How is this preferable to just building your own itx machine?

I understand the appeal of a framework laptop, where getting a chassis and mainboard with extended hardware support is otherwise impossible. But how is this better than the existing options?

Great, I liked them. Getting a free loot box for every level up was just a nice little extra.

I never bought them, and I had saved a couple of hundred boxes to open one day. Sadly they got automatically opened just before the release of OW2.

Do the people making these fantasy machine think farming equipment is just hollow?

Yeah that happens when you break laws. You get exposed, and rightly so. Fuck these guys and their active profiteering from exploiting other people.

When starfield released and tried this “early access for extra cash” nonsense, the game was cracked before the regular release was even available.
