I hope they can make it work, but honestly I don't see how. The two games share very little similarities outside of being blocky survival games, and even then the focus on their respective genres are completely different. With VS being a gritty realistic survival game with very few fantasy elements at all, and Hytale being a fantasy RPG with some survival elements.
It'd be like Project Zomboid coming out and saying they're going to work on a fantasy gamemode where instead of zombies and guns, you have goblins and dragons and magic and shit. Sure, why not, but at this point you have to change so much about your game's identity that you're going to end up making a completely different game inside of your game rather than just a separate gamemode.
The auction also includes the stapled Switch 2 console and box, the staple that did the damage, and a pair of the GameStop CEO’s underwear, which I will explain within.
Whatever you are willing to pay, since they are most likely looking for a new job. They have experience in damage stacking and liability research. And stapling.
Quite active, actually. Despite the owners trying to kill it by removing porn, it keeps on trucking. Just you, your dashboard, and the never ending urge to curate the feed.
I check in occasionally for inspiration for writing, still very good for that! No idea how the porn is going. I’m assuming fine, I don’t think they actually managed to get rid of a lot of it.

“And here we have yet another product of double human stupidity: one for stapling an electronic and another for buying the entire thing for over 120k dollars”
Yeah, even if it’s a big brand attachment or whatever, I’m never going to complain about a big charity donation. (as long as it’s not a bogus charity, of course)
Makes sense. Individuals regularly get patents in America and individuals regularly get cancer in America. It’s just an asset albeit one that may have emotional value. But cancer will cost you your heirlooms here too
In an actual free market all the corporations would act like this, because shit like this is what people want out of a business they patronize.
You will recall that there was a bit of a fuss a month or so ago when an undoubtedly-harried GameStop employee stapled some customer receipts directly to Nintendo Switch 2 boxes—and through the boxes, and into the Switch 2 units themselves. It was all quickly resolved, without lawsuits or fistfights, and with the ugliness now behind it GameStop is looking to make some proverbial lemonade by auctioning off the Switch 2 killer for charity.
No lawsuits, no fight required by affected consumers
The company made it right and turned a bad situation into a PR move that helps a charity.
I really thought we’d see some kind of ethical capitalism out of the whole GameStop thing but it never really spread.
