i imagine how a first date conversation would be; her: so what do you do him: im retired her: wow but your so young. did you invent something? cure cancer? him: no i mortgaged my house in order to buy a virtual astroid in a video game and now I make 200 thousand logging in every couple weeks collecting payments.
People need to understand that Entropia is a game designed around real money. Everything you do requires actual money to obtain. You can make that money back by then selling what you find.
Igor Surowiec Yep. Imagine buying Zandalar and taxing the drops ppl get. Someone gets a drop from a mob in Zandalar and sells it on the AH for a few gold, you'd be getting a few silvers. And then imagine the silvers are worth a few cents irl.
To be honest I would totally be willing to loads of time and money on a game like this if one existed nowadays. You'd be such an in-game baller and you'd be raking in money IRL for doing nothing but owning cool plots of land in a game. Plus if you are one of the few whales in the game, everybody will be going to your land and generating money. It'd be so easy to have a monopoly since it isn't regulated like a real market. You'd need to invest some serious cash in the start though.
sirduggins The mid 2000s was a wonderful time. Even just playing regularly and knowing everything you do is connected to irl value kinda feels good. Just looking up to these whales was amazing.
Wonkaworker does though with time and money, as he spends hours grinding and pays the monthly sub. He makes that back though because of streaming which is what half these virtual items did too. If a game is based around real money then owning something that sells goods is a good thing to own as it will make you money
Don't talk shit about the Michael Jackson planet, my family comes from there. In fact, I grew up in the Annieareyouok District on Beat-it Boulevard in Shamonya City.
If Blizzard didn't actively work against sales in WoW some accounts could probably have reached astronomical amounts. As soon as they get a whiff of an auction they instantly ban the account.
@@AiR1DaN Did you ever buy or sell them for amounts exceeding $10 000? All sales that gain so much traction that they reach Blizzard will result in a ban. This is a known fact since they enforce the ToS vehemently.
@@Bollibompa Definitely not that much. One of the accounts was sold on d2jsp, so it was virtual currency, the other was only $4900. I wish I had a $10k account 😂
thanks for putting the chat at a proper spot and big enough to read, compared to the other Asmongold react channels where they have theirs smaller. This is why I watch your videos because it let’s me see chat’s reaction which make the videos funnier.
I swear this chat is such a bandwagon He just says some random thing and everyone immediately goes "TRUE" "HAHAHAHAHAHAH" for some brownie points or something
twitch is just cancer. like sure they often ride his dick, but then they all jump down his throat because they don't know PvP got added to Diablo 3. Overall I think Asmon has some dumb takes, but ultimately he seems to be a guy who managed to make a career out of playing a game he enjoys so I can respect that.
Towards the last 3 expensive things, I couldn't stop laughing at Asmongolds reactions as it changed from "This is so stupid," to "Wtf...wait a minute..."
he's said many times that he doesn't just wanna stream WOW all day, he's getting burned out. Some of these videos are decent. My guess is that he'll stop streaming games once he makes enough money, and just keep doing these. Not just free money, you don't even have to be creative, people send you the topics. Winning.
@placehood idk in todays world 2 million wouldnt seem much over a whole life time, like idk when you think about taxes n morgages what if he decided to have kids? Then there would be schooling not to mention all the other stuff you do over a life time
@@limecat7996 a) “net worth of 2 mill” does not mean he has 2 million in his bank right now for him to use for the rest of his life, and b) 90% of people live their whole lives making less than 2 million throughout it.
once upon a time many years ago I actually owned the 'rarest' item in a mud mmo back in the day in Tibia (multi user dungeon mmo) I did not buy it for real money, just in game gold for a collection I had going. It was a key the programmers had made to unlock any door in the game, even the one's players were not supposed to get into. They later deactivated it so it ended up just being a very rare piece of the games lore. I probably could have sold it for a couple of hundred bucks at the time If I was so inclined but I never wanted to. Probably should have as I ended up having my account hacked and lost it anyways.
@@emikochan13 with that amount of that money for an early access lul, what scary is that they can say now it's a finish product and run away with the money and they can't do jack shit.
This Neverdie dude probably calculated this through over and over again. You dont want to lose youre house for nothing right? Yes it is risky so let me correct you: You are not not stupid enough, you dont have the balls. Anyway visit his homepage, his current projekts arent stupid at all.
@@MineCraffLP It's all about willingness to take risks. Will the game die and lose interest over the next few years or will the bidding wars keep going? Kudos to whoever can take the win (or loss, and not complain).
mdx Not everyone wants to take risks. And that's fine. Risk is accompanied with stress. Some people like to go for low risk, low gains. Takes longer, but you can rest easy. I'm a risk taking person, but I can definitely understand the other viewpoint.
Hahahaha he thought that neverdie buying that asteroid was really dumb but then was immediately in shock when he saw that the guy made so damn much from it.
I remember the Super rare psychic ambrosia Recipe in Elder Scrolls Online back in the day which sold at min $200 - $2,000 per recipe. Drop chance - 00.02 random areas
Wait the guy spent 70k on a egg that hatched a endgame boss that everyone had to find a way to kill. So he coulda just not spent anything and had the same thing in the end.
What surprised me most is learning that your house is more than $350000 lol You’d think you’d hear about these people doing it more than once. Especially if they made money!
You and anyone who likes your comment need to get the fuck out of here we don't need your werid ass on this channel go back to your terribly animated game that only has fat girls playing unrealistic body shaped females.
Last night was crazy, had a big dicked lady with her pee pee flopping all around. It was friggen hot. Also SL has changed so much in the past few years since the original vid was published. No ones using those shitty default avatars anymore. Its all high quality mesh and bento physics now boooooi.
I don't understand why anyone would spend that much in a game that so few people play. 1 million registered accounts =/= number of active users and even then the number of active users that actually go around and experience this stuff and pays for it should be even lower. I feel like there is some fucky price fixing going on or something in Entropia.
Apparently (from other users) it's a game that revolved mostly around spending and making real life money. So having the "hippest club in the universe" would be very lucrative in the long run. Plus there's no competition in the virtual space (from what I assume), as opposed to opening a club in real life and there already being tens of reputable clubs.
like this other poster said everything revolves around real money. even ammo for your gun you use to kill things costs real money for every single bullet. people actually make spread sheets to find the most efficient possible means of killing a creature even if it means swapping to multiple different guns or ammos to perfectly kill the mob as to use the least amount of real money to kill it as possible.
I tried to get into Entropia back in 2007, it requires actual money to get stuff in the game so you can try to make your money back by farming shit. I couldn't get into it but the entire economy uses actual money.
Gotta fact check the video where it says the Amsterdam sale was the first virtual real estate sale on ebay. People bought and sold Ultima Online housing on ebay in 1990s.
Honestly it just depends on how much money you have/make... Dropping thousands to a millionaire is nothing; dropping millions to a billionaire is nothing.
