This dude spends 100k on a mobile game and makes a video bragging about it, meanwhile I throw 20 bucks on a mobile game and I spend the rest of the week feeling like I ruined my life financially.
Lmao this statement is beyond truth. It amazes me how there are people out there dropping that much money on a game they will cast aside in a year or two. I hate when I spend $10-$20 cause I know I likely will only play it for a few months, if that even... Actually invest that money or give some to me bro. Give money to people instead of meaningless gems in a game.
yup. I bought a LoL skin ONCE and I've regreted spending that money for years. Can´t even phatom why this people spend thousands, evend hundreds on a video game.
If 20 bucks is financially destructive you might wanna do something else than sit on thos
$20 shoulnd't amount to your life's value. Might wanna re-evaluate your financial situation if this is the case.
worked up over 20$ lol damn.
He's not justifying it to us.
He's justifying it to himself.
agreee
Exactly!
I kind of wonder how he has this much money to spend in the first place (not just on Diablo, but in other games he's played). Imagine if he invested the same thing in Real Estate.
I felt the same exact way as I was hearing him talk ...
I thought that too.
His arguments were targeting his own problems with the game not ours.
This man single-handedly funded Diablo immortal
You underestimated blizzard greediness
And diablo 4s wages
Didn’t know Matthew mcconaughey was a gamer
Alrigh alrigh @@Psychonaut165
The fact that it’s possible to spend $100k on a mobile game should be illegal
this dude has somehow managed to become a paying actor instead of a paid actor.
lolololol
🤣😂
You killed me xD
BRO I CANT!
Underrated comment. Almost choked on my water laughing when I read that 🤣
This just proves the point that no matter how shit the scam is there's always a sucker out there who's gonna fall for it.
Diablo shit mortal, already made 6 million dollards in less than a week, there are a lot of suclers out there, a lot, that is why gaming is dying, no one want good product, i mean come on, i was watching overwatch 2 reveal yeasterday and gameplay is the same, the single player campaing the selling feature of the game, not appear, and the change to the characters, more diversity and inclusion, please, gaming is dead, is gone
Well it’s not a scam if the person spending the money knows what he’s doing I mean he knows he put 100k into the game and he kneels why he did it this guy is just really dumb for doing it and that goes for all the whale they no what there doing
Except it's not really a scam ... It's just really really really anticonsumer monetization *can't say bad because its actually working for some dumb reason*
not quite fall for it. That rude is simple fitlthy rich man. Made no difference spend some pennies on DI.
@@andreschmitz8729 sadge
45 min reaction for a 16 min video. Asmon really is a professional streamer
at 15 minutes he's already halfway through the video so he spends 30 minutes on the second 8 minutes lol
Nah a professional streamer would have a 16 min reaction for a 16 min video
@@id1550False, Reaction types are subjective. From person to person.
Asmongold made a good point. People want to be able to get to end game and play at the highest level in a reasonable amount of time without having to get a high paying job. For most people, games are an escape from reality. They don't want to have to grind in reality to have the opportunity to escape in a game. It defeats the purpose.
Also, games like these use tactics to take advantage of people's shortcomings and manipulate their brains to get them hooked and waste their money.
"Rich went 44-0 because he was a whale going against f2ps"
"Paying in this game doesn't give you an advantage over F2p"
This guy's not a clown, he's the entire circus
Another amber heard logic fan
LMFAO
I dont even think rich ppl will play this game. There are other things they can spend time and have fun.
Mostly poor and middle ppl who cant control his/her addiction will spend this much money and go broke.
@@hoothoot673 my dude, rich people don't see money how you see it, they just blow it away without care. Asmon is different cause he wasn't born rich
@@hoothoot673 poor people can't afford paying for a mobile game. It doesn't work like that.
This guy is proof that it really is easier to fool someone, than to convince them that they've been fooled
I get that it's an expression, but it has to be that way. Otherwise, you'd be convincing people that they were fooled when they weren't, thus fooling them and arriving back at the original statement.
Well said
it really boils down to him just having an addiction to spending and gambling. the game is literally just a worse version of diablo 3 which is 15 years old and doesnt require you to spend thousands of dollars to push content lol
@@TakashiAmanoOriginal he knows exactly what he's doing.. by tagging asmond, etc.. he wants his money back in attention
Did you even watch the fucking video? The guy paid at his own will because he likes the stuff, as well as every other mobile game he played. Stop making it look like someone is forcing anyone to pay for the game and it is some kind of ploy which every whale falls for. You are delusional.
The grind vs pay buffs are incomparable. It’s like a human and a saiyan. Every battle makes the saiyan exponentially stronger vs the human getting experience and being blocked off from zenkai boosts
Ok nerd 🤓
Can I just say that I love watching and listening to all the storys you have to tell and the reactions on other video's. Honestly besides learning a lot, Im really enjoying your video's. You earned a sub!
