Same. I hate to feel like an absolute putz just shelling out money to giant corporations but also... at some point I feel like you have to acknowledge that making games is not cheap and that yeah, someone has to pay for it.

It's always incredible to me whenever I see people gripe about subscription costs for popular MMOs like Runescape and World of Warcraft that are in the range of... (gasp!) $15 per month.

This is... so profoundly and insanely cheap to me. I am not a wealthy man, but $15 for what is very likely a person's major source of entertainment for the entire month is an insane value.
