I really like this idea, and now I want to put it in a session. Like, we go through the whole 2-brothers riddle, but it turns out that the one explaining the rules is the one lying.
Maybe both doors lead to "death"/encounters, maybe the players are free to just walk past the brothers without consequence, maybe a third more interesting thing happens.
I absolutely can afford them, but I'm canceling them purely on principle at this point.
My final straw was watching Fallout, when Amazon said "this program is ad-free thanks to this sponsor" and then not only showed an ad, but didn't even acknowledge that it was me paying them for the service, like I should be grateful to some stupid company for shoving their advertising in my face when I'm the one giving them my hard-earned money.
And the funny thing is, rather than competition driving down prices, they only seem to be competing for who can charge the most while showing more ads.
Fair point, honestly. It's more like a group of mini-monopolies than any kind of actual competitive space.
