It's kinda why I play Magic: Online instead of doing FNM/drafts, despite the highway robbery tax Wizards does on Magic: Online.

MODO tax.

I know right?

So blessed we are with those booster prices.

There is such a thing as having a hobby, and then there is such a thing like having at least a semblance of self awareness just saying brehs.

Yup. I play Magic the Gathering. I don't wear Magic shirts, put up Magic posters, own Magic figures. It's just a hobby, not an integral part of my hobby. If I ever start talking about the struggle of Magic players and talking about how, if you really think about it, they basically suffer the same discrimination as gay black atheist women, then I hope somebody throws my cardboard into a dumpster and set it aflame.

One of my tenants has a few Magic posters and shirts. No figures to my knowledge unless one of the recent sets came with one (is that a thing? I know next to zero about Magic).

I'm saying, it sounded like a good idea in my head. Then I tried to explain why I was about spend 600 bucks on cards that don't actually exist, for a format that isn't actually played and the wife gave me that look like...."Is this guy forreal right now."

There's nothing wrong with a little shame sometimes. When it comes to overdoing your hobby or interests there comes a point when it's too much. With moe that line pretty much starts at liking it period and gets worse as you acquire tangible crap.

What about shaming a woman whose hobby is nonstop sex?

That poster also pushes the limits of grammatical sentence construction. "This may be a bit of a derailment, but as an English teacher, I'm far more likely to judge someone as immature who fails to use apostrophes or capital letters, and I don't feel using a mobile device is an excuse as those devices are capable of producing proper punctuation and capitals." isn't a run-on sentence, but it's unnecessarily taxing to read.

Never Change GAF.

Quote

Having never played a Halo game, I was very interested in what bungie was aiming for with destiny, heck, their initial reveal sounded amazing

Quote

As more and more of destiny got revealed, it all sounded great to me, I was completely sold on the game. I read articles, I watched interviews, anything that was destiny related.

Quote

I get to finally play destiny.

I play it and at the end I am extremely underwhelmed by it. I pay no mind to it since it was only the alpha and it had a lot of work to be completed.

Quote

Fast forward to the beta, again I am ecstatic to play a more polished version. I only played the beta for about 10 hours. I was completely disappointed and saddened that this game I was excited about was bad. After the beta, destiny went from being day 1 to not buying it.

Quote

I still bought the game because everyone I know was and still are playing this game. I let the hype cloud my judgment. I didn't want to feel left out.

Quote

So who is to blame(?) for hype. The media? Gamers? And how hype influences people to buy games based on the level of recognition of that game. Is hype for a game a good thing or a bad thing?

yeah he's 18 or something. while i was joking a bit, a lot of the release hype (commercials, previews, etc) seem completely geared to teens.
