perceptions:

roblox: free to play, pay once a month to have fun
minecraft: pay once and have fun

reality:

roblox: free to have everything you need
minecraft: pay your $20+ once, but then realize a week later what a terrible mistake you've made

discuss.

There is no reality. You bought it wanting it. No need to regret any 'mistakes' under purchasing what you paid for.

"that's like saying when you order food at a restaurant, you're happy with it even if you find an entire rat in it"

That's just you giving a dumb 'example' on how whatever I stated is false. Minecraft is the top multi-player video game on Youtube. Someone can easily journey to them videos, grow an interest, find out more information, buy the game. They know exactly what they paid for, and they just want to experience the fun and entertainment the people on the videos are having.

As for that food example, they have customer satisfaction, and with a safety hazard like a dead mouse, they can be easily sued.

what you said made no sense

you basically said that if you buy it, you're automatically satisfied. 100%, 5 stars consistently.

>Minecraft is the top multi-player video game on Youtube.

and? is this supposed to impress me? justin bieber has the most-viewed video. is he good? nope.

> Someone can easily journey to them videos, grow an interest, find out more information, buy the game. They know exactly what they paid for, and they just want to experience the fun and entertainment the people on the videos are having.

that's also like movie trailers; they usually only shot the climaxes of the movie.

>As for that food example, they have customer satisfaction, and with a safety hazard like a dead mouse, they can be easily sued.

we're not talking about legality; we're talking about satisfaction.

what if a soup is cold? what if you're allergic to an ingredient? or what if you simply don't like the taste?

Your experiences within the game decide whether the purchase was good or not. Not trying to say that it's automatically satisfied, but if you already have it, the purchase is final. Stop regretting it.

"and? is this supposed to impress me? justin bieber has the most-viewed video. is he good? nope."

The part of the videos is suppose to give a view on how big the audience is with the Minecraft community.

"that's also like movie trailers; they usually only shot the climaxes of the movie."

Minecraft is a game. -_- The gameplay of it differs. There is no climax or resolution, nothing of that. There are servers, single player, 3 types of gamemodes, personal maps. There are a lot of things that make the point of it being similar to a trailer different. (There are also walkthroughs for Minecraft maps as well, if you didn't notice)

"we're not talking about legality; we're talking about satisfaction."

Contradictions, everywhere. You bring up a safety hazard and a rare occurrence to try to prove a point at first?


___________________


There are also follow up questions to the scenarios of the soup..

(if it's cold, test it before you even eat it?)
(there are multiple soups, and a lot of them give the main ingredients in the name.. So it shouldn't be hard to realize a soup has them ingredients in them)

(If you do not like the taste, simply regret it.)

A restaurant is not a one-time purchase, as a loop-hole in your examples. So, this gives the person reasons not to go there again, order something different, or just go to different places.

But Minecraft is a one-time purchase, and regrets cannot be made, most likely they will just be a depressant if it's thought of so deeply.

I like the game of Minecraft because theres nothing to run out basicly of what to do.. And because i'm a owner of 3 succsessful servers that I run and pay 60 USD a month for. Ofcourse I have help from donators but that is beside the point.

I don't see how 'reality:' is compared to Minecraft or Roblox.. Basicly because they're games that you'll play for like 15 years and then you'll be able to play other popular games.

Now there will be people just like everyone on here comparing games, such as let me just say two fake games and phrases 'Desslenish is better than depressanish' People will do exactly what we're doing now. Arguing over a god dang game. It's just asinine.

Then there will be amazing arguments over which game is better than the other.

Why do you need money to run a server?

so basically

you're saying that i'm not allowed to regret it because i already have it

you're changing your story

>The part of the videos is suppose to give a view on how big the audience is with the Minecraft community.

and same goes with jb

and he's just as terrible.

>Minecraft is a game. -_- The gameplay of it differs. There is no climax or resolution, nothing of that.

there are climaxes

just small ones, which makes it repetitive and boring

>There are servers, single player, 3 types of gamemodes, personal maps. There are a lot of things that make the point of it being similar to a trailer different. (There are also walkthroughs for Minecraft maps as well, if you didn't notice)

that had absolutely nothing to do with the discussion.

>Contradictions, everywhere. You bring up a safety hazard and a rare occurrence to try to prove a point at first?

the point is not the safety hazard; it is the point that the customer was unsatisfied.

>There are also follow up questions to the scenarios of the soup..

>(if it's cold, test it before you even eat it?)

and if it is cold, the customer is unsatisfied.

>(there are multiple soups, and a lot of them give the main ingredients in the name.. So it shouldn't be hard to realize a soup has them ingredients in them)

you said the main ingredients... meaning there are more.

>(If you do not like the taste, simply regret it.)

didn't you just say not to?

>A restaurant is not a one-time purchase, as a loop-hole in your examples. So, this gives the person reasons not to go there again, order something different, or just go to different places.

the order is one-time

if the customer doesn't like his/her purchase, simply leave. regret your purchase.
applies to both.

>But Minecraft is a one-time purchase, and regrets cannot be made, most likely they will just be a depressant if it's thought of so deeply.

again with the "you can't regret" situation.

you regret wasting your money

you've failed to tell me why you can't.

what else do we argue over? we're in a game now, and were not allowed to argue about politics/religion or anything along the lines of that.

Simply put: Minecraft states there are no refunds. So, why bother regretting your purchase even when you know nothing is going to change the transaction? You will most likely just regret, regretting the purchase depending on how long it was thought of.

There may be more ingredients, but why order a soup when you don't know all of the ingredients? I don't mean things like the broth, I mean things like carrots, potatoes, or salt. Things like that.


There also may be 'little climaxes', but that's not the blame of Minecraft in general. Minecraft is bought kind of like a studio to make games, play other people's games, or maps. It is not made as a game, with a thing like a story mode.

It's all based on how you play, and how the game/map creator has intended it to be played.

who said anything about changing the transaction.

what?

>There may be more ingredients, but why order a soup when you don't know all of the ingredients?

i don't know, maybe to be surprised? why would you eat something newcalready knowing what it's going to taste like?

> I don't mean things like the broth, I mean things like carrots, potatoes, or salt. Things like that.

those are obvious ingredients


>There also may be 'little climaxes', but that's not the blame of Minecraft in general. Minecraft is bought kind of like a studio to make games, play other people's games, or maps. It is not made as a game, with a thing like a story mode.

and every game is the same; just different people and different building styles.

>It's all based on how you play, and how the game/map creator has intended it to be played.

which will always be the same results

i'll reply tomorrow or something, i'm tired.