Imagine how happy Bobby must be to have these kinds of people defending Diablo Immortal and giving him 100k
Yup. Justification
not as happy as when epstein would hit him up
yup. 1 person who's spent 100k on a game drowns out the voice of 50k people who refuse to spend money on micro transactions.
@@Joseph-R and that's beautiful cos beggars and peasants should stfu
@@Joseph-R But that's not the question that will be asked at the next IB.
What will be asked is: "How much did it cost to make this "Game" and how much did it make in return?
If the later number is bigger (hopefully not by a small margin, fingers crossed there are enough gullible suckers out there)
stock price will be more likely to rise.
The fact that he said "invest" into a mobile games just threw his cred out the window for me...he's completely entrenched in the sunk cost fallacy
when one says he invested in a mobile game and gets gets out his fish name dictionary you know he is truly a lost cause.
He is investing actually.
Think like this:
He is paying 100k, for what?
To create a Twitch Audience.
Would you know about this guy, if he spent 30$?
No.
But because he spent 100k, not only we know about him, and him being a Streamer, but he also managed to lure Asmon into this scheme.
He would not Put a Target into himself if it wasn't for this, he want's the attention, that's the return of his investment, a Community.
Wanna know how much that is worth?
Way more than 100k, Streamers can make Millions per Year.
It's an Investment, a risky one, but a smart one as well.
And if he managed to grab Asmon, it's working.
Invest... And what do you get back... Fun? Well I invested in $10-$30 games on sale and got the same s*it, he sounds like a bad financial advisor to me.
@@raphaelmerino100 sadly, maybe. I just hope they dont stick around, cause hes boring af, and either a gambling addict or legit paid by blizzard
@@raphaelmerino100 That's a fair argument, and that may be the case for this guy, but for 95%+ of those spendng big money on the game, it won't be. It also might only work for this guy, I would argue, because of his underlying gaming prowess. Spending big on games doesn't build a big or loyal audience. Being excellent at games is what keeps people around. If he can move on to a game and be great without money, the crowd will remain. If he is mediocre without money, people will move on. Or he'll just have to stick to games where he pays to be great, and hope his royalties make it worth it. Most youTubers have a short career of success. Almost none of those I as watching 5 years ago I still watch.
"I spent $100k on pixels. Just like I spent $30k on pixel corn in Farmville."
- People who have too much money and don't know what to do with it.
So you've never spent money on any video game?
I got trapped into a pay per pay for hundreds and felt like a damn fool. This guy is completely brain washed, he must not have anyone in his life that cares about him, your friends wouldnt let you spend like that .
He’s got a family, makes enough and used to make great castle clash content for years and years, his money his choice
@@thesharkmethod the oil barren who pollutes the sea, he's got a family makes enough money and allows trucks to deliver food, his money his choice right?
@@Xapheion101 idk but a gamer that plays a game that has in game purchases which he wants to buy, why wouldn’t he
@@Xapheion101 if I’d have throw away money for these type of games I’d pay large sums too
@@Xapheion101I don’t support this man at all but i’ll say that’s a stupid point. Him spending stupid amounts of money on a game only harms him, not everyone else.
This guy right here is *precisely* the reason this game was created.
Facts. He’s just a tool
Once he said he had 6 figures in Clash of Clans i lost all respect for his opinions.
And consequently that guy is precisely the reason why OW2 is dead.
Blizz's profit expectation changed thanks to whales, and they stopped supporting OW2 PVE because of it.
@@DawnAfternoon lets be real. NOBODY relevant gave a FUCK about overwatch pve. They lost all the people with any sense when they introduced brigitte into the game.
Even if I was rich like Dana white I wouldn't spend $100,000 on a game let alone a mobile game
"That itch that mobile gamers have"
That is called addiction sir.
Yep
@@Garoslol probably because you are a PC gamer
Only mobile gamblers know what he's talking about
I mean gamers
@@teodorstefanov5103 i am a pc gamer and whenever i see unguarded shit (ingame) i can steal i get the itch.
It's like you took the words right out of my mouth.
Just look at pubg mobile. It's normal for mobile players. Mobile Players seems to have a lot of money compared to pc and console players. That's the reality now, like it or not.
I was afraid to buy a game for 10 bucks cuz i dont want to spend money on "worthless fun". Now this makes me wanna buy it
I’ve got over six figures, “invested” into it.. can’t wait until those investments mature
Hearing this guy's arguments legit make me wanna cry. How can someone be so disconnected from reality and shove 100k+ Dollars into a game. The fact that he says it's the "best" mobile-game he has ever played show that the bar for mobile gaming just isn't very high.
it kinda is, the guy's just been playing the trendy garbage that shows up in all the popular app stores instead of hidden gems.
Not surprising this scam is the "best mobile game ever made!" most mobile games are literally false adverts to trick you into watching other ads before you realize its a reskin of some generic shit heap crapped behind a giant ad wall and you delete the game.
