My issue with games like LoL is that they start making changes and adding so many new heroes to it, that eventually, unless you’re playing it several times a week, you fall way behind on gameplay. I never like taking a couple months off to play some other things and then feeling completely swamped on new content or having to recognize 150 different heroes.
You generally don’t buy a business and then figure all of that out. You figure it all out and then buy the business. IGN already would have 100% known the managerial setup at these companies.
You ever hear of mass layoffs at valve? You ever here of disgruntled employees? If them having incomes too low? Of any scandals?
The guy built and runs a private company. Doesn’t exploit his workers. Doesn’t try to influence government. Isn’t ripping anyone off. Promotes and invests in open source software. Gave permission for anyone who wants to use the os used on steam deck on any other handheld device, and here you are being pissed at him because his company is worth a lot.
Correctomundo. It gave me a nice laugh, too. I had forgotten I wrote in “Tits” this playthrough and several weeks had gone by before getting to that stardrop.
Was it actually for sale in countries that don’t allow psn accounts, or did people spoof locations to buy the game from those countries? I’ve been trying to find this out the past two days and still haven’t gotten confirmation that the game was or is for sale on steam in a place like Egypt. All I’ve seen is people saying it was for sale there, but it’s all coming from assuming it is, because others also not from any of those countries have made the same claim.
So; can anyone from a region that doesn’t support PSN confirm if they were able to buy HD2 with their correct region selected? I just genuinely want to know, because if so, I would think at least those individuals should be able to get a refund, even though they ignored all the warnings about the psn requirements.
A publisher in gaming bankrolls a lot of the costs and hurdles. Why do you think developers often use publishers? You think they just want to have a boss and give a cut of the profits away for nothing?
Do we ACTUALLY know it wasn’t geo restricted, though? Was it ever for sale in Egypt, or did players there use a VPN to buy it and ignore that the purchase page says a PSN account is required for online play?
I seriously don’t know. I keep hearing people making the statement you’re making, and I agree that is shouldn’t have been for sale in non PSN countries, but I haven’t actually seen someone from one of those countries say they bought it in a non psn region without spoofing their location.
