If you want to yap about something long, you will have much more success getting people to click on a Youtube video than text content published elsewhere. Especially if you already have a large subscriber base in the first place, Youtube is where his audience is, and once his audience clicks it the algorithm will keep spreading it even further.

A couple years ago I wrote a very long text essay about some controversy surrounding a niche game I play. It got a small handful of clicks within the community for that game, but that was it. A few years later, some more news developed, and I decided to do a half-remake half-followup in video format. It was very minimally edited because I don't actually know shit about video editing, in fact I literally did most of it in Google Slides. But I knew that putting it on Youtube would result in significantly more exposure no matter how amateurish it was. Ended up taking off really well, 29k views, which is about 27k more than the text version got.

And I was a nobody publishing my first video. Ross has 413k Youtube subscribers, and in the 9 hours since this video went up, it's at 337k views. Seems like this Youtube thing is working out well for him.

Some games might not be playable. But other games still are. Calling the system a paperweight is not accurate.

That is a ban from online services. The word 'brick' has a specific meaning, this isn't a brick.

I'm talking about what has actually happened, you're talking about what hasn't happened.

OP said it should just be online bans, I said that it is, and you're umackshuallying over what hasn't actually happened.

If it ever happens, we can resume this conversation, but until then?

The fact that they are doing online bans instead is how we know.

But like I said, tell you what, if it happens then we can talk.

You're fixating on legalese boilerplate, I'm talking about what they're actually doing.

Go back to the start of this conversation. OP said it should just be online bans, I said that it is, and you're umackshuallying over what hasn't actually happened.

Because regardless of what some boilerplate legalese says, they are instead doing online bans.

Let me rewind to the start of this conversation.

prevent access to online services...that's all they should be allowed to do. I don't think I'd be able hold back on any company that decided what I do with MY hardware.

That is what they do. It's an online ban, you can still use a banned console offline.

Because regardless of what some boilerplate legalese says, they are instead doing online bans. Fixating on a hypothetical when it's the opposite of what's actually happening borders on misinformation.

Scroll back up, this conversation started with the top comment saying it should just be online bans, I said that it is, and then y'all come at me saying it's actually bricks. It's online bans.

No one has had their console remotely bricked. If it happens, we can talk, but until then you're just getting mad at imagined hypotheticals.

They've only ever done online bans. There's a lot of misinformation being spread around about bricks, but that isn't what is happening.

I'll give you that the ratio of puzzles:combat was a bit much. But combat was fantastic, what do you mean by it not working?

I'm surprised they've gotten away with shipping preloaded SD cards for so long. That was a risk waiting to blow up in someone's face, though it obviously isn't fair to be going after some guy rather than the distributors.