The bar for mobile games is really really fucking low.
It's not even close to being the best.
There're tons of actually good mobile games that don't try to exploit you at any turn, including indies made by passionate people who got sick of these practices.
I can't preach it enough but o e of the best mobile games has to be magic survival, its what inspired vampire survivor and its a ton of fun
I feel bad because there is so much potential in mobile gaming that is lost to overgrown capitalism. Ghost Trick was a banger and it was a DS port.
this dude is literally everything that is wrong with gaming, wrapped in one unironic person.
The way he referred to his addiction as "The itch" made me incredibly sad. There are people who are paid incredible amounts of money to develop ways to exploit human psychology. It's sad man.
addiction is an illness
He is a person
@@griffgruffl1 not anymore.
He pays so that you don’t need to. Developers wont make games without people like him
The funny this is I got a Diablo immortal ad right after clicking this video. I love the algorithm
I wish everytime he said "bring us together to have fun together" you cut to him laughing like a crazy person killing everyone
Bro this guy did the community a great favor by doing this, he gives great talking points to use as evidence of how malicious this game is.
@@Karlach_ gaming has devolved into simple gambling. While other places in the world are banning games like this and loot boxes, at least it'll always have a home in the good USA.
He just mentioned 13 real life friends. He's gotta be pushing 40. Only douchebags and liars say they have that many real life friends at 40. Assholes can make an infinite amount of friends because they have zero standards. I've barely met that many people in my life who were worth being friends with. Most people are awful. Yeah, he might have a lot of friends but don't invite any of them to your house because a week later you will come home and all your stuff is gone.
@@Karlach_ unfortunately, this system basically means that meaningful changes will skip a generation every cycle. At least it seems that way considering the people handling out important affairs likely couldn't tell you what an address bar is. It's pathetic and the positions are far too profitable. Positive change shouldn't be reliant on the deaths of these old fools.
lol he could've bought a small apartment here in Eastern europe. He could literally provide a home to somebody.
@@jpxyUA sure, but money isn't destroyed by being used. It just changes hands. It's only wasted if it's not spent.
that fact that he said "invested" destroyed my soul. even if i take ALL of my wow sub payments, all consoles and games i ever bought, my entire steam account and every single skin purchase in league or hots together, i wouldnt even be close to 10k, and i have played video games for 25 years, basically 4-16 hours every single day. that guy is fucking insane
I mean if you put it that way. Blizzard should make more Diablo Immortal type games if they make so much profit.
You can check your whole money spent in league and steam iirc and you'd be suprised how much it is :D
Probably not 10k but it's too much if you think about it
must be nice to have 100k to blow on stupid shit. Guy's like this are so disconnected from the reality of the world. when you can blow 100k on a mobile game and then call it an INVESTMENT when you're getting nothing out of it is just sad.
@Konstantin Dahlin It's an investment if your goal is to make gaming even worse for years to come.
Dude, if i grab every spend i made nearly all mi life, not videogames everithing, i cant even be close he spend in that piece of crap, with sub par grafics, and i want to see what games he play i play mobile in the last what one and a half year two maybe
"There is no distinct difference between F2P and P2W", "The only way to get to the top end is to pay" and "The only difference is the P2W get better gear" all within minutes of each other.... The copium is unreal; like how delusional can one person be?
$16k is small compared to other mobile games. We got people spending close to a million on Evony: The King's Return
This guy and others like him is the reason why we are dealing with pay to win games.
They are why you get to play for free.
@@kaydens6964 Even in games where we pay subscriptions or pay full price for.
@@kaydens6964 its more like they destroy the games for as.
@@aevic373 The thing is, when games stop making money, blizzard abandons them, look at sc2 and heroes of the storm
No the reason is because greedy assholes at the top like to take advantage of guys like him
This is pretty tragic. You can hear the addiction talking, not the person. He feels personally attacked that it's being called out, not him specifically, but how he is being manipulated. Defending his supplier.
Everyone tends to be defensive about something they really like and have personally vested themselves in.
IM NOT DEFENSIVE!
Jk but seriously, you're right. Mobile games = addiction to p2w imo
Bingo!
Absolutely. As someone in recovery, this hits home. “Defense of the supplier.”
that guy is one of the reason why freaking one cosmetic armor set cost as much as the whole game itself
The only time I would defend pvp hackers. Gotta bring these people to reality somehow, like, he spent 100.000 on a mobile game. I know you cant tell people what to do with their money, but thats just like using 100 dollar bill to wipe your ass.
Man the damage the industry has done to this mans gambling addicted brain and the way he justifies it is actually so fucking sad to see :/ The world needs to catch up with gaming scams
The world needs to hear dumb people like you, to separate the sane people from them. He is clearly willing to pay and is able to pay for whatever he wants, because he is a grown man and can do whatever he wants with his life, because he enjoys something, I can see your jealousy coming off. If you define a scam as "well, there is a shop, where you can buy stuff, how could they come up with this multi-level insane ploy" then every single shop in the world is a scam by your definition. And, you are very clearly informed with texts and info for what you are about to pay for. I guess learn to read first.
