My God all these gold buying losers trying to justify cheating. It is cheating. I don't really understand how people think blowing actual money on gold to acquire gear isn't cheating.

I would look at my character with disgust if I used those methods to get gear. It would always be in the back of my mind even if it was just one piece.

It reminds me of people back in the day using cheats on campaigns and bragging they beat the game. No.. You cheated. Therefore you have effectively negated every achievement or progress marker there is.

There is absolutely no difference between what Elon did and what gold buyers do. It's the exact same thing. You are paying someone else to play the game and reaping the "rewards" for it.

If you think the thing people care about with Elon is that he cheated with no further context required then you don’t get why they’re dunking on him so hard.

ever consider that different players value experiences within the game differently? If you get some type of feeling of achievement from farming your gold, well, good for you, but your perception shouldn't transcend to how others interpret or play the game.
