

[Axxion]

Are you okay?

he must have cabin fever

Life is a big bowl of sweaty lemons. You want lemonade so bad, but you're too tired and depressed to make it. Instead you just eat the lemons. You resort to crumpling up stevia packets all over the barely peeled sad citruses in your sad little salad bowl, and you eat it. You eat slowly while you're crying.

And you tell no one.

R U OK?

The extreme life trials you have right now will soon dissipate. Focus your energy productively onto real things you can change and don't be tricked into wasting that energy on virtual things you can't.

Look after yourself, look after your house, but above all keep your chin up.

"i hate that people can get an additional emote for buying a statue from a game they like and saved money for"

I can literally see mogstation bought items on your character profile on a game you pay 15 dollars a month for, which in of itself is something a lot of people can't afford to do. you are either baiting or are just that upset that you don't own something. touch some grass, comrade, take a breather.

how are you even still paying per month when you apparently lost your job on a pandemic that hit almost a year ago, shouldn't you be saving money instead of paying just to waste everyone elses time...?

A permanent OUTRAGEOUSLY EXPENSIVE emote that does not desist after a use is a tasteless thing to put out in the fan base.

It sends a message that some players are worth 220$, and that other fans are not. It was already controversial when they had the non persistent emotes tied to a statue, but now they have this gaudy status symbol.

Isn't this how life works in general? I mean, Some people have a ferrari and I dont. That statue and emote does not affect my gameplay at all, nor do I mind people having it. If it were an impediment to the gaming experience at all then this would be a valid concern. If people wanna look awesome and have the means to pay a lot of money to do it then I don't see a problem with the creators of the game pandering to them. This is as long as the game isn't pay to win, and if it were so, I'd let my money do the talking and stop playing, and even then it's within their rights to make it that way, I just wouldn't be around to play it. You need to look deep within yourself and acknowledge life isn't fair. It's a fundamental truth that you need to learn to find happiness despite this, and if you are asking this question you owe an explanation to the people that are dying to play this game but can't afford the subscription either. How come you can play this game and they cant? Why is it fair you get to play and they dont?

What does this mean?

[DrWho2010]

this tired argument comes out every time there has been a statue/emote release. basically the answer is "suck it up, buttercup".

Happened with Odin, happened with Shiva, happened with Omega, will happen with the next statue.

While I would like the chance to have the floaty emote without paying 200+ bucks for it, I'm not sure why you think being melodramatic about it helps. Well.. I mean.. you're you and you obviously haven't changed since any of your other posts even if your recent GM action post started relatively sensibly..


But yeah. Sometimes things are going to cost more than you're willing to pay, especially a luxury item in a luxury pastime. Bummer that. Anyone for some Bluemage spell unlocking?

Just let people enjoy their emotes they payed for and move on. I'm not getting the statue because I hear the quality is not as good as the previous ones and for that price tag it isn't worth it to me, sure I would love to have the emote but seeing other people using it isn't going to make me mad.

Gotta say.. watching someones vid about the statues and emotes and the statue itself looks like mass produced mid tier junk. I would be hard pressed to pay 70 bucks for it and feel good about it. Shame, the other ones were pretty nice.

"I had bad luck and now i want the world for free" is such a great wibe...heck i should start to demand a private island everytime i lose my job or don't have money. It is hilarious how entitled some people are.

And seriously if you got hit so badly by the pandemic a statue and a emote should be the last thought you have...guess that kind of thinking is what brought people into their situation in the first place. Maybe start looking for a job instead of ranting in a forum. Life isn't fair. The people who make the statue want also to be paid. SE is a company and wants to make money. And if you want the statue then work for it like everyone in this godforsaken world also has to work for their shit, we normal folk at least obviously.

But i want also to be helpful here so i share a exclusive trick of mine with you. It's a bit crazy i know but maybe it works also for all you poor fellas, stop buying unhealthy snacks and softdrinks, drink just water and the money you save you put aside for whatever reason. I call it...saving money! And hey! Maybe you can buy the next statue with it.
