<p>Gacha games. You know, the ones where you have to go on missions to unlock whatever the in-game currency is (gems, orbs, jewels?) to use in randomly summoning allies so you can go on more missions to earn more... money.</p>

<p>Or, you know, you could just buy a shitton of money with your actual money and just spend that instead.</p>

<p>Except why would you? Why would <i>anyone?</i> It's just a collection of bits and bytes that resides on a server you'll probably never get to travel to in your life. It's meaningless- it's literally <i>worthless</i>. It's just a bunch of numbers on a screen that have artificial value assigned to them. When the servers shut down, all of that sweet, sweet data is going with it. And then it won't matter if you have a five-star Ephraim or Hector or whatever.</p>

<p>A long, long time from now, when I'm on my deathbed, my final thoughts aren't going to be, "Man, I wish I played more <i>Fire Emblem Heroes</i>." They're going to be about all the things I accomplished in life because I deleted that damn app and stopped wasting my time in the mornings.</p>

<p>I can't get back the time I wasted on gacha games. But I can choose not to waste any more. And I hope you will too.</p>
