When you use the word “if” you setup an analogy.
That analogy compares the pricing of food in comparison to the pricing of Unreal Marketplace assets. That is equating something. Maybe English isn’t your first language. In that case I apologize. But if it isn’t let me explain: When you make that comparison you’re ignoring the place that food serves in society and the place Unreal Marketplace serves in society. Food is a basic human need. We die if we don’t get food. The Unreal Marketplace is not a basic human need. So you’re comparing the pricing of things that are necessary for life to things that are necessary to your entertainment. Compare the prices of cars, cell phones, or other luxury items to the Unreal Marketplace and you have a more accurate comparison.
The reason I believe you went for food is basically food is something we all would get angry about if the prices were raised sky high. But the reason we would get angry is because we need food to live. That was your goal. To show me how upset I would be if food prices skyrocketed. The problem with that comparison is that we don’t need Unreal Marketplace assets to stay alive. That is why your analogy doesn’t work and your line of questioning falters. This isn’t an attack on you. This is being blunt that you are asking about the pricing of luxury items because you want those luxury items but cannot afford those luxury items to support your hobby.
