I mean, he had an opinion and now he’s unemployed.

Have you actually played call of duty? It’s certainly a very greedy game, but nothing about the gameplay would suggest that the overall experience is catered around people spending any amount of money.

I think you’re forgetting how behemoth Activision and the parent company Activision-Blizzard are. Even if something challenges call of duty it’s not going to destroy it over night. Titanfall 3 isn’t going to get announced tomorrow, get released next year, and reduce Call of Duty’s player count to 0 in just as much…

I think y’all are overthinking it. I don’t think anyone is trying to ruin anyone’s (well, not no one) fun or trying to fetish police, I think it’s just another way to interact with the meme. You’ve got some people getting horny for giant big tiddie goth gf and then you’ve got other people saying ew. Very little of…

I don’t condone harassment or threats of any kind, but it’s a scenario that plays out time and time again. No one can expect you to release a game you haven’t announced. Don’t tell a 17 year old he’s going to have his first kid by the time you tell him when the game will even be coming out. You can level set…

Here's a hot take: $350m is a bloated budget and a decade of game development has never ever been a good thing ever.

The below statement is likely 100% true, but also 100% misleading. Many were without power for an extended duration. An “actionable” plan for dealing with the inability to work from home is to work from the office. The consideration of what makes someone “general staff” is purely subjective and someone experiencing an…

That’s how contracts work. You sign one and you’re bound to the terms you agreed to. No one forced them into that to begin with. The fact that you don’t see securing exclusive products as a form of market competition shows your lack of knowledge in basic economics.

Epic hasn’t prevented anyone from doing anything. They made business arrangements with the publishers of said titles. Epic isn’t locking anyone out, if anything it’s the publishers/developers who are the blame if you must blame someone, but I suppose if you did that then you wouldn’t be able to buy Borderlands 3 or…

A quote to think about “any crime for which a fine is the punishment is only a crime for poor people.”

You have the consumer choice of doing exactly what you have been doing- not buying anything on Epic.

He wouldn't have been arrested just for hacking it. The law he broke was selling it, not hacking it to begin with.

By the time you’ve actually been arrested you’re already “guilty,” even if you somehow get acquitted (which you won't). From what I've read your life is just kinda over once you get arrested.

One of the major successes of the game is that it doesn’t feel like dying is the punishment for sucking. I mean, it kind of is, but it feels like it’s a natural part of the game cycle of getting better and upgrading your character. The way the friendly characters respond to your death helps, the fact that you get real…

I’m having a great time with the game when I can find time to play and I was one of the people who allowed his hype for the game to span years of waiting, but I don’t think I let my expectations reach into the realm of the literally impossible.

I’m thinking it might be Hades but Ari made a bold choice by not numbering the list. I think that’s great, rather than ranking the games Ari’s saying “these games are what I liked to pay this year in no particular order. They’re all great so check them all out.”

What’s a “rare gokus?”

AC Valhalla had a strong start, but it blew it’s load too early. The game would have been better if they focused on the revenge plot against Kjotve. It lost the plot after that and I got bored with it. On the other hand, despite Cyberpunk’s issues I have played more of that in there few days since it has launched than…

They tied it themselves by taking pre-order money and setting a launch date. You can't delay a game with no set release.

A few points:
