I actually don't know what you're talking about.
The whole lootboxes thing has been in high focus for the past decade, but you're the first gamer who doesn't know what are people talking about and it's just cosmetics? I'm sorry, WHAT?
This is incredibly misleading.
Please learn why they were sued and stop spreading lies like they were easily issuing refunds. Your argument suddenly starts falling apart when you learn the facts and remove the gabe-glasses.
Do you have any more info on this?
Actually, I likely don't. This comes from era of forums, constant leaks and insider info. You might be able to find more after terms like "L4D and Xbox dlc pricing"
Here is one article that touches on the topic of why this happened: https://www.xboxachievements.com/news/news-3496-l4d-1-dlc-pricing-down-to-ms-not-valve.html
Note that this was a problem for Xbox, but valve for whatever "mysterious" reason decided to do that for PC too.
Rest of your comment is basically downplaying shitty things. Yeah, no, sorry, you did not convince me yet to join this religion
Why is it a bad take? Valve is indeed a corporation. I'm also someone who has grown irritated by their ways of screwing up good games for profit (you know, hat simulator, gambling, push for centralization, etc.). There is also a history of really sketchy anti-consumer choices basically no one is aware of, like them getting sued for not issuing refunds and being forced to implement refund system or accepting money from Microsoft to not release a free DLC to L4D, but rather as a new game (just so they don't set a good example), paid mods fiasco, barely fighting back against adult content purge, etc
All your examples are of external influence, not internal ones like pain or sleepiness
AI'fying your waifus might not be the worst use case scenario
I literally asked you about HK and Tibet. Note that by colonialism I include annexation.
I'm literally arguing against that while you seem to be in support of it.
When was the last time Europe "consumed" a territory? What happened to Tibet, what is happening to HK and what will happen to Taiwan? What is happening to Ukraine? Are you sure it's the west who's colonial and not the other way around? Lmao even
1895
No, this is 2025
You're either very ignorant or enjoy spreading misinformation.
Sir, I'm informed accordingly to modern age. I don't follow your colonial mindset or base reality on something that happened generations ago. Now that's prime example of stupidity.
No that's acorn
No, it's Taiwan, a country.
D..dude. the only thing I pointed out is that the languages sound similar. That is an objective fact. Then you went ahead and wrote entire book about how much you are not Italian while I never said such things. Yeah, nationalism is indeed one hell of a drug, calm down lmao
