I mean, this is literally my strategy. I’m okay not buying games from companies who utilize revenue tactics I don’t agree with. Some will adopt in game ads and a lot won’t. I’m pretty confident in my stable of devs that probably won’t have to drop them. And if I’m wrong? Oh well. They don’t get my money.
Right? The only one that doesn’t really apply is cooking for 1, but I like cooking and cooking for 2 is often the same amount of effort.
You good. People complaining about business practices of a company who has become known for those exact business practices are wild. II personally just stopped buying from them because they’ve shown they no longer want me as a customer. I do feel like people like those in the article might do better to just stop buying from them. There are so many fucking great devs and games out there from indie to AAA, why would I continue to support a company who I feel is being unfair to their customer base.
My ex works for our state’s revenue department and they don’t give a fuck. The cases she would handle were honestly baffling how these people “made these mistakes”. They were either incredibly stupid or it was intentional tax fraud (it was intentional tax fraud). If you get tagged for an innocent mistake it seemed like an easy process to get out.
We know it’s not all of you. Your generation also fought for civil rights, explored space, invented jogging I think.
We have shitheels in our generation too. And I fear they’ll become more and more prominent as we get older. I hope we’re able to dampen their greed and intolerance.
Rhodes also seemed to be the only one physically affected. Like his muscles had atrophied. I also found that curious.
I play the Warhammer series, so I can’t speak much to Pharoh (their newest game release). The apology actually covers a lot of what the drama is about. Higher priced DLCs with okay content, old bugs from the previous installments unfixed, terrible communication with the player base.
I like the apology. It’s specific and they are putting their money where their mouth is. As long as they follow up, I think they can recoup a lot of goodwill. I’m hopeful because I love what they’ve done with the warhammer series and I want them to support it for years to come. It’s great right now and it has incredible potential.
