and I collect things that can be obtained for free.

I didn't quite mean that. Take a look at the prices at which genuine paintings from the past are sold to private collections. That's where "elitism" really comes into play, which can't be said about collecting anything modern.

Ah, I understand you now.
Yes, elitism is certainly present. The very concept of art implies elitism to some extent, although one could argue about that.

But I don't agree about pricing.
The hype isn't because of the elitism of art, but because of the auction. That's just its nature.
It's just that art has a high starting price. And something modern starts with a lower price and goes for 20k.

And yes, Ples, I personally think that all sorts of black squares and Doctor Zhivago are "not very good."

Here, "elitism" definitely plays a role, which cannot be said about collecting something modern.

In my opinion, elitism is evident in both cases.
However, creations from the past may have a factor that increases their value: these individuals were pioneers in a particular genre/style/idea. Perhaps that's why the aforementioned "Dark Messiah" is so popular, as there are no other reasons...

During the day, I met up with a friend from school, and in the evening, I met up with friends from university. It was good; I laughed and enjoyed myself for once, and then I felt down.

Overall, it's very unpleasant and completely negates all the positive emotions.

What does this tell us? That you shouldn’t meet up with friends from school and university.

Let him better face the Havens.

Yes, if you look at any Hvsh player, you’ll realize that your life isn’t so bad after all, and your mood will immediately improve.

You seem a bit too focused on this.

Yes, if you look at any Heroes of Might and Magic player, you'll realize that your life isn't so bad, and your mood will immediately improve.

But things aren't going very well for the friends either.

Not surprising, considering such a companion.

You're welcome. Feel free to ask if you need anything else.
