I will never understand peoples infatuation with playing games on their phone. I'm not talking about every once in a while, I'm talking about hours and hours every day.

^^^^ Guy has never mixed one of the chocolate-sprinkled things with a fish and seen the irrepressible chaos - near orgy levels - it results in.

It’s basically the same approach as OF. I can see how effective it can be for people without any sense of money. The game Arnold Schwarzenegger used to peddle set all of these in motion 15 years ago.
They’d start with the F2P, then try to lure you into a track. First it was an upgrade for 4.99, then 19.99, then 49.99, then 99.99. Once you were on that path it was almost a concierge type service because you’d choose clans. Unbeknownst to the user, the clan had game staff that would engage and socialize with you. Once that connection was made, they’d hook you with mandatory upgrades before each event. People continued upgrading because didn’t want to get kicked from the clans for failing to progress and lose that social connections they “built”.

After seeing this guy a few years ago, whenever I hear about someone spending that type of time/money; I just assume they look like ole Francis.
