The closest thing I know of is Power Up Letdown. I think somebody else asked for a very similar thing not very long ago.
So, there's a mobile game that has a lot of updates, obviously, addressing issues and stuff. One issue was finding a use for an alternate currency that veteran players have been racking up with nothing to spend it on. They finally add a section in the in-game shop to spend that currency on, but all the items available are stamina-replenishment items that players already get drowned in. What's the right trope for this?
