I didn't intended to share the repo but as HN is talking about storybook, here it is. Not ready for prod, many todos but the storybook/cypress is demonstrated here.

If you want to speak about bad choices studies, we need to speak about the society structure to understand that kind of paths.
To understand casino, we just need to learn what is an addiction.
Making a game can be an artist job but it also can be a business which is expected to grow, fast and strong as any business.
I found the use of the word "greed" extremely opinionated. Is CEO of Amazon greed ? Greed let suppose that it's accumulating money in a selfish way, which seems to be a pretty bad stuff. I might not understand the nuance as I'm not a native english speaker but I find really strange to link the desire of making money with the "greed" word.
You are maybe right, maybe it's only possible to consider video games as a sustainable business with freemium addiction. I really ask the question
How a game studio can make money with a F2P game? Or how can we make money from a free 2 play NoBullshit™ game.
Disclaimer: I'm a game developer, I make a MMO F2P mobile game with IAP and ads.
EDIT: I'm not trying to discuss why a F2P with IAP and ads is not always a Bullshit game, you guess that I'm trying to do things well.
