Oh buddy. Are you familiar with temu? Like alibaba or wish or Amazon. Well they have a fish feeding game that incentivises you to log in every day and do stuff like share and buy etc to potentially get a discount etc. It’s insane. A MARKETPLACE APP WITH A GAME TO GET PEOPLE MORE HOOKED.
You’re right and it’s that sort of stuff that people like you and me will deal with and figure out and move on but unfortunately it’s not the case with regular people. That’s why I never recommend that sorry if stuff to ‘normies’ ie. My mom. Instead I set them up with the lesser of evils that will give them convenience and make them more likely to trust me in the future. That way, if I ever REALLY need them to move on from something they will be more likely to just listen to me and not fight me about it. I just got a couple of friends to switch over to Firefox even though they were chrome fans, all because I have years of goodwill. Ported their bookmarks and got them ublock and they barely even notice a difference.
My unpopular opinion is that the pros aren’t actually that good if they have to gut a game to play it. I wanna see the do all the crazy shit they do but with items on and on annoying stages like the moving Pokémon one. Either get good or fuck off. I can’t think of another game where they do this stuff to this extent.
This might be illegal in your area. Might be worth a non emergency call to the cops and let them know the owner always flashes the houses around at midnight not letting people sleep.
