They tell you buy this and you do. Whatever NEXON says people will do. Don't believe me? Just look at the forums and anytime they post NX deals. People rush it.
Dont all farm animals tend to do what the farmer says (except maybe a few like the chickens), and wheren't lemmings the animal stupid enough to jump off cliffs?
I dont think we need to argue over metaphores, as long as the metaphore fits the situation. I choose the cattle metaphore, because the point I made was regarding how they want to suck us dry - take our money - and this analogy was related to the topic of greed. Sheep wouldnt fit in my example, because sheep dont relate to the idea of greed; they relate to the idea of control.
Now, lets try to not argue over analogies, unless the analogies make no sense or dont fit the situation.
