Went from an “instant buy” to a “never purchase on principle”. Such a shame.
That’s exactly what I did after Activision fucked over Infinity Ward. I used to play them all the time, but haven’t bought anything Call of Duty since.
Doesn’t mean much, but I’m doing what little I can.
To be fair, if you’ve bought one call of duty, you’ve bought them all.
I’ve literally lost track of what call of duty we are even supposed to be on, which is the most up-to-date one. Does even have campaign mode anymore.
That’s kind of where I’m at with Borderlands 4 and that shit stain Randy Pitchford. His situation isn’t as bad as this I think, but it’s a deal breaker none the less. Don’t bite the hand that feeds mother fuckers.
Il buy it on sale once the game tanks and they fire that asshole.
But I haven’t been looking forward to a game as much as Subnautica 2, and now it’s off the radar…
I’m wondering if the first one needs to go from a game I recommend highly (or upvote recommendations of if I’m too late) to one I no longer acknowledge because the same assholes probably get paid from each of those sales, too.
There’s been an interesting development; Krafton have responded with some pretty direct claims and the founders are suing.
TL;DR the most important claim seems to be
In particular, following the failure of Moonbreaker, KRAFTON asked Charlie to devote himself to the development of Subnautica 2. However, instead of participating in the game development, he chose to focus on a personal film project.
Ever since the Doom Eternal Mick Gordon situation there has been several more controversies (Bayonetta’s VA pay comes to mind) where it seems the first person to make the claim is hiding something. Is it an attempt to control the narrative? It has always backfired so far so we’ll see if that trend continues.
I have an unrelated headache, but the constant allcaps of KRAFTON really makes me want to nail someone’s dick shut.
Amen. Just gives boomer vibes and makes the whole thing more irritating.
It’s worse than boomer vibes. It’s corporate vibes.
Krafton has a history of misleading, lying to, and screwing over developers. Nothing they say is worth the bandwidth used to transmit it. Given the timing and other statements, it seems abundantly clear that this is nothing more than a brazen attempt to steal a quarter of a billion dollars from the developers.
Yar har, fiddle-dee-dee Do what you want cuz a pirate is free…
I am a pirate!
Yo ho ho and a magnet link for thee.
God damn, I was looking forward to it but that’s fucked up.
I also was. Extremely disappointing. I will “find” a place to download it though without having to pay.
Wow that’s some bullshit. They deserve this boycott.
