Topic	Jim "Sterdust" Sterling takes the business of lies
ZombiePelican 10/17/17 6:39:58 PM #86:	D-Lo_BrownTown posted... The people who are dumb enough to be "tricked" when developers downgrade a games graphics are the same people who don't care that they were downgraded. If this were true we wouldn't be talking about them years after release. prettyprincess posted... thank goodness I hadn't and you continued with your non-point namecalling for lack of being able to justify it or address that I did make a point, you just decided to handwave it and tried to deflect which I'm not allowing. So come up with a real rebuttal of gtfo 50Blessings posted... Video Gaming, especially AAA video gaming, is a fucking business. For the hundredth time, this is justifies fucking NOTHING. Where does it say in business school that you HAVE to fuck over consumers as much as humanly possible. It doesn't. I am sick of deluded corporate thralls like yourself sticking their neck out for companies who view you as nothing more than a cow full of money to be milked dry. 50Blessings posted... So of course the bottom line is going to come first. Too bad this isn't just about the bottom line. It's about sucking up as much cash in the most cynical and anti consumer ways possible. If it was just about the bottom line we wouldn't have Take Two's CEO saying netting billions of dollars from a single game release isn't good enough and that they NEED to push microtransactions harder You can be the perfect corporate lapdog all you like but people like Jim and myself demand quality and refuse to invent excuses to make multibillion dollar corporations pretending to be paupers look good 50Blessings posted... You want the gamer and the art and everything else to come first? Stick to the indies. That's the closest you're going to get. The indie scene is now picking up bullshit tactics from the AAA space, PUBG is getting lootboxes, Ark got an expansion when it was still in early access, and We Happy Few has doubled it's asking price, added a season pass and got a collector's edition with NO game. Your point is moot when greed is in play AAA or indie regardless, so I and everyone here on CE would appreciate of you stop being such a blatant shill, it's embarassing --- https://i.imgur.com/SiKIsHD.jpg https://i.imgur.com/V62ygzP.jpg https://i.imgur.com/M0MRS6S.gifv https://i.imgur.com/Lc56ify.jpg <cite>ZombiePelican posted [p:888623508] in Jim "...
