Agreed about moderation being difficult. I get that. I just hate that these communities are going to be choked to death by garbage moderation before this site really gets going.

Tetris kind of has a long running title on this topic.

I dont even like tetris that much, but it has captured the attention of generation after generation.

It's probably one of the only games you could open in almost any setting and have people wanting to play it.

What evidence do people have it was copyright trolls? Nintendo isn't just assholes about this, they are the fucking poster boy for fucking up fan made content and support in the name of IP.

  1. Everybody is claiming fraudsters, but I don't see the evidence.

  2. Nintendo has had a huge crackdown in the last year on mods and video content including their branded IP.

People just need to move on from this shitty company and find new favorites. Nintendo is an abusive company that does not give a shit about you being a fan. They just want to make shitty annual release clones of games.

Please stop supporting this business.

While you're at it, please also quit buying Ubisoft games for a bit. That Star Wars Outlaws game needs to fail.

If gamers could just not put up with this shit for like 1 year, we could have significant corrective action in these teams.

I guarantee Nintendo would be begging for fan made content if they were no longer the monolith of Japanese development they have become.

Which is clearly necessary, and companies know it.

Open any MMO built and organized around a player economy (designed by a for-profit corporation) and you will see they know that individual wealth can upset the balance of the game.

They set maximum currency values, or they charge you periodic taxes for existing in the server.

When people are being honest about wealth, we all know the concentration of wealth in the extreme fucks up the system for everybody.

And video game systems do not even have a scarcity problem like the real world.

This seems to directly contradict the claims of the actual Hamas statements we are looking at right now.

Interesting that you can pick and choose which Hamas leader statements to believe in forming this narrative. Also, it is a little ironic that you claim others are engaging in bad faith while you manipulate which statements are valid from the same source.

As if Rockstar couldn't do both with the fastest profit generating piece of media of its decade.

The game literally set records for profit generation against all media types on release, they could have had 10 teams working 10 different DLC's simultaneously.

It was a choice to not focus on single player, and not a bad one.

At the end of the day, the content's longevity goes up when integrated with GTA online and would increase the activity count, thus profitability of online.

It's an AAA company working for a profit, not an indie title passion project.
