Because what Fox’s hosts don’t understand (willingly or otherwise) is that people don’t believe what Fox is selling because it’s a reflection of a deep-seated belief — they believe it because they see it all the time on TV.

Oh! You know what they should do? Have your character wear, like, a chicken hat or a diaper for the next five online matches.

Not sure how the initial reply got lost, but the Phoenix Point devs said that Epic’s payout to them was basically their entire Fig fundraising total (i.e. the full operational cost for the game) and then some. They specifically said that they could refund every crowdfunded copy and still be in the black, and that the…

True, but absent anything being made explicit, I’m not going to give them benefits of the doubt here, and especially not when games are already announced - from large, established publishers - and then become exclusive. What’s more, the way that EGS does curation means that the sort of devs who could really use that…

If taste wasn’t entirely subjective, discounting an entire franchise/genre simply because you personally dislike it with a haughty air of superiority wouldn’t be moronic.

Oh good, a female version of old man screams at cloud.

Yeah, it’s funny since the only reason that I’ve seen any developers/publishers going to Epic is because Epic is literally PAYING them to exclude other stores. Don’t know about you, but I don’t think there are “greener pastures” in Monopoly Prison, which is exactly where Epic is taking these developers. “Do not pass…

You think this is about numbers of people and budgets? The US government employs over 1000x more people per person served, with an annual budget AT LEAST 1000x times greater than Steam, and still does a routinely shitty job. And if we were to restrict that to law enforcement, nation-wide, there are roughly a million…

I want to put some things in perspective when it comes to Steam’s various problems: Steam has over 100 million active accounts, 45 million active users per day. That’s greater than the population of many countries. How can you expect Steam, a company with fewer than 1000 employees, to react quickly to problems (to say…

Lets assume that it is... Isn’t that interesting that Cheeto’s boy Ajit Pai is arguing that the internet (the only means of interacting with Twitter) is NOT a vital part of modern society and thus ISP’s should be free to fuck over any consumer they wish.

Thes days that’s refresh updates of each game.

Given his policies and wall obsession, would have been most appropriate if he chose White Castle.

We need to elect Eric Andre in 2020 so he can do all the Trump stuff all over again and leave the White House in ruins.

Because in a competitive sport, that’s what you have to do. Because that’s what EVERY player has had to do, man or woman. And honestly, if she had used her main account, she wouldn’t have to. Her credibility would be evident. But when you come in as an anonymous player, who NOBODY on ladder and nobody in the pro scene…

The difference between a diamond player and a consistent top 30 dps (what Ellie was claimed to be) is massive, and should never be confused. In terms of numbers, it would be like an LCS player in Plat.

“ she shouldn’t have to, and she shouldn’t be harassed by others because of it.”

“How so?” By showing up, winning games and not trying to be an anonymous person in a league where nobody is anonymous. They played openly and played well. Every player has to prove themselves. Anyone familiar with the community knows how much weight they/we put on experience and a proven record of play. You can even…

You’re misreading the situation. It is literally impossible to say how Ellie being a woman effected this (and I will agree that it did) because her behavior is literally “out of line” and she threw fuel on the fire. The reaction to her hidden identity was because she was the only player to do so. Other female players…

1. You’re absolutely right. But here’s what the actual situation was. The person threatening to dox was a player named Haunt. He’s literally hardware banned from the game. He is not a pro-player, he’s just an asshole who used to play OW. The “harassment” was threads OverwatchTMZ asking who the heck this completely…
