Cardiovorax posted:All things considered, I can't entirely say that this might not be justified. PUA/desperate incel types are willing to do some pretty vile poo poo in the name of getting laid. It's a legit fear given how many "progressive" dudes turn out to be abusers.

It's very important when discussing sex crimes to establish that the victim was no angel.

Pylons posted:They're a mixed bag. Yes, they removed lootboxes, but also they have some horribly scummy "coupons" as a daily log-in bonus that really push you to spend money on them (because they expire in a day), and it also feels (though I have no proof of this) like they deliberately start giving you more of the "engagement" log-in rewards (like a credit booster) when you haven't logged in as much. They absolutely do.

Phobophilia posted:I'm not sure how best to describe Warframe's pay-to-win model, yes you can pay directly for power, but all the paid options are horrifically inefficient values, and feel much more like trap options for nailing people with very poor self control. Nailing people with very poor self control is a big part of the free to play model. Warframe is good but I don't like stuff like 72 hour timers.

Everyone thinks they're gonna be the one playing the economy, I'm not sure how many people manage to follow through. I like Path of Exile's system but I don't know how they make money with it, I guess people really want those cosmetics?

I said come in! posted:a lot of the worst people that have been outted, are partnered Twitch streamers, and I am wondering why Twitch is protecting them, instead of banning these accounts or at least removing their partnership. Same goes for Youtube. By doing nothing with these partnered accounts, these companies are saying what they did is acceptable and okay. Youtube's algorithm actively promotes scumbags. It their part of their business model.

Sleeveless posted:I really wish they just had an entirely separate internet for everyone under 18, it would make life so much better for everyone. This isn't even the first youtube guy to have his life ruined because a girl lied about her age and then later cashed it in for cancel points once she felt guilty.

Someone in the Games chat thread caught a probation for calling out that game dev who thinks there's a female conspiracy to destroy video games so I'd hold back until the mods define what  actually means.

Kaiser Mazoku posted:Dan responds quote:I stand by the fact that any interactions that took place of a sexual nature with the person in question were done so when she was 22 years old and we were both consenting adults, Dan said. To claim I engaged in any predatory behavior is simply untrue. I have made mistakes in the past, and I apologize if my actions or words ever made anyone upset, but those mistakes were never ill-intentioned, exploitative or illegal in any capacity. Not the best answer. Pretty bad actually.

Seems like that kind of culture would have a noticeable effect on Blizzard's storytelling, I wonder if there were any subtle hints... (gently caress them and gently caress Ubisoft.)

Wicked Them Beats posted:I think it would be fair to say the vast majority of consumers are completely and totally unaware of the conditions involved in the creation of videogames. That doesn't guarantee that they won't care if they're informed, nor does it necessarily suggest that they would be unwilling to make purchasing decisions based on such information, but they also aren't going to seek that information on their own. For instance the way Ubisoft managed to bury all their bad news with strategic video game trailer releases and now have pretty much gotten away with being a shithole.
