I spend $12 on a movie ticket. I watch for 2 hours. $6/hr entertainment, maybe a little less if I think about the movie after I leave, maybe a lot more if i also buy a popcorn.
I spend $30 on a game for sale on steam. I play it for 100 hours over the course of 4-5 weeks. $0.30/hr entertainment.
Just the value math alone checks out, regardless of the fact that the video game is a more interactive and interesting experience compared to the vomit that Hollywood spits out these days.
That’s assuming you only see movies in a theater or rent them. You can get plenty of hours of movie watching by subscribing to a single streaming service.
Yeah, but some people need to take polygraphs and swear they don’t do little things like pirate media or smoke pot. I’m not even kidding. The stupidest little thing will be made a big deal of. It’s easier to mostly follow the rules. Mostly.

You know that there are free altwrnatives to streaming? I still enjoy (paid) games more than free movies/series.
