Regardless of whether there’s actually any uproar at all among the fans/people who preordered, this is just standard practice for retails and customer service in Japan (at least for reputable companies).

On the eshop it's impossible to get a refund for anything, including pre-orders.

Except every time someone tries to create a league for that pipeline, none of those players end up on a roster anyway. So banking on an NFL paycheck thanks to the XFL is fucking stupid, especially if this is the shit they're gonna give you. 

You’re right. I made 3k more than that (30k) fresh out of school as a QA technician in 1998. Those are slave wages in today's market. 

He is doing the right thing here and I agree completely that the pay is ridiculous, but it’s 50K in approximately 3-4 months... Were it not for the significant bodily injury this would be a pretty great deal. Unless it comes with lifetime medical coverage I would still decline, but 50K every 10 weeks is a hell of a…

This. If anything, the XFL should take the opportunity its terrible QBs present and invest in other position players that can make a marginally interesting balanced game rather than pouring all their money and hopes into umm.....let me see...Matt McGloin? Ooof.

“How are you going to sit here and get all these people together and try to get the best talent for your league and pay them $27,000?...

I’m honestly surprised that the players wont be independent contractors. 

Why pay QBs $500K? Spread the wealth around to the other players. It’s secondary league/offseason football. Nobody is watching the XFL because of the QBs who can’t make 3rd string NFL practice squads.

The Filoni shows’ strengths were never in their visuals, though.

It looks fine, for a CG anime, though I still think traditional animation (maybe aided by CG in the effects department) would look better. My main gripe is, that the Major looks indeed too cute for the kind of character she is (in the movies and SAC). I’m curious what they will do with that fact. It could be used in…

I don’t care what it looks like its The Witcher 3 portable. Thats like gaming alchemy. It shouldn’t be possible. But it is!

One of the biggest and worst failings of social media in general is the outright incapability, willful and otherwise, to regulate their own platforms effectively. Part of the reason Twitch even started featuring other kinds of streaming content that wasn’t exclusively about gaming was because there wasn’t enough money…

I don’t play Fortnite but God-gamn their end of season events cool. I wish other games did stuff like this. 

I haven’t played Fortnite in over a year (and really only played STW when I did), but even as a bystander I really do enjoy the amount of production value and very impressive technical effects they employ in these events.

But imagine being the person who doesn’t follow Fortnite news and logged in to play today.

They went dark on all their platforms (twitter, youtube even fortnite’s official website). I know they are totally doing it to generate mystery and hype but damn it’s totally working.
