Thank for for this list.
I was prepared to add to my boycot list, but I guess sometimes the biggest assholes are exactly who we already expected.
So absolutely no one I respect. Nice. ESA go fuck yourself.
Yes. I was worried while I read the list, but known assholes top to bottom. That's nice, I guess?
What's the point in Microsoft shooting against "their own" product? I mean, the option for public or private servers is literally built into the game. Also there is the option for playing together over LAN which you could also argue is a private server.
That's a left over from the indie days. I highly doubt they'd make that available in a new game. But in this case I think its probably a law person that has no clue about games.
If you have the facts, you pound the facts. If you have the law, you pound the law. If you have neither, you pound the table. This is the ESA pounding the table, and the goal is to confuse the gerontocracy LARPing as lawmakers.
This is why tech has gotten so out of control in the US. In the past 40 years, this industry has had so many revolutionary inventions while our legislators on average get older and less likely to understand the newest technology, thereby making them more susceptible to being misled or misleading others. Combined with our legislators not giving a fuck about actual economics, this is how we have oligopolies everywhere in the US with cartel behavior
Things have gotten so out of control because people have gotten stupid and lazy and put up with all of this shit.
People have gotten stupid because billionaires have orchestrated the gutting of education and people are too exhausted, not "lazy", because they're overworked by billionaires.
Capitalism is always the problem. Okay, very rarely organized religion or genuine natural disasters, but almost always capitalism.
Religion is fucking up a lot more than you think
It's not warming the planet so it's definitely a backseat evil right now
Also true. It doesn't help that the most successful and influential people in this time-frame have also been widely manipulative by pulling the ladder to success up with them, dismantling education, and increasing the amount of sugar and other unhealthy things in our food
The way I see it there are two possible reasons:
I get why everyone is on this list except Netflix. Am I missing something? Cause that seems a tad bit random.
Netflix has a studio that publishes games on mobile, one of their most well known product is partnering with Take2/Rockstar to port the Definitive Edition of GTAIII/VC/SA to mobile, as questionable as they are.
Saruman and Gríma just want to shape and influence the largest cavalry force of Middle Earth...