Justifies
why do you have sympathy for this clown? He makes gaming worse for everyone.
@@keonkla I have no idea what you are talking about. The guy is clearly enjoying the game, he tells about a lot of people he knows regardless of how much they paid enjoying the game. Me myself enjoy the game, I'm currently ranked 1 in battlegrounds PVP on my server with battle pass and boon of plenty only ($15). If the game is not for you - don't play it, it's that simple.
@@user-mz1un7so9h COPIUM
This guy is severely disconnected from financial reality. Guess this is what happens when you have too much disposable income and forget or never knew what it is like to be paying the bills.
All you have to do is listen to his 15 minute speech about his "achievements", this mfer hasn't worked a single day in his entire life.
Stop living in his shoes. Sit back watch the show. Live your own life
It's confusing for me, how the hell people with mindset like this can be rich? Usually high income people are so efficient with their money.
@@MeltonCrest If he isnt lying, he wouldve played those games for 12 hours a day. He has definitely never worked.
@@Cakalank that's a lie told to poor people by rich people.
"You could be rich too if you didn't spend money on avacado toast"
that pause at 6.20 thought my screen froze haha
@10:15 "Never use the term you are defining in the definition"🤣
This guy is the ultimate tool. Love how he “invests” in these P2W games. How’s your equity man?
His ROI is nonexistant.
Its so good that he has to now stream on twitch to make money for his mobile gaming "investments"
@@thegoodrevbadandyarr4272 or...his ROI is kickin in doing this crap and calling out 99.9999999999% of the gamers who know immortal is trash
its pay to play not pay to win
Bro!!!! Im dying after reading this comment. But so true lol.
This guy is like a addict that's trying to convince people it ain't that bad.
Sad part is that these type of guys are ruining it for the rest of us, I don't mind to pay 60 bucks on a good mobile game and even a 10 dollar sub fee if the game is good, but having to deal with P2Win people on a PvP game, to hell with that...
He literally described it as an "itch" like he was talking about drugs. This child is just an attention seeker.
No he is lmao
Had a mate with a heroin addiction. The words he uses might be different but the logic for the justification is the same. Pretty sad.
He played castle clash :😭
Here for the CS 1.3, 1.6, CPL and CAL-I mention...Love it. The good ol days...oh and BG9
10:33 WHYYYY? HERE"S WHY lol that synchronized nicely
Every time that guy tells "I have invested money into the game" I am blown away. You do not INVEST real money into the game to just play, you're PAYING for content, not for financial profit in exchange.
very true. At the end of the day, you are not getting that money back.
If he’s able to trade and sell them I think it’s investing but yea you’re right
@@Bigbuddahgee he could sell it for 1/100 of what he spent 😂
Don’t you “invest” time into a game? I know people who have invested over a decade into wow. Time you can’t get back for a video game. How is that “better” than spending money. Saying spending money on a game is dumb but spending years is totally okay. Some people can’t invest that time or choose not to. Rather than put down what they do in comparison to what you do, you could see that they’re getting enjoyment in the end just like you
Yeah it’s spending not investing.
"he went 44-0 because he paid money"
"paying money does not give you an advantage over free to play players"
pick a side homie ahah
I love how Asmon just say "oh, so he used a conputer before"😂😂😂❤❤
Imagine exchanging $100,000 for strings of code.
Bitcoin
The "itch" he referred to is the psychological manipulation to spend money. Computer games are commonly less predatory, but that is, sadly, starting to change.
No. It was like that, since MUDs. You guys are diluting Youself. Been blind for too long.
Yes and people like that guy are the reason for those changes. if nobody would spnd on Diablo Immortal the game would just die within weeks
Less predatory? They are mostly predatory.
@@jamesmaybrick6750 well if count all the game that has been release esp pc/console gaming then yes it is less predatory even with dlc and by some extent mtx. Mobile gaming especially gacha base are pretty much predatory since from the beginning, always have been an issue it is just it starts to bleed in to the pc gaming sphere ever since OW start the lootbox train.
This is not really a computer game so don't really see the change. This is a mobile game.
It is amazing hearing people say they "invested" money in microtransactions
I was feeling sick in my stomach everytime this guy started to justify and defend the game's monetization
if diablo immortal is literally making you so stressed out it makes you sick maybe it's time to take a step back
@@wearecoterminous You should stop trying to twist things to try and defend this game.
He said he's getting "sick" when he hears people who spend real life money on power in games and call it "investing". You "invest" into microtransactions just like you "invest" into a scam coin.
Sorry if my original post was poorly written. That is exactly what i meant, I am not playing this, just following the stories, and today I watched Asmond live when he saw this one.
