The dark side of games can only be bought and then abandoned

Instead of just shopping and abandoning game products, users should be concerned with the practical use of them.
According to the Kotaku , the world gaming community is no stranger to the concept of “Pile of shame”. This phrase refers to games you have already purchased but are never going to try. At the same time, players do not give up or intend to liquidate these game discs at a cheaper price.

Over time, those game discs gradually piled up. However, those who buy back take it as pride. “Pile of shame” was so popular that it appeared in Urban Dictionary – the famous slang dictionary in America. The popularity of “Pile Of Shame” also directly aroused problems of consumerism: customers buy games to own instead of play. We also gradually get caught up in brilliant advertisements in the media, some heated discussion on forums, and then hit the buy button without thinking. The feeling of buying and possessing overwhelms the user’s feeling of wanting to play. “Pile of shame” therefore also grows with time.

Capturing the psychology of consumers, brands also regularly launch many discount programs to stimulate demand. For example, at each sale of Steam, the participant will never go back empty-handed because there are too many items with “unexpected” discounts. Walking around the shelves, you will convince yourself with statements like “This has decreased a lot compared to before, buy it because you are saving and saving is smart”. As a result, a lot of games are brought home and you are just enjoying the feeling of having them for a while. After that, the products were gradually forgotten. Instead of just shopping without any concern about practicality, users should learn to spend effectively. Don’t try to buy too much until you have actually finished playing all the games. In fact, games are always sold by manufacturers all year round, do not stock up on them for fear of out of stock. Games exist for the sole purpose of being played by the user. If you just buy and never touch it, chances are you are causing the game titles to be distorted.
