You’re not equating “bizarre” with “unfunny,” are you? The bizarre sketches are the best.

There have only been three seasons of The Ranch so far.

Sure, but only $2 more. I know I was exaggerating a bit, but the point still stands.

Right, but my point was that there would be no reason for them not to still sell it at the higher price so they could take in more revenue. Sure, the difference in the split means they don’t have to charge as much to take in the same amount as they’d have gotten from Steam, but that defeats the purpose of going with…

That kind of thing is what I’m afraid of. I wouldn’t be surprised at all if they make it completely exclusive to iOS and Apple TV apps. Heck, I’d be surprised if they *don’t* do that. And if they do, it’ll be completely useless to me. (Though I could possibly see them offering episodes of stuff to purchase on iTunes,…

“it’s $10 cheaper on the Epic store than it would have been on Steam thanks to Epic only taking 12% of revenue as opposed to Valve’s 30%”

I’ve got to disagree on your point about the category being an issue. The Best Animated Feature award first became a thing in 2001, and in the 73 years of the Academy Awards prior to that, only one animated movie had ever been nominated for Best Picture (Beauty and the Beast). Since then, two animated movies have been…

I get developers wanting to go with Epic since they get a higher percentage of the revenue, but what do people in the comments here not like about Steam from a consumer perspective? I’ve never had a single issue with them.

“Except it’s not monopoly-adjacent.”

“Both stores are free to download so the consumer isn’t paying anything extra due to this exclusive deal.”

What? I thought they made a point of saying that they don’t modify cards after they’re released. I could swear that I read that in another article here within the last few months or so.

“...is literally the definition of a ‘preorder.’”

I’m not against it completely, but you’ve got to admit that when they’re advertising the movie with a fart joke, it’s can be a bad sign. Teen Titans Go! to the Movies is the only exception I can think of offhand, and that trailer almost came across as though they were really making fun of movies that do that.

This. And some of them still don’t come to my area at all. I did get to see The Night is Short, Walk on Girl (which was amazing!), but Lu Over the Wall never came.

Yeah, I’m honestly baffled by the fact that people seem to have hated it so much even if they aren’t part of the group that’s against it because they were all women. I thought it was good. And I say that as someone who would have preferred an actual Ghostbusters III and is happy about the fact that they are doing it…

The idea that it “cannot sustain a franchise” is ridiculous. Even if you didn’t personally like anything after the first movie, the general setup could absolutely sustain a franchise.

True, and it’s not too bad of a point (in fact, they actually do have a small amount of Machinima stuff on VRV already, and have for a while), but I’d be extremely surprised if they brought everything back. Practically nothing that was exclusive to the Fullscreen streaming service has been made available again ever…

Honestly, that’s the only explanation I can think of that would make any sense.

I mean, if not for the extra ninety-nine there seemingly making it cost almost ten thousand dollars, that would actually be a great deal. I wish more stuff that’s originated on the Internet would get physical media releases.

Agreed for the most part, but not quite on the point where the company is “barely doing anything” with the IP. Depending on how little “barely doing anything” actually is, fan games might help to keep the IP in the spotlight for long enough for the IP holder to come around to making something with it again, or even…
