How much do you pay per hour?

[explicit]

I was curious how much I've actually paid for all of my hours in Arma (2,843) so I decided to figure it out.

Dividing what I paid for the game, $60, and my total hours, 2843, I have paid roughly two cents per hour of playtime. How about you?

So by your logic the more you play the less you play? Look at it from another perspective; the amount you spend on the game you could've spent working. Times your hourly wage by the amount you've played, and ask yourself how much I've really paid for the game.

Or you would play inevitably because we have an addiction that needs to be fed by playing. The only thing different is one game can fill the void that hundreds fail to subside,

Well even at minimum wage that's like $28,000 lol

I paid $30 so like .000005 cents. But the real math is how much money your loosing playing this game versus doing something to make real money in your real flesh and blood lives. That is unless you sell in game money as a job.

Many people are mentioning the opportunity cost is terms of a forsaken job, but nobody has mentioned all the other opportunities, hobbies, knowledge that has been given up to play thousands of hours of Arma 3
