The Temptation To Waste Money Can Be Strong

Game devs scrolling through Unity Asset Store or Unreal Marketplace at 2 AM be like: "Ooh, a photorealistic medieval tavern pack for $89.99! My game is set in space, but I NEED this." The rational part of your brain knows you're making a 2D puzzle game, but that AAA-quality dragon model is calling your name like a siren. Next thing you know, your project folder has 47GB of unused assets and your bank account is crying. The struggle is real—you're literally drowning in temptation, desperately trying to escape before you click "Add to Cart" on that anime character bundle that has absolutely zero relevance to your survival horror game.
