“Chris Lee is now looking to pass an ‘accountability’ measure similar to that with gambling company and cigarette companies that will have to warn users about the dangers in this case of microtransactions and also take accountability about severe cases involving people below legal age and individuals classed as vulnerable.
In my opinion, Chris Lee can be the man that saves or improves gaming for the better, with the quality of video games deteriorating more and more with de...
Hahaha Bethesda is savage! You “single player games are dying!” people, yes they were mocking you.
I didn’t say both sides were unreasonable, I said both were a joke in terms of this “serious conversation” going. Neither side listens. Let’s be honest, you’re not describing a conversation, you’re describing negotiations. You are using your own dollar as hostage and being outspoken, that’s fine no issue from me. You are mad that the loss of your dollar alone doesn’t matter and goes on deaf ears, I get it. When you try to weaponize law or pretend to be a diplomat in peace talks then my eyes s...
I much prefer seeing the devs showcase their games in dev diaries. Netherrealm does a good Job at this and stuff like the prey live stream were fantastic. Nioh had great streams and betas. Sure it’s spoilers but it’s controlled spoilers and it’s much more informative/entertaining than some opinion piece from a writer that settled for gaming journalism. Or some activist that sees easy pickings on the gullible. We don’t need magazines anymore, we can follow Sony on twitter. It’s nice to have al...
No I’m saying neither side brings anything worthwhile to the “conversation”. There is no middle ground, you’re not playing compromise like your fighting for custody of a kid. They sell shit. You like it or you don’t. EA is going to do what EA does, you are going to do what you do. We don’t have “gaming ambassadors”. None of you speak for me and I find it insulting that people would try to portray themselves as such.
Nope. It’s just an observation of the current “serious conversation”.
Paranoid? What a pathetic statement. How about you look at the history of government involvement in industry. Any industry. That’s a start....
That’s not much of a conversation though is my point. What is there to discuss, you are making a statement you see as factual. It’s simple in your view. That’s not a conversation, it’s a lecture.
Right? I’ve seen some fkd up shit on eBaums world way back in the day.
“Conversation” doesn’t work with people who don’t want to listen. I’m talking about both sides. You’re both a joke.
Yo is ebaumsworld still a thing lmao... damn..
I decided that I can wait 😏
I’m with you dude.
“Thing is, less than 10% of players on any given game actually purchases additional content. The only exception is DLC content for more popular MP games. Even the big DLC releases for SP games rarely break 20%. So, no, the community as a whole isn't partaking in these things, rather a very small portion of it.”
I could believe that. People move on from games quickly now. That 10% in the average MT sales is the equivalent of 500k individual units sold, at least. This is ...
The gaming community has been supporting this shit for a decade lol. If it didn't sell it wouldn't exist. I couldn't believe they were selling quick fatality tokens in mortal kombat. how lazy are people? in the end it's none of my business, i just don't partake.
The gambling angle is a farce. I think it undermines legitimate points brought up regarding abuse.
Most of these games are rated mature. If some 15 year old kid with no bills w...
No but thor was fantastic, i will give them that.
- Gambling was ruined a long time ago lol. The only way to gamble in my state is to get on a boat and go out to international waters. That's my point though, you are actually pleading for the people that ruined gambling to grant themselves authority over something you supposedly hold dear, the gaming industry. You are indeed asking for protection in something you find morally offensive. You don't have to agree with me, you responded to me though so you're getting an answer. I don&...
Disney is garbage. They even managed to ruin espn somehow. I would rejoice on the MvC:I roster alone.
Can we get Marvel away from Disney while we’re at it?
You don’t listen to EA lol. The only thing they talk about is identity politics garbage. “We’re so diverse, please don’t vote for us as worst company ever this year”. EA has nothing worthwhile to say and they won’t bend over for you like they will an sjw. I get that you’re trying to be an sjw “because it works” but that’s just not my steez. I’ll talk shit to you just like I talk shit to them lol. I don’t see that much of a difference honestly. A small fraction of a community making themselves...