Idk, haven’t spent a cent. Whales paying for game development for me
@@Tooamazin yeh like if you invest, i think normally you'd expect a return maybe you lose maybe you gain but you get something back. with this you get nothing you can't get the virtual items back to real money atleast not legitimately
it's funny watching this right after the one where he can't play anymore.
Lol same. He said all these fish can play together. And he can't play with anyone hahahahahahahaha
The amount of money in question is insane. Even the most heavily monetized computer/console games are a drop in the ocean compared to this.
Spoken like a true addict. It's like listening junkie to tell you that spending all his money to drugs hurts no-one and he is having the best time of his life. Oh, and the dealers are really the good guys... you just don't understand because you don't know how to have fun.
This is actually so accurate
it's like talking about weed on reddit. nobody can seem to admit that it's actually less healthy than simply not doing it at all, and even if you argue the perks of a sober mind, suddenly everyone "knows a guy who's super rich who does weed."
I've seen more than enough addicts to know this
You don't need to draw a stupid line between drug addiction and it. It's bad enough on it's own. It takes advantage of people with mental illness.
Another thing, the drug dealers and the drug addicts aren't the 'bad' OR 'good' guys. They are just people like you and me, under different circumstances. Some of them are bad, some of them are good. All of them are bad sometimes, and all of them are good sometimes.
@@jakemurray4346 Well said mate
Companies should just increase the Pay to Win. Like, make 'endgame Soft Cap' free to play players can reach in 1 month cost just $100k then the Hard Cap fully Geared cost 10 million dollars. And then the top endgame, cost 1 billion dollars. I would like to know which 'Whale' reaches those numbers and is still proud and defends the game.
We look at these Whales as big spenders but ultimately, in the grand scheme of things, they are spending just a little money. And it doesn't affect them. Like regular Americans spending 10$ in a game. It's little money.
I respect that this person seems honest and genuine, they're just too deep in the rabbit hole and have completely deluded themselves. Like they're not lying about anything, they're just inhaling massive amounts of copium
Any cult requires believers. You also get this kind of behavior from people who invest in speculation.
i used to watch him when he played castle clash, a lot of mobile games rly do require a lot of money to get ahead but idk why people get mad abt it sm
pretty genuine soul from what i can tell lmao
@@joivs4956 JT has been a big spender for a while now. I'd watched him from so long ago, even have JT added as a friend on castle clash
@@4head527 yeah always has been bro, i wonder if it makes him profit from yt lmao
I'll never feel bad about spending a bit of money on a game I like now. Dropping $20 now and then isn't even on the meter
I just spent $30 on pizza and feel guilty as hell about it, then there's this guy
Why guilty, you sustained yourself till the next day or so off 30 bucks. It didn’t go to waste… you’re not gonna go get food from the store for free.
This is genuinely pretty sad, watching a guy describe how a genuine love for playing games with other people turned into a gambling addiction
yeah this is the first person that has defended diablo immortal that i actually respect and i think is a legitimate person who isn't trolling. obviously i disagree and i think he is overlooking a lot of questions people have, like the famous "but y" question, but he's not a total dingus.
@@Ryzot what is there to respect from that dude?
@@thatanonwholurksmoar7386 True, he has more money than us and he's blowing it, therefore he is unable to provide any respectable opinion. Because what?? Jealousy?
@@xNatheeeGamer A whale isn't allowed to have opinions. They ruin the fun of everyone and play insane mental gymnastics to justify it. Jealousy is the least of everyone's concerns.
@@thatanonwholurksmoar7386 its like respecting a drug addict because he's honest about drugs being addictive. Like, we know that thing is addictive so we're tried to make you understand that these things is bad for you
This guy is Blizzard's target audience. They love people like him who will dump hundreds of thousands of dollars into a game and defend it. This is why mobile games are heavily pay to win. It's because people like him dump so much money into it and defend the decision to abuse players like this.
It's like that person you know who's clearly in an abusive relationship that they not only never leave and keep going back to the abuser and defending the decision to do it.
It's called Stockholm syndrome; and this guy has it in spades.
Nailed it and that’s absolutely insane. The saddest part is there are assholes out in the world that can totally afford to do this.
not stockholm syndrome lol
They are the sole reason this is happening. Gg
This is well written, well done. 100% agree
True
It creates a class system of video game players where you cannot experience the best person the funnest person of the game unless you gamble or spend a ridiculous amount of money
I bought a weapon for $4.99 for a mobile game that I was in love with, when I realized that the blade degrades and I needed a repair kit to save it for ONLY $.99, I called it quits and never looked at it again. Happy w my Steam non freemium library.
This dudes arguments is basically "I enjoy buying my way to the top and being better than everyone because of my wallet." literal vile consumerism that the mobile gaming market preys on. This dude is the perfect player all those mobile games BEG to have on their game.
you mean payer, the perfect payer all those mobile games beg to have on their game.
do you have pubg mobile on your phone i need to play 😃 PUBAHG MOBILE / FORNYTE?
