“I’ve often thought ‘I wish I could give these folks another $10 or $20 because it was worth more than my initial $70 and they didn’t try to nickel and dime me every second,’”

You know what, I could agree with that opinion if the irony wasn't lost to folks

No. One. Would tip for a blizzard game.

  1. Blizzard DOES nickel and dime you at every second. Literally.

  2. Blizzard has not produced a good game since Overwatch 2.

  3. Blizzard made 8.71 Billion in 2023. They can afford to pay their developers without relying on public donations.

I don't think he's saying to tip for a Blizzard game. He's not at Blizzard anymore (probably still has stock though).

I basically agree, I mean, I'd tip for a game I really like. Actually I do, indirectly. I buy other things from companies like FromSoft. I would go further than you and admit I agree with him despite the irony.
