I got it into my head to play Recettear An Item Shop's Tale again after many years, and wow the increase in loan payments per week...
Week 1: 10 000 pix. Fine, manageable.
Week 2: 30 000 pix. Felt like a steep increase, but I was able to pull through.
Week 3: 80 000 pix. Okay, now you're taking the piss. How do you intend me to earn that much when we haven't even been open for a month? I thought maybe they'd bump it up to 50 000, and that would still be rough, but 80?
Capitalism, ho, indeed...