PUBAH G
its a status, " i like the game, i can buy what u cant with my hard earned money, if want to buy this, you should work hard too"
Pay to win? More like pay to not play the game.
I never understood why people want to pay to skip content, pay to not have anything to play for. For what? So you can feel good about killing someone who had 0 chance against you? And somehow in ur lil inbred brain you feel better then that person? By what logic may I ask?
2022, still monkeys around me left n right. And they ask me why I'm depressed in a world filled with inbreds.
Asmon is no better. He loves to brag about not gambling etc, but fails to see that's exactly what he did with Lost Ark. He bought materials to gamble. Then he continued that with Diablo Immortal. And he fails to see that he is apart of the problem, then goes to talk about he did it for the stream like it changes anything at all.
Something happens to a person when they become rich. And it's very ugly.
It shows their true colors don't it.
this kind of people is pathetic honestly xd, it's the equivalent of buying your girlfriend instead of getting one through a real connection
I feel so sorry for that guy. The way he is trying to convince himself that this "big boy" behaviour is something worthy to be proud of.
Hes going to use this as a write off because he is streaming. Probably for realized profits from an actual business interest.
He’s a content creator. He’s not missing that money.
I don't to me this is what being a man child is and if anything he ain't running out of money if he is throwing away money like that.
If he does blow through it hopefully he ends up homeless and hungry.
Lmao imagine feeling sorry for a guy that can spend 100k or more on a video game. It mean he isn't poor and 100k isn't mean anything for him lol why would you feel sorry for him, do you feel sorry for every rich man that spend million on a car or some mansion that too big for 1 person to live in ?
he never said that, you are inventing shit
Check out the mobile game last Shelter Survival. You fight by setting up your troops and heroes in a "apc" and you can upgrade your apc parts. A full set of the highest level parts for 1 apc (you have 5) costs $100,000. There are thousands of bases that have spent over $100,000 on upgrades. There's probably a dozen or so million dollar bases. Lots of big money players in the game though (including at least 2 billionaires). So they spend $100,000 like normal people spend $100
Asmon kept sounding like Shaggy to me lol
Keep in mind that he HAS to defend diablo immortal because if he doesn't and the game dies due to lack of players from poor word of mouth, the 100k he spent on it is essentially worthless...which it is.
it's like taking out a mortgage on his house for 1 NFT, then finding out it was worthless yesterday
@@thahirshibu5042its worthless the moment you spend it.
@@Threat_LvL Not if you spend it on real assets. Not in a computer game but a piece of art or a house or stocks in a company. Then it just becomes more valuable over time due to inflation.
Facts man spent someone's house on something more worthless then NFT's lmfao
I read that last line in Anton Chigur’s voice
I died when he used the term "Invested" into a mobile game, like it's provides some kind of return
He's literally streaming the game and making videos on it he's getting money back still horrible though
Who knows? Maybe Blizzard paid him to make a video like this 🙃🙃 I won't even be surprised. There's no limit to how low this company can stoop anyway.
@@TeritotheLegend you think his audience is donating/subbing 100k+? Doubt that.
As someone who works in this industry, if you think your mobile game is an "investment" you're a massive tool and total sucker.
@@TeritotheLegend investment provides return that should be more than money that was put in. not spend $100 and have $1 as return. that's not investment.
the guy has given them nearly 100k and is fine with killing the same boss over and over again... I hope he has never complained about a movie he has paid to see
I could lift my entire family out of poverty for half the money he's spent on a video game.
and there are some bleeding hearts who think this guy is a victim. Nah he is a pampered man child. hope he blows through so much funds he becomes homeless .
Can't believe these parasites ruin it for other men and woman with self control.
yea, but then get more money just like he did
@@Ghost1170 So, your advice to everyone is to struggle more than everyone else. Totally rational :D

amen brother
The sad part is when you gamble in the casino you have an actual chance of becoming rich even though it is a small chance. But when you gamble in these games no matter how lucky you are, you're just gonna win a virtual item that is gonna be nothing when the game eventually shuts down. The only thing you won is a few moments of dopamine rush by winning virtual items.
The FACT that he just COMPARED being the highest rank in CS GO a 100% skill dependent game 0% pay to win with Diablo Immortal a mobile game that is 100% pay to win, just shows how out of touch this man is...
Lol I wrote the same comment before reading this. And if you watch the whole video this guy is so entitled and ignorant as a rich boy, he perfectly underlines the stereotype of being rich in a capitalist world, he just doesn't get it, to him everything is fine, he doesn't see any problem :)))))
if you pay over 100.000$ for a video game, no matter how rich you are, you are not only out of touch. in my eyes this is completly stupid. i didnt know it is so easy to rob rich people - wtf

"It only cost me 50k to get a maxed out character - it's not much compared to other games."
I've maxed out multiple characters in multiple games for only $60 each.
