when I saw all those bruises on him I had hoped someone had beat the shit out of him, in which case (barring some other ailment that might cause him to suffer) I hope someone recorded it.

McConnel has the blackthumb rothand, it seems, and I cannot express how fucking excited I am that he may have a terrible ailment.

I’m getting violently angry thinking of the Republicans like Cassidy and Blanche and McConnell (and probably even the Reprehensible ACB) who would snort and dismiss something like this with a jerking off motion as “partisan manipulation”. They can’t go fuck themselves enough either in quantity or quality.

Not only that but Jack put replied to Alex's tweet himself. It's glorious, this roast. https://twitter.com/Jack_Septic_Eye/status/1319472114899030018?s=19

uh, what

Also, for all his talk of paying for things he... Doesn’t do that.

The difference here is that these streamers also act as adverts for these publishers’ videogames, down to the absolutely awful games. These companies pay big bucks to these streamers to play their games sometimes, so publishers stand to gain a lot more than they lose. I also struggle to understand Mr. Hutchinson’s…

These are games, you don’t exactly need to pay Hasbro a fee if you stream people playing Dungeons and Dragons or Monopoly.

What other pieces of media are interactive? That’s really the main difference here. There are literally infinite number of ways people can play most games. Maybe a speedrunner blazes through one game in 30 minutes. Another streamer might die on the first level in that same amount of time. Same game, different content,…

Right, but why would anybody want that besides people who are already rich?

Probably why he’s stuck working on a dead end like Stadia.

I really wonder if studios are filled to the brim with guys like this, cause it’d really explain A LOT.

You pay for personal use. it’s like buying a blue ray then streaming it. I can understand that argument.

“But you have enough money”

Rich people: Actually, people should be giving ME money.

I assumed that’s what he was getting it. But since they’re already working essentially as advertisers for the games, it comes off as especially dumb.

Cool. Piece of shit acts like a piece of shit.

Wow, what a piece of shit. If I’d had any interest at all in Stadia, this would’ve killed it.

So... I don’t watch streamers, so correct me if I’m wrong here.

I wouldn’t mind the ten dollars if, y’know, there was a game developers union.
