They weren’t blocking traffic. Disturbing public order is a much more nebulous term.

You’ve posted on nearly every single comment thread on this article. You are a dumb angry hater. The article isn’t even about PewDiePie directly, but the effect he had on a particular game. In your rush to cry about him you’ve completely glossed over the actual point of the article. No one even cares that you don’t…

You don’t have to say it, it’s pretty readily apparent. Like the fact you think I said you had to like him. The article’s about the effect he has on games, not whether you like him or not.

You did read the bit where they were hired by a Beijing-based company to do this, right?

Sounds like an existing vulnerability applied to new technology.

Well, it’s kinda the point of the article. If you can’t understand what a massive effect YouTube, and derived elements like Let’s Players, are having on the industry, you’re kinda stepping into a conversation you know nothing about.

They aren’t taking anything away. They’re stuff that previously didn’t exist. There’s so much potential energy in the system the thought that one PewDiePie article somehow prevents another article about something I care about is absurd.

I don’t care that other people like something I may not like. I hate MOBAs but I’m not going to go into every League of Legends article trying to convince people they shouldn’t like them.

Why do you care what other people think? You seem obsessed with trying to convince other people to not like him.

I don’t know where you’re coming from where shit is considered popular.

They’d both be separate objects though, while this basically just sticks the train to you so it need only move one.

I find I can more or less avoid him if I don’t want to see him. It’s not hard to just avoid his channel.

It’s often worse than merely trying to stop them from playing a particular game, but you get publishers like Nintendo trying to tap directly into the revenue stream of the streamers themselves. The equivalent of asking your free marketing team to pay YOU for the privilege.

The nGage required you to remove the battery because they put the card behind it. I don’t know of any smart phone that does the same.

Some android phones have micro SD card slots that can give you more storage space (expandable). You typically can’t (as far as I understand it) easily unplug the thing and plug it into a different device, though, so if you’re trying to do something like bring some films with you on a trip and want to be able to access…

Well, it’s an easy way to upsell the pricier model high end phones that tend to differ only in the amount of non-removable storage they come with. Apple does a lot of that for pretty much every device they sell. Why offer the ability to put in cheap SD cards when you can sell an equivalent amount of storage for a…

Good old Kinja. It’s almost like they’d prefer people not post.

More than just being unwilling to play a woman, I’m amazed at how many people willing profess not wanting to play anything but a self-insert avatar. I wonder how many of these players actually hold true to that, or only balk when the avatar in question is a particular type of person (be it a certain minority or…

Video games have such huge potential when it comes to narrative. Being able to try an experiment like this that forces the player into a role they not only have no choice in, but that the developer did not preconstruct too is something relatively unheard of.

Given there are plenty of existing websites that host mods for free, what Steam happens to be doing with the Workshop is relatively inconsequential in terms of offsetting development costs. If Nexusmods is a sustainable model, what exactly is Valve adding that remotely justifies the cut they were asking for?
