  • Used to play Apex Legends a lot, so could give some reasons why.

    A core part of Apex’s monetization is “keep the core gameplay F2P accessible and make super expensive skins for those who can pay”. The game would put items worth around 300$ multiple times in a single season. After that as long as the gameplay’s solid; F2P players wouldn’t find a reason to not play; and whales could flex their 300$ death box to all these players interacting with them. Hell, give F2P players tasks that take too long to unlock new skins; and maybe they’ll toss a few bucks in too. You’ve got yourself a neat money loop, and players are happy.

    As for cheating; most people i see cheating does it as a way of doing the unexpected in a video game. Cheating is not enjoyable to most if you do it all the time; but the cheat providers offer cheats with shorter time spans to hook the people that want to do just that. I recall an interview done with a cheat developer for a different yet similarly popular game, and they’ve said most of their sales come through these.








  • While I migrated to sway on my desktop, I couldn’t on my laptop due to sway not seeing my laptop keyboard as a valid input source.

    libinput debug-events shows the keyboard and the inputs sent to it on the keyboard which is Wayland’s keyboard input library (so i can say its not caused by Wayland), but when i type swaymsg -t get_inputs it does not. I couldn’t find a single solution for this so, I’m using i3wm on it until i can fix it.
