In this context, Tekken and other fighting games have competitive and content seasons. Where over a year winners from large international events earn places in a final, and new characters/stages are released
After the final there is normally a very large update to the game which comes with new game mechanics and large balance changes, and the start of a content season pass. With enough time before the first tournament kicks off(street fighter is being weird this year though)
For Tekken that season patch dropped recently but was a massive let down(fuck up) and the community wasn’t happy with it at all.
Pretty much for as long as online games have gotten updates. DOTA kinda codified it with the Battle Pass system but WoW battlegrounds/arena had seasons way before that. They’ll wait and do content/balance updates in chunks and that effects the meta in waves defined as “seasons”.
It’s everywhere now. It can be weaponized FOMO or a clean way to provide regular novelty without being tied down to legacy content.
wouldnt go as far as saying that hasan is a decent human being. no doubt, i rank im way higher than elmo. but that guy is still problematic on so many levels even if his believes align here there with my own. but to apply even more nuance to my shitpost: the most unfair part of my post was to generelise an individual single dev beeing the entirety of the soulless corporation of ubisoft.
/hmm, lots of fans around here. idk how one can fall for this disingenuous fuckface. but you do you.
Hasan, Elon and Ubisoft… what is this, a shit triangle?
no doubt, i rank im way higher than elmo.

you know who was disingenuous a moment ago? you.
wouldnt go as far as saying that hasan is a decent human being
Why? just to be clear decent doesnt mean you have to like him, it doesnt mean he is perfect. it just means he generally stands for whats good. he is a good person. its not really a high bar to clear.
decent, adjective
<span style="color:#323232;">1.
</span><span style="color:#323232;">conforming with generally accepted standards of respectable or moral behaviour.

i hope you realize how much right wing propaganda has gotten to you. if you really care, you should watch hasan’s interview with novara media.
And if you think he doesnt do enough, well he recently went to a bernie/aoc rally and streamed the entire rally to 50k+ viewers. he has done fund raisers for good causes. he went to union protests to raise awareness. many other things that i dont remember right now. thats on top of the positive political commentary he does, in a space that is almost completely dominated by right wingers. you dont have to completely agree with him to realize he is a genuine force for good.
tbh not in the mood to argue with you about it. if your a hasan fan. fair enough. i’m not. as i said i dont consider him as bad as elon, not even in the same ball park. but i still consider him shit. i was even subscribed to him a few years ago. i’ve seen enough first hand. my views on him arent filtered through takes of others.
so i was about to give you the win by going silent and just leave it be.
but:
i hope you realize how much right wing propaganda has gotten to you.
Not who you responded to, but can you share why you don’t like Hasan? I’ve mostly just seen clips of him talking with AOC and Bernie and when he covered the writer’s strike. I don’t know much about him and his content otherwise so I’m wondering if there’s more I should know?
Not the guy. I’ve watched a decent bit of Hasan and if you only listen to what he says, not examine what he does or who he does it for, then he probably seems like a champion for leftist causes.
That being said, he works for Night Media and definitely does not put his money where his mouth is. I personally dislike the hypocrisy.
Night media is a talent agency that was associated with Mr. Beast (you know, during his most popular years) and is still associated with Asmongold (you know, propaganda pointed at young men).
Hasan Piker is the son of a billionaire from Turkey. While I don’t know the specifics of how much money he’s received from him, if any, that doesn’t really matter. The man is a multi millionaire who has made his money on a platform that is absolutely riddled with propaganda mouthpieces. Many people do not see an issue with this, I do.
He also really loves to claim he’s a socialist, yet is a multi millionaire (after buying him and his family a 2.7 million dollar home in L.A.). Too many things don’t add up for me, so I stopped watching him.
All that being said, idk what’s in his heart of hearts. He might not be a bad guy, I might be assuming the worst. Make of it what you will.
Champagne socialist, supports piracy on innocent people, tankie - criticizes Christianity and American imperialism but supports Islam and China’s imperialism.
