>I-IM NOT A POORFAG I JUST SPEND MY MONEY SMART
on what faggot? your animu figurines and body pillows?

I am pretty sure most weeb shit has at least some material value and can be traded compared to this.

>how can valve get away with this
it's simple, they just have to count on the stupidity of some people to fork over large amounts of cash for some virtual shit

what is this? explain please.

That's what happens when Chinks make lots of money but don't have anything to spend it on because they live in China.

What is it?

here we go, case in point

Hehe... HAHAHA

>How can Valve get away with this?

>"Hey anybody got too much money? Here's some dumb shit to spend it on, if you want."
>"Fuck yeah here you go dude"

It's a bit more complicated than that but not by much

Explain please.

Stop white knighting autistic children with a disposable income.

I want that painting made by Hitler, that some Chinese guy bought for 100,000 USD.

uhhh, user. THIS IS MORE THAN YOUR PARENTS MAKE IN A YEAR user.

This desu if your so rich you can afford to waste 45,000 on shit like this you don't need your money.

Top kek, not even close.

I did some sleuthing

That dude is the son of a saudi billionaire who lives in the states

>spends 45,000 on a video game
>is still a virgin

>inb4 how do you know he's a virgin
see point one

you poorfags cant stop yourselves from posting

Basically the person in OP pic is level 100,000 while the others are level 200-2000.

Every level you get a chance to get these items or more. So the guy basically bought $45,000 worth of levels to get cosmetic items.

>mfw when I'm upper middle class

If he can spend 45k on vidya, he can buy the finest prostitutes.

The Viper hat looks dumb.

none of that makes any sense to me. why didn't he just buy the cosmetic shit directly?

>idiot gives a company money
>blame the company

Are you fucking retarded? Maybe you're related.

if you were you wouldnt feel the need to point it out, youre garbage class

One of my friends makes about 45,000 every 2 days

But he made a startup in the bay area

....Still dont think he'd spend it on fake items though

>if you were you wouldnt feel the need to point it out, youre garbage class
You're the one calling everyone poor. You shouldn't Project so much, also your grammar is horrid.

do people even play Dota or rather MOBAs still? if they do what a bunch of fucking losers.

Because you can't, it's all locked behind the compendium levels. And the compendium runs out a short time after the International tournament ends.

you're*

you can't
think gatcha
its all based on luck

losing your virginity to a prostitute doesn't count.

Because it is random. It is like gambling

No "also your grammar is horrid." you're is you are, I used it correctly.

Does it count in the eyes of God?

>playing PC game
>can't screencap

>shit minigame
>mostly shit cosmetics
>shit map cosmetic
>shit theme

Why the fuck do you care how people spend their money? Yeah there's stupid shit out there people buy but what are you going to do about it? Sit there and cry?

MY GAMES AR FAR SUP[ERIOR TO YOUR SHIDDY MOBAS I AM A TRU GAMER 1!!1!11!!!

who cares man, richfags spend their money on stupid shit.
If I was a richfag too I'd buy that tyrael pet on warcraft that costs like 10k bucks

Ia this the second coming of jccaps?
>i did it on purpose :^)

It's amazing that every year the compendium gets worse and worse, you get less and less things by purchasing it, and you need to buy more and more levels to get stuff you got baseline 2-3 years ago. It's truly astonishing how Valve can push this greedy fucking business practice further and further and morons keep paying and paying and paying.
Every year; less stuff for more money. It's insane.

Umm no sweetie :)

It all went to shit when they changed community stretch goals into a personal leveling system, and it worked.

>CHING CHANG CHONG IM FROM CHINA MONEY BUYS ME HAPPINESS MONEY IS EVERYTHING

>be a "poorfag" aka dont throw your money away
>live just fine with 50% shitty jobs and 50% neetbucks
>meanwhile most of the people work 8h a day 5day a week and dont know how to be happy so they just throw money everywhere hoping it works

Well some people are filthy rich user, it's rare, but it happens. If a guy makes actual millions every year, 45000 is pocket change for him. That'll be the same as if you spend 2 bucks on bubble gum. I don't buy cosmetics because I pirate my games so I haven't spent anything on gaming in ages, but I know some people that are rich and will spend hundreds every fucking month to buy the new dota arcana skins, the legendary LoL skins, and stattrack weapons in CSGO.

Plus, people spend money on all kinds of things. I can assure you that in your life you spent money on things people that buy cosmetics probably didn't. Some will spends thousands on anime figurines with big tiddies, other will buy a pair of limited edition shoes for 500 bucks while the standard version is exactly the same but costs 100.

And who told you he had to chose between the game and the prostitutes? Usually when someone can spend SO MUCH for something like that, he's also the kind of guy that spent 10k a new pc, 20k for some french wine, 5k on japanese lobster fed with kobe beef, 10k on prostitutes, 500k on a car, all in the same day. Some people are REALLY FUCKING RICH.

Look how much stuff you could get for buying the 2015 compendium:
Cursor pack, an effigy, loading screens, 3 emoticon packs, a HUD, taunts, a ward, a courier, a fucking permanent map skin, a music pack, an announcer pack, 3 weather skins, 1 of each immortal chest, and a bonus Axe immortal.

If you buy the 2017 compendium, oh sorry, BATTLE PASS, because that's the new shit:
Cursor pack, music pack, 1 taunt, a TEMPORARY map skin, a ward, a courier and 1 of each immortal treasure.
Oh and a ticket to participate in the ego masturbation that are battle cups.
It's funny that they didn't even bother making a HUD for TI this year, because they know they fucked up custom HUDs with their new minimalistic design.
Announcer pack locked behind level 75.
Permanent map locked behind level 150.
Kunkka Immortal locked behind level 225.
BONUS fuck you to support players: Io arcana locked behind level 250 and your chance of getting it gone forever once TI ends.

I supose this was some kind of auction and not a fixed price thing right?

No, fixed price

get away with what? if someone chooses to throw money at something how is this valves fault?

How do they come up with such price tag?

because its a voluntary transaction

Because you are poor and thus your opinions on their business practices dont matter

I spent ten bucks on rocket league keys after play 230 hours and I still felt a little bad. How the fuck can you drop thousands.

>remember how dotard laughing at leaguebab for buying skin
>this shit happen

jesus, i remember seeing a couple people who have every single skin for all champs in lol only cost up to 5k max

The other guys in this thread are retarded, he spent 40k for the level 100000, not for the hats, they are just a bonus. He wants to show off his e-peen on his profile.

>So the guy basically bought $45,000 worth of levels to get cosmetic items.
No you'll get everything in the immortals by 3,000 at max. He wanted to have the highest compendium level because he's also one of the highest steam levels.

Dad is gonna be pissed when he finds out you've been stealing his credit card.

For having such a hard-on for MUH FREE MARKET you pol faggots sure hate it a lot.

Free market = unhinged jewry

Nuh-uh, sweetie. That's exactly what it means.

>spending an average year's salary on a fucking video game