This guy just isn't part of reality.
Imagine guys maxing out chars on all these different games for 50k-250k each.
Exactly. If you have two brain cells...
i've maxed out many characters in many games for exactly free, unless you include the cost of the game.
I know right :D you can even max out characters for much cheaper than that. And imagine that you can actually even play the game while doing so instead of just opening boxes and other random popups while your wallet is crying.
$60 each GAME, not each CHARACTER.
I hate how mobile games are so efficient at making money with so little effort. Those companies spend $1 to make $1000, while a good company making PC single player games (like Horizon Zero Dawn, Elden Ring or Sony Spider-man) may have to spend $100 to make $1000.
I beat Malenia Blade of Miquella without spending a dime and I feel accomplished
He lost his argument the moment he said "I invested." I think people like this don't have a problem because they feel like the money they spent is the accomplishment. They "invested" the money, so they get the greater reward.
Yep spending money IS their reward, gets the dopamine juices flowing. Every gambler ever is all about spending against risk to feel good.
They are too afraid to pronounce the word wasted so they said invested.
He literally invested because his stream are growing up which can return his money in long term...and yes he is growing bcs he is ultra whale in Diablo Immortal. Deal with it.
@@Jookeerrr11 I dont think people will be interested in the long run. He is not charismatic, diablo immortal probably wont be a very popular game for streaming. Also he just started streaming, no way he is gonna make 100k back this year.
If you invest in stocks you can sell them again. Maybe at a loss but you can sell them again. You spend money on D2I that money is gone forever.
"I simply enjoy spending ridiculous amounts of money to show my rank vs being ranked by skill." is absolutely a mindset that should seek professional help for so many issues...and the companies who prey on people like him should be held accountable for their deception and greed.
He isn't a victim, he is being irresponsible with his money.
@@ChristopherGray00 that's how he got here, but he's still a victim because he is an addict.
Agreed, no arguments needed.
yeah lmao, almost sounds like they want to make the game work like real life
What deception? There is no deception? Are you going to close down every liquor store so normal people like me cant get any liquor?
I hear this guys arguments. I also get needing some form of revenue when your game is free. But there is a difference between that and spending THOUSANDS on a game, it shouldn't have to be this way. The problem with gamblers like him defending this is that not everyone can do what he's doing and still support themselves and live in a house! People will ruin themselves because of these mechanics and defending the mechanics is synonymous to defending the need for people to ruin their (financial) lives because they are sensitive to gambling or have low self control. That is just morally wrong! This is not about "oh i'm having fun so what gives", but standing up for the people that cannot protect themselves from gambling.
He keeps saying "invested" like hes getting a return on that money instead of just lighting it on fire.
If you spent 100k on a mobile game ofcourse you are gonna say "It's Not That Bad".
sunk cost fallacy
Dude I could never put that much into any game
Seriously though if you've spent over 100 on a game, you're an addict. 100,000.. shit you could have bought a Ferrari to share rides with your family for decades. Bought a family trip for 10k and got lifetime memories for EVERYONE going. Or paid most of the college debt for two kids. Down payment on a house etc. This is the DEFINITION of SELFISH. Got nothing but bytes to show for it and only an experience you can share by yourself.
@@Garoslol Thing is, a gambling addict at least has a chance to win money back. You wont get any money back from DI.
@@saveyoutub A few hundred (or even 2000-3000 if it's over a long time) I can justify, if that game actually has content, and you're spending on the game itself and not to gain some advantage. For example I've easily spent 200-300 on WoW just on expansions and subs in about 2 years, or around 120 on FFXIV in a year, but I got thousands of hours of fun out of it. The difference is that I was paying to extend my playtime and not to reduce it, and it was over longer periods of time and not in a week.

"Me being a pay to play, how does this affect the game of a free to play player?"
I will tell you.
Because you pay insane amounts of money for the game, you literally incentivise game makers to create games exclusively made for you. You incentivise game makers to add monetization to everything.
And this isnt even just mobile games, it clearly isnt, we have seen how this has been creeping more and more into PC games.
It used to be that if I bought a game for 50 bucks, I had a game, with everything in it at my disposal, where I could play to unlock achievements, often in the form of skins.
Then they started making skins pay to play only. Then they started adding customisation just to increase the amount of payment ppl do.
And its obvious why.
If you pay 100k on a single game, just think how many copies at 50 bucks that is. You singlehandedly pay the same amount that 2000 other players would spend on a tripple A title.
That means any player who drops 50 bucks on a game only pays 0.05% of what a single whale pays.
Or to turn it around. 0.05% of whales pay the same amount of money as the entire rest of the playerbase. Why on earth would any company care for the rest of the playerbase, if they can instead try to get more whales. Double the amount of whales and you get 50% more profit. And for most games that only means to get a few hundred or thousand whales into the game.
