Rebellion gets its 'fix

UK independent developer Rebellion has signed up Prefix IT's asset management tool.

Rebellion has gone through a massive growth phase over the last 18 months following the acquisition of three other UK studios - Core, Strangelite and Awesome - which have turned it into an operation with over 280 full time development staff.

This really doesn't mean anything, when you can pirate PC games with a mature or AO rating. 😂 You can pirate without any age restriction bullshit.

wtf are you talking about? they are talking about raising the age in EU for games that have loot boxes etc. in them. This is for online games mostly you absolute maroon.

Controversial take but maybe parents could start parenting and be more attentive and involved in their kids life? Then maybe other adults can buy whatever they'd like without worrying about "the children" that aren't in the slightest a concern to em, cause…they're not their children? Also we don't need to stop letting out of touch boomers in government from deciding what is and what isn't "good" for people in the US. There is a surprising amount of things that are banned in this country that in multiple other countries are more of a net positive, yet for some reason they aren't allowed here.

this doesn't look all that bad maybe you should read it first. daily login, battle passes, loot boxes etc. will affect the rating although this only affects games that are going to be released from june onward, for now at least. they are looking at addictive design which are not good and online games are filled with them. though im not sure this will do much anyways so you're fine.
