It's true - I know plenty of people who've tried to be streamers and they ended up suffering burnout to the point they started hating games.

I agree because I have the base game and every other month I always get a notification that another DLC is coming out. This is a fact. Star Citizen is at $350 Billion at the time of writing and they're no closer to releasing that pyramid scheme of a game. Star Citizen has to be one of the longest running scams ever.

Never make your hobby your job. It'll ruin it. I live by that rule. It's OK to stream games, but only as long as you enjoy it, as soon as it becomes an obligation it's all over. If you can make money off your hobby, that's great, but never turn it into a job. I'm actually making a tiny amount of money off one of my hobbies, but it's really nothing significant and I end up reinvesting most of it into the hobby. I've been approached by multiple people already to do custom work for them for money, and i turn all of them down.

No doupt @Crazycrab is right, I actually forgot about Star Citizen. That $2,500 ship is the tip of an iceberg. You have to pay for additional character slots, pay for name changes, pay for the games single player component Squadron 42 (something that was promiced to be indluded in the original Kickstarter) and its pay-to-win with upgrades and boosters available as a pay or grind option. Then, there's this; And that $27,000 isn't even the real price. One must have spent at least $1,000 on other purchases just to "earn the right" to even buy this. All this in, as crab said, a game still in pre-alpha after almost a decade, has generated over $300 million in crowfunding and is not free to play. Maybe that's why I forgot about this "game", because it's not a game, it's a scam.

To me, the winner must be the The Sims 4. The standard game is barely even a fraction of the actual game. There are so many expansion packs that expansion packs are available for the expansion packs, it's unbelievable. EA, they do what they do.

DOA 5 and 6 have to be up there. They each have hundreds of costumes across multiple season passes at a total cost of up to around $1000 for everything. Bloody insane.

It depends on who I'm fighting. If I'm training a weaker individual/friend, I'll go easy on them but if it's an enemy I instantly destroy them because I despise having to fight people weaker than me.
