| Topic | somebody should do a call out video on Jim Sterling |

| ZombiePelican 07/31/18 7:40:45 AM #19 | Darmik posted... Where does he say anything about it only having 'cosmetic DLC' Nowhere because he doesn't fucking need to. Because there's no need to make the distinction because again literally anyone who isn't you knows this Darmik posted... (like that's this huge fucking difference)? Yeah, there's a huge difference between DLC and microtransactions. They aren't conveniently interchangeable for whenever it makes your beloved faceless mega corporations look good Microtransactions are designed to be a constant stream of revenue with fluctuating prices. DLC is a one and done purchase with a fixed price for said digital good. You can buy the same microtransactions over and over and over but you can't buy the same DLC twice. Darmik posted... I checked out when he was raving that it won't have any shortcut DLC which is completely incorrect. It doesn't, though. Literally all DLC in MHW are emotes and skins. And no, he was cheering that a major producer at Capcom saying they won't devalue the gameplay by adding a real world economy into it You'd know this is if you actually owned and played the game. --- |

| ZombiePelican 07/31/18 3:37:53 AM #29 | Darmik posted... Because they didn't want to advertise their game on a site that didn't give them a good review and GameSpot buckled because they were cowards. They buckled because they already had obligations to follow after being prepaid for a good score, stop this desperate corporate shilling Darmik posted... I'm not defending them. I'm correcting your ignorance like always. What they did was still shit. I'm not defending them I'm just defending them but I'm saying I'm not defending them so I totally am not defending them, that's totally how it works - Darmik 2018 --- |

| ZombiePelican 07/31/18 3:34:38 AM #12 | Darmik posted... ZombiePelican posted...Where does he say in the MHW video it will have microtransactions? It only mentions lootboxes. He doesn't need to distinguish the two when everyone who isn't you already knows what he's talking about One comment? This is reaching pretty hard even for your you. If you read the article it says outright that MHW won't have either microtransactions or lootboxes Why wouldn't you celebrate when a producer for a game says they won't put in microtransactions or lootboxes? Where as MS says they won't have lootboxes but will have microtransactions. Nothing to celebrate about Sorry but once again you have no ground to stand on as your desperate attempts at protecting your beloved faceless mega corporations falls short --- |

| ZombiePelican 07/31/18 3:25:17 AM #26 | Darmik posted... The threat was always about pulling advertising money. As in the ads plastered on the site. Not disobeying a bribe. Gee, why would they threaten to pull ad money? It's almost like they were upset they dudn't get an acceptable score for what they paid for. Darmik posted... Out of all of the hundreds of journalists out there that have written articles that have criticized how the gaming industry works (especially reviews) why do you think there hasn't been a single one who has claimed their outlet sold review scores. Because they'd get blacklisted and would have no career, Gertsmann was a huge fucking whistleblower for this shit and the fact you outright deny it, only shows how willfully ignorant you are. And all for the sake of defending faceless mega corporations from the criticism of consumers Absolutely pathetic --- |

| ZombiePelican 07/31/18 3:05:26 AM #20 | Darmik posted... Gamers have this funny mindset where a game that's reviewed too high is paid for and a game that's reviewed too low is clickbait. ITP: My precious mega corporations can never be at fault, it's those damn gamers expecting too much who are at fault Darmik posted... His example in the OP was a punishment made after the review too. If they simply asked for a score it wouldn't have happened What I said happened exactly like that. Gertsmann has said. He scored Kane and Lynch 2 lower than what they paid for and then threatened to pull ads so Gamepot canned him for it. Darmik posted... There can be conflicts of interest but ZP simplifies the issue as always. He never really knows what he's talking about. Paying for a review score is way too blatant. Says the guy who desperately reaches at every point possible for the sake of exonerating mega corporations --- |

I'll try to find the original versions I have screencapped but the GTA 5 one pretty much just whined about how no women were playable and their Witcher 3 review boiled down to "boobs are icky" The number is all that matters. --- |

| ZombiePelican 07/31/18 2:17:18 AM #5 | Darmik posted... Monster Hunter World won't devalue the game with loot boxes and instead just sell cosmetic microtransactions? This is the best! MHW has cosmetic DLC not microtransactions. But you know this because we went over this and even after putting it to a poll the majority of CE agreed it was cosmetic DLC and not microtransactions. --- |

| ZombiePelican 07/31/18 2:03:40 AM #1 | Giant Bomb was literally founded because Jeff Gerstmann got canned from Gamespot because he gave a game a score the publisher didn't deem high enough.
