Because he is criminally insane. Basically, so mentally ill that we as a society have determined that he lacked the intent to commit the crimes. That doesn’t mean he can be free, because of the impact to public safety. It just mean he lacked the mens rea to be found guilty of the crimes, and lacks the mental capacity…

He didn’t get this indefinite sentence solely because of the gta leak.

sounds like a pretty dull episode

I don't think autism is what made him do crime. Other things he has may he treatable.

Dude what??  Hacking has potentially devastating consequences.  It should not be a slap on the wrist crime.  

I’m as anti-prison as you can get when it comes to anything short of violent crimes but even then I believe in rehabilitation over incarceration. However, I’m already seeing takes like “he’s just a hacker, he didn’t hurt anyone” which is absolutely the most braindead take I could have imagined.

I'm in the U.K. This still has the unpleasant whiff of money about it.

Zelda was my favorite game overall this year as I loved almost every aspect of it and never got bored playing it. Spent a few months after its release hoping for DLC like the first game got but believe the developers ended up saying they had no plans for it.

The entire situation with Jirard just sucks. Its just so horrible, so depressing. And it just blows my mind that there are still people out there defending him, defending all of his lies, year after year.

I know you guys aren’t fans of publishing stories of YouTube exposes, but the videos about the Completionist and his half-assed explanations are pretty damning.

I’ve no idea who these gaming YouTubers are, but I enjoy some good take-down schadenfreude.

Blame the readers. By “biggest”, they mean what drove the most traffic.

Nearly all of them controversies or divisive. Not a single one about great games like Baldur’s Gate, Alan Wake, Starfield, etc...

Bold of you to assume they had a choice.

How in the world did rocksteady mess this up. Their pedigree with the Arkham games was immaculate and this was one of the most anticipated games of the generation. Why in the world do you decide to make this a games as a service and homogenize all the characters 🤦

@ Jeremy the Klansman — I read your comment below in the grays, and I’m not the least bit sorry that you feel persecuted by all the social criticism against “racist” white males.

In what way..? He didn’t say anything about framerate.

I’m sorry a PC owner stole your boy and/or girl. That must have been really painful. Luckily you have your console to cuddle at night.

I’m not sure what it is exactly (I played Divinity:OS1 and liked it, after all; and I play tabletop D&D), but I just have 0 interest in BG3.

Let me install the fucking campaign without downloading GTA Online as well. That’s it. The game will be great I’m sure, I just don’t want to download 100+GB for just the damn campaign.

bro, get off your soapbox. just let them enjoy a great game that’s still good
