How can you not afford the game but have the means to buy the hardware to play it on?

Sorry I asked, it was an honest question, I’m not into gaming. I didn’t think games were that expensive. This place is really starting to feel just like reddit.

In some countries that have lower currencies, a AAA game (like Cyberpunk) on PC or a Switch game (think Pokémon) can cost up to 5 days of minimum wage, even with some regional pricing.

Piracy makes gaming somewhat affordable since PCs may be available through cheaper 2nd hand markets and can be used for other purposes besides gaming.

Cos that’s where all their money has gone, on the hardware required to run these games, and extra on the rgb setup for the FPS boost lmao