Wait, did you seriously create an account just to fanboy for Hasan - the champagne socialist, literal piracy supporter, and tankie? Wow, this is really sad.
This applies to the two streamers mentioned as well.
They are both grifters and scoundrels. Elmo is much worse of course, but it’s not exactly much of an achievement if one is better than the most corrupt and degenerate American oligarch.
anyways for context for those not terminally online, Hasan is a leftist twitch streamer (who supports Ukraine*), he made a tweet advertising ac shadows.
some far right elon fan made a brain dead comment about it and elon took the opportunity to also dunk on hasan (because surely he has nothing else to do right?) calling him a “a sellout”, to which hasan replied:
this bitch literally paid someone to powerlevel his character in poe2 lmao. wym i’m a fraud? elon i challenge you to a duel in elden ring. i will cook your fat rolling ass.
which got some 30k likes.
now hasan reply was already a ratio enough but then assassin’s creeds official acc decided to completely destroy elon:
Is that what the guy playing your Path of Exile 2 account told you?
its so bad that even asmongold isnt taking elons side on this one
elons isnt taking this well understandably. getting burned on a platform that he brought for 44b that gotta hurt lmao. like literally no one in the streamers/gaming space is taking his side. anyone that does immediately gets ratioed in the replies.
We should probably be thankful that that narcissistic manchild is so addicted to his social media. Imagine how much more destructive shit he could have accomplished if he actually put his mind to it.
He is a leftist political twitch streamer, supports Ukraine (just so we can get the fake tankie allegations out of the way), recently did an interview with bernie and aoc, and is just overall a solid character. Now admittedly he had some bad takes over the years but he has apologized/clarified them later.
Definitely massive. Never played it because I assume it’s too micro transaction focused but even more reason to believe they should have the cash to pay their talent
As someone who does actually play it - it’s only microtransaction focused if you get FOMO and like to collect all playable characters.
Usually you can guarantee a new high rarity unit once every two months or so of playing, but the real endgame is just exploring and there is no need to pay anything ever.
This is such a nothing article. “We asked the creative head of the Space Marine 2 team if he thought the PS5 Pro would improve the framerate. His SHOCKING answer??? ‘Maybe.’”
It’s bad and it’s kids. Like, the game is no better if you doin’t aim it at kids, but the fact they intentionally employ child labor as a gamified device is just disgusting.
It’s a game designed for kids with not enough moderation/limitations for a kids game. There’s literal porn games if you look in the right places (called ‘condo games’)
Yeah, the other problem with these kinds of open-ended social games that are heavily aimed at children is that adults who want to exploit children will play those games for that express purpose.
Same issue with games like VRChat, and to a less extent, Fortnite.
And I could say at least Kamala doesn’t have all her political opponents locked up. I wouldn’t do that though because boiling a politician down to a single issue doesn’t make any sense.
Maybe not to you, but when 15,000 children have been murdered and an entire population is starving, then boiling a politician down to a single issue does make sense to me.
I’m not apathetic, I’ve actively contacted my representatives demanding a cease fire. I’ve donated for aid for Gaza. Considering what Erdogan has done to the Kurds I find you argument extra rich. By all means continue to act all self righteous when I will be the one who has to deal with the other guy if you keep carrying water for his campaign.
Would you have an idea about what they would care about? Like are they just virtue signaling hard? Why not?
Like I could see Russians or Chinese or Republicans pushing this point just to sow division on the Israel point. But why “tankies”? Maybe I should just google it
people claiming to care about Palestinians but then encouraging votes against them. Voting any way but for Harris will harm them and that’s easy to reason through but they don’t care. Ergo they do not give an actual flying fuck about any Palestinian, they just want to be seen as doing so.
You can do the right thing for the wrong reasons and this is a classic case. He’s an ethno-nationalist. Ask him how he feels about Kurdish minorities or the genocide of Armenians.
