Why are you redeeming!??

I don't know what that means

 

[KleinesSinchen]

I don't know what that means

Might happen to know this one.

My guess:
Tech support --> fake tech support --> Kitboga scam baiting videos

Often tech support or refund scammers wanted to get paid with Google Play cards. Kitboga manipulated his systems to show play.google.com a little differently (as well as banking sites -- quite some effort). Typing fake card numbers will result in the message "$500 have been added to your balance".

A scammer invested hours to get the "old lady" (he is using voice modification) to buy expensive gift cards... and then... suddenly she starts redeeming the codes herself convinced to send the money to the scammer this way.
Scammer: "No! No! Are you mad? Don't redeem the code! Give me the codes! Ma'am, WHY are you redeeming??"
Kitboga: "It's okay, honey, I'll send it to you. See: $500 have been added to your account."

The scammers desperately shout at the senile old woman, who adds one gigantic gift card to her account after another. They believe they are watching thousands of dollars (which never existed in the first place) flying away.

am I the only one who finds it weird how quickly most games drastically depreciate in value?

Unless you're the kind that buys a bunch of consoles, games etc. And keeps them sealed & untouched for at least 10~15 years.. Otherwise yes..

I mean even digitally too. after awhile it's less so a matter of if but when it will go on sale. even if they don't officially drop the price with sales most games may as well be half there launch price anyway

Yep, digital games are worthless for way too many reasons, including the inability of reselling, server and (time frame) availability concerns like pulling something out of store and you can no longer download it (, unless you back it up), reliance on online checking before playing a game, patches/updates etc.
The good thing is that at least some games are backed up and can be accessed pirated if all servers went down etc. Though not for games that require online for some reason..

I give up. I've never seen someone so incredible at dodging my point...
all I'm trying to say is developers don't seem to give a dam about setting how much they feel like the game is worth and sticking too it
anyways, before the mods get pissed off and nuke this. have a meme

 

[gudenau]

He

Have you heard of PGSharp. That Pokemon you saw is a Hisuian Voltorb, a Pokemon That Originally Came From Pokemon Legends Arceus

Ah, so you where cheating. Gotcha.

No, I don't know about cheating software for that game.

Was not my intention to.. But still, what i was saying was relevant to the subject at hand, albeit not what you were waiting to hear apparently..

And? The 60~70$ price point at launch doesn't equal the worth of the game during its whole lifespan.. it's was made from a business/marketing standpoint the increase sales for the devs/publishers when it's still new and the hype around the product or game is high. So of course the price will start to diminish after that.. so they make discounts/deals to just to sell and make profit as they can (regardless if it's digital or physical). sticking to the original price costs them money, but not when they make deals/discounts..
And who buys a year old game at its original price?

a year old? if a game was maybe from a generation or two ago that's one thing but it's within the same generation? why would a game be less worth your money the longer it's been out...that's stupid. it's just because they have been pulling this shit for so long that people have gotten used to simply expecting a game to go on crazy(75% off) and/or often(every other month) sales after being on the market for a few months
