Funny way of saying “half of Gen Z are not falling for the typical consumer spend spend spend trap”. And as a millennial I say good for them. About time large chunks of people see the consumption driven economy game for what it is.
So you’re saying people without money don’t act like they have disposable income? Fucking science!
Won’t, or can’t afford to?
Especially video games. Honestly as a casual gamer I get it. Games are expensive and they are a gamble. I’ve bought games in the past and played them for half hour and realized I hate it lol. I rarely buy games now, especially if it’s not a franchise I already know and like, because I can’t afford the gamble. If I do I buy a physical copy so I can sell it on.
At least with streaming services you can check and know there’s a few hours of shows you will definitely watch. It’s still tol expensive and I’m cancelling mine but it is less of a gamble than video games.
I know many people are against this logic but you can pirate things as a demo and buy them if you find them good.
Thankfully demos are coming back. At least that’s the trend I see with indie titles
Thinking about it a bit more, some AAA publishers also are bringing demos back too
