Yea. There should be no exceptions. Subscription, MTX and F2P games are the biggest offenders and the type of games that started this movement in the first place.

That's their business, not mine, not yours.

You can decide if you want to use it or not, at your own risk. It's free software, written by people in their free time, they owe you nothing.

American police once again showing to us how unfit for the job they are.

What did we learn?

That's right! Stop buying games when or before they release!

Seriously though, what do people expect? Just wait a couple weeks after release and see what happens, it won't kill you.

Oh no! The poor multi-billion dollar football leagues are losing out on pennies from people who cant afford extortionate subscription services! Quick, take legal action!

Piracy is a service problem.

This is one of those shitty products that you can see being shitty from a mile away, yet all the coverage and discussion around it gives it a life it otherwise wouldn't have had.

I was happy with an ad at the side of the video. Then they started popping up over my video, then they started appearing before my video, then they started appearing throughout my video. Companies shot themselves in the foot with online advertising, banner ads and such weren't much of a problem, but once ads start disrupting the content we visit a site for, then we look to block them ads. More people blocking ads is less revenue, so they make the ads more aggressive... and the cycle continues.

And on a side note, Linus can fuck off.

MTX have become normalized and it's fucking depressing to see. So many people defend their existence, truly a sad time for the industry.

Valve could reduce their cut honestly, perhaps some program for independent developers to help them get on their feet. I don't think the top games or big publishers should be getting cut reductions.

Either way, Valve haven't been buying out studios for exclusive games, so Epic and Sweeney can go fuck themselves, they are scum.