So it very much so affects the average player. Cause games companies would rather build casinos for ppl that dont know what to do with their money, than to create fun video games.
Especially as a lot of people never had this type of money to spend on games in their entire life. I have like 100 bucks a year to spend on video games. And these insane purchases from people that have too much money are the reason why those 100 bucks are increasingly worthless. I can buy less and less games, and get less and less content in the games I do buy.
And this is just the systemic issue behind this bs. The fact that these types of games systematically take money from children who literally cant afford it pushing entire families into financial ruin is the cherry on top of all this nonsense.
I think you should comment in his video dude. We all pretty much know about this.
Agreed. Last part though is somewhat irresponsible parenting. There's plenty of options to restrict children's ability to spend within app and play store.
Is every computer gamers no life like you ? Instead of writing a big text on youtube how about put this effort in school ?
yeah and it will become a nice lonely world...this simp prob enjoys it
Absolutely spot on!
As soon as I hear that someone "invested" money into the game I write them off as delusional.
If you're engaging in doublespeak right from the start, its probably already too late for you, the game companies got you.
If you buy shares in blizzard sure.
I watched that dud's vid response to this video. Most of the games he plays are Blizzard games. I'd almost think ge works there.
@@dubstepXpower I actually have them on my watch list, not that I'm going to buy any anytime soon. Was curious about how far they might drop with all the negative things surrounding them. xD

6:31 Money only works if the people who do actual labor are rewarded for it, otherwise the thing crashes down
Nothing this guy is saying is making sense. It's quite sad, that corporations are looking down and smiling at what they been able to create. Just complete cash cows everywhere.
I absolutely love the word "Invest". You have used 100k to find some sort of happiness in a game. The jitter in this guys voice shows that he knows this is incredibly fucked up. its an addiction and this guy is trying to justify what he did. PC gamers want to buy a game and have fun, maybe buy a few skins throughout the process. We like to use skill and theory crafting to get better. 16 Days since launch. its costing this guy 6250$ a day to have fun. let that sink in.🤯🤯🤯
His voice comes across a little shaky... Then at 7:55 listen to how He says "buy 'em".
he sounds like an alcoholic or another kind of addict, i agree. its a kind of rambling in the voice i heard before
yeah i thought absolutely the same about "invest". hitting the copium pipe hard
Came here for this. Every time he says he “invests” makes me want to see his stock portfolio. That $16,666.00 he has just sitting in his account is worthless 1s and 0s.
I have no experience being a whale but i feel like he's chasing some sort of high like he had from competitive gaming.
I like how this guy trying to explain why it’s not a problem just shows more and more why it’s a problem.
Yeah all he had to say is you don't have to spend a dime. You're just paying to skip the grinding. That's all it really is. It's not like it forces you to pay to climb or rank up.
could always get a switch for the airport and have all the d2 you want
This guy's life is "if you aren't spending on mobile game, its not normal"
"I'm a gambler" "get that itch" dude just inadvertently admitted he has a gambling problem with this video which is exactly why he loves the game so much, he doesn't even realize he has a serious addiction thats being 100% exploited by blizzard, I honestly feel bad for these people I was a drug addict for years and blizzard is exactly like the dealers that would keep pushing me away from getting clean...😔
yeah this whole diablo immoral situation is just another name for your typical drug dealers feeding drug addicts for profit but worse because the world governments doesn't treat this threat seriously like how they treat drug cartel.
@@kukuhimanputraraharja8084 absolutely right, ODing when it comes to gambling addiction isn't as cut and dry or obvious as say heroin but it can be just as harmful, it more looks like someone losing every penny they have because they literally can't stop until they have nothing left and taking their own life as a result because not only do they at that point have nothing and no1 left but they can no longer feed "that itch" they have that they feel was the only thing that brought them joy
Mate, there's no dealers that are pushing you from getting clean lol. What do they do? Rock up at your house and make you smell the drugs? Sounds like a good way for them to get a quick trip to the slammer. It's actually hilarious watching people comment on drug abuse equating it to microtransactions pretending they actually know anything about either, if you want to pull people's heartstrings do the obvious and true thing, which is; these systems extort the mentally ill. That is a fact. That is concrete. You don't need to draw a stupid line between drug addiction and it.
He looks and sounds as if he’s itching for his next dose.
He obviously has money and is a happy gamer so quit hating.
The moment he said "invest" instead of "pay" was when I knew how far the deep end he's gone.

With modern game streaming you can literally do that if you have a decent signal or good wifi. Just pull out the phone and stream whatever game you want to play, minor latency isn't a big deal in a game like diablo anyway.
Just bought MH rise with the wife and it's been a blast.
That's what I was thinking 🤣. I paid like $8 for diablo 3 on the switch and I can get all his stuff for that $8 but in like a week of casual playing
I'd like to see how good he would be if he didn't have the pay to win power. My guess is his idea of playing his class is run it up the middle. No tactics or awareness just run in.
