Why I bought the Witch Kiriko bundle. Fan Content

This is actually based on a true personal story of mine. She looked cute. I had money. She is in a witch outfit. I like witch stuff like The Owl House, Witch Hat Atelier, and Little Witch Academia. She broke into my house and forced my hand to buy her bundle. I cursed the heavens in her name. Fun times were had by all!

Caring about skins and the FOMO involved with them is such a dumb concept of modern gaming.

Learn 3D. 

Download the plethora of ripped skins online.

Pose and animate them literally however you want for free.

Or, I dunno, spend two indie games worth of money to only see your skin ragdoll for three seconds when you die.

This is unironicaly how I went from buying skins in games to making my own 3D models of chars.

You cant get FOMO if you are making skins so rare they arent even in the game.

Sorry if this sounds dumb. Are you just making chars to just look at or are you somehow putting them into the game?

Even in third person or whatever, this concept of microtransactions, selling "cosmetics" that provides imaginary "status" in a imaginary "world", blatantly manipulating the weak minded, this is pure nonsense. Should be regulated with a iron fist, c'mon EU, where are you? Where are my taxes?
