I tried the slots for a bit, found it dull, and moved on (annoyed that I'd have to grind and use the crappy slow method of buying a ton of coins). Then in other games I just never was fond of the risk-reward. Why would I bother with this whatever mini game when I could potentially lose money? KotOR, Mass Effect, New Vegas, Red Dead, just endless mini games that I would never engage with. --- This user is awesome!: https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/user/gamefaqs-user?account=12351915135 <cite>AndyReklaw posted [p:986340560] in I think vi...

Real life doesnt let you do that. --- Favorite series: Super Robot Wars, Dragon Quest, Fire Emblem, Tales, Megami Tensei, FF (I-X), Suikoden, Lunar, Phantasy Star, Shining Force, SoulCal, and more! <cite>Sundercles posted [p:986340589] in I think vi...
