Again you misunderstand.
My point is that if your goal is to collect all the cards, the only way to do this is to play the gambling games.
I totally understand - and have repeatedly said that i agree with you on this very point.
What I disagree on is whether you you are ***** to do this or choose, however reluctently, to do it. Until now you have chosen to do so.
Your obsession with semantics again entirely misses the point. Of course it’s a choice. Buying (or not) anything is a choice.
I don’t see how that’s at all helpful in this discussion.
Fair and ethical business practices are also a choice. Customer service and care is also a choice. Treating others with respect is also a choice. So is ignoring, exploiting, and treating them with contempt.
Totem’s choice is clearly to prioritise profit over everything else. It’s ugly.
So again, I’m exercising my choice to spend my money elsewhere from here on in.
