Gamergate is the worst thing to happen to gaming and developers have little to do with that. The predatory nature of F2P is shitty, but it’s nothing compared to the real world damage a bunch of “real gamers” did (and do).

Just because Nestle and BP and whoever else are fucking evil doesn’t mean that’s the only way to run a business. Tell me that the people at Kitfox games don’t believe what they say:

Ugh. Quit peddling shitting on people like it’s old-timey wisdom. Do companies like to have good PR? Obviously yes. Could they have made the monetization in this game more predatory and no one would have noticed or cared? Also yes.

Don’t misuse lying cat. A company doesn’t broadly offer refunds to whoever feels they deserve it if they are only interested in the bottom line.

If his story is horseshit then how do you explain that his step-son is also named Sterling?!?

I think Day Drinking was making a joke, that like... all generations need to die out to make that work. They say “under 30" in the next line, so I think they’re riffing on the often-spouted idea that racism is somehow something we’ll just grow out of as a society, which is obviously not how it works.

This guy is gonna flip out when he finds out what every little kid does in pools.

I mean he could retire right now having made more money than I have in my entire life put together, and I’ve been relatively blessed. Hard to feel pity for someone that has been as fortunate as Ninja.

Avoid it. I said something stupid once and still feel like a fucking piece of shit about it.
