explicit Posted May 24, 2016 Report Share Posted May 24, 2016 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? Link to comment

Cassettes Posted May 24, 2016 Report Share Posted May 24, 2016 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. explicit and Dakinehernandez like this Link to comment

You practically cant do anything besides fast food. Trust me, I havent lost that much money. http://www.lni.wa.gov/WorkplaceRights/TeenWorkers/Prohibited/ This is just the start. "Cant have a job that requires driving as the main duty" - cant deliver pizza "Can't operate a forklift" - k "Cant work more than 10ft off the ground" - Cant stock shelves or warehouse shit.

The only thing different is one game can fill the void that hundreds fail to subside, explicit likes this Link to comment

Sentinel Diesel Posted May 25, 2016 Report Share Posted May 25, 2016 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.

Jack Hoff Posted May 25, 2016 Report Share Posted May 25, 2016 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 Link to comment
