And there is no greater monster than exploiting everyone's trust on you into the ground and compel them to see goodness in you even if you obviously ditched them into the bin.
It's REALLY fun if you're something like GameFreak or Blizzard knowing you can backstab anyone you want, cross fifty lines over the moral event horizon, then jump ship and laugh. If people start seeing you as the vile monsters you are you laugh at them because you WON.
A company who truly values money delivers quality works with their soul and not cash grabs or half assed products. But a company who just wants to see things burn do. This is not pure greed, this is pure evil. And being pure evil feels GOOD.
Honestly people should not be investing so much time in "efforts" where the "rewards" are literally not real, at least in the daily real life grind you can turn in your fiat dollars for actual goods, and if you work out properly you can literally grow stronger, the concept of investing many hours into earning make believe powers and resources is a very new development versus thousands of years of human history, there is nothing intrinsically wrong with games in general but if the concept is to sink a ton of time into "earning" make believe powers and goods then people ought to know better
