Dangers of opening packs!!!

in #chaos3 years ago

Its straight up gambling...

That seems like a really obvious statement, and to most it probably is. Honestly i kinda knew myself while i was opening the packs that i was just gambeling away all my dec, hoping for that elusive goldem legendary (and i was spoiled by an early goldem summoner) but it was fun and i kept going.

I would take my openings and sell them on to fund more pack openings, and i would often get lucky, soooo many legendaries and so many golds. Yet the prices of the cards fell the more i opened, and my funds to buy more packs slowly fell with them.

So now i am buying up packs to hold and sell on later as i originally planned to do, hoping to recoup the hundreds of dollars lost on what was essentially a very expensive gatcha game.

I had fun, but it stopped being fun, and as the saying goes "when the fun stops...STOP!"

Yeah, well. As you wrote opening packs is fun so that's how I look at it. When I spend $$ on a pack I don't expect any returns just doing it for the thrills haha.

Yeah thats true, i think i was in a bit of a mixed mindset, fun wi5h the hope of returns. Im happy hodling now though :)
