Didn’t want to watch the video so used kagi’s ai summarizer:
Onepeg, a gaming YouTuber, tagged KieranTV in a tweet claiming that Nexon’s case against IM had been dismissed in both US and Korean courts, which was factually untrue.
When KieranTV questioned this, Onepeg doubled down and accused KieranTV of historically taking Nexon’s side without cause.
Reports from Korean media indicate that while the preliminary injunctions from both sides were dismissed, the judge noted it was likely Dark and Darker illegally stole from Nexon’s P3 game.
The case has not been fully dismissed and will continue to a full trial on the merits to determine the truth of Nexon’s claims.
Onepeg apologized for misrepresenting the facts but KieranTV remains skeptical of his motivations given his repeated doubling down.
KieranTV’s consistent position has been to want the truth determined fairly in court, not to take either side without cause.
Coverage of legal cases can be complicated as the truth may not come out clearly even if the right party wins or loses.
Fans of the game have previously harassed KieranTV for his neutral reporting on the case.
Onepeg should have fact checked before tagging KieranTV and making claims about the case’s outcome.
Both sides will continue arguing their cases as the full trial moves forward.
When they lock you into their hardware they get commission on third party game sales as well, or don’t have to pay other people commission on their first party game sales. Traditionally this is how console manufacturers made the bulk of their money but now Microsoft has game pass so they want to get it in front of as many people as possible I guess.
What other mobile console do these run on? Steam Deck? This will target more casual gamers in a device they already own while steam deck is more for enthusiasts.
True Mario kart 8 is peak Mario kart. I feel like they’re either going to keep adding content to it or do something new with the franchise like double dash did.
