40x wagering, instant skip, or do you still play it?

Quick thing, 40x is an instant skip for me now. I had a 100% up to $100 offer sitting there, took it because on paper it looked playable, deposited $100 and then saw the wagering grind for what it was once I got into it... every decent hit just got swallowed by the rollover, balance kept bouncing around the same range, and by the time I was close enough to think about converting anything I was already playing scared and making worse slot picks just to get through it. Ended with nothing and it didn’t even feel like a real shot at a cashout, just rented balance. If it’s 40x on deposit plus bonus I don’t even read the rest anymore, and even 40x bonus only is bad enough if the game weighting is trash or there’s a low max cashout hiding in there. People treat 40x like standard and maybe that’s why casinos keep pushing it, but for slots it’s just too much drag on any decent run to be worth my money.
