Quite a title. '40,000 people'. Ah, might want to specify what kind of people, I thought at first they had a mass firing.
Maybe why Square Enix went up is due to invester money, that often bloats bad companies.
"I've been unfairly banned!" — every cheater ever.
Oh don't get me wrong, I'm sure it's happened somewhere, sometime. But for the most part it's a myth. Like a glowing, rainbow-striped unicorn. Let's be honest, basically every cheater that gets caught runs somewhere to proclaim his innocence.
So is this like if someone tried to go after people for using Nuzlocke rules? Because if so 😂
Glad i only 'cheat' in single player games. 🙂
sounds liek i will never play anything square ever i hope ff bombs and they all get fired and that that new boy dies
Unfortunately, Kiriyu is a "crypto bro". So, this change in leadership is not likely to change the company's direction. Unless to board mandates such a change, which is also unlikely.
Edit: you mentioned as much. My bad. I had hoped SquareEnix would not have gone down this road. But, alas, the boulevard of broken dreams has claimed many a giant corporation.
Anyone who files false dmca's should be automatically fined for the amount they claim for, seems everyday some retard who thinks they are owed something is claiming other peoples work because someone else did something they think is plagiarism.
Would stop major corporations too, either sue and go to court immediately or eat the but hurt fine.
I got into warcraft 3 in high-school. The lord of the rings movies were coming out. Wow was thriving. Dota Allstars. The introduction to hearthstone. Blizzard lost me in shadowlands. Hearthstone is only good for battle grounds but nowadays I only play dota 2. Valve just dropped a highly anticipated big patch for dota and they gave us a hero with a mini patch.
Great video!
As someone who hates FIFA loot boxes and Sony's pissy attitude regarding the merger of Activision-Blizzard and Microsoft, I can't help but smile at watching both of them take a sideways hit by the Austrian Government.
I hope Matsuda retires graciously because this is a very tumultuous time for Square Enix with mixed AAA games outside xiv. And to be honest as an avid xiv player I'll just say they are very lucky to have good writers to carry the game because the gameplay is akin to a flailing namazu now. We'll see how XVI pans out and I'm looking hopeful for it.
Square are the vampires of gaming they will want full price for the trash web 3 crap they make so that you can work for them to make them even more money with the block chain scam. Good job Square your garbage is forever dead to me i wil not spend one cent on that web 3 trash
Blumhouse getting into indie horror is probably a good thing, but I'm going to wait and see
So happy to hear the pale beyond has found success. I'm sure you guys will continue the incredible work!!!!
I think ill wishlist "Workers & Resources" just to try to help them in the steam algorithm after that bullshit DMCA
Modders are great- but some of them are the most auteur, self-centered, unhinged people ever.
It's like "artist's first popular work" and they get very controlling about it's perception or the community forming.
That guy who DMCA'd Workers and Resources is certainly living in the clouds and if he goes full scorched-earth this easily- I can't imagine him IRL.
Making Sony pay the lootbox fee is genius. Since the publishers are ignoring laws maybe punishing the console companies will do something.
Fuck that cosmonaut mode guy. I'm as anti corp as the next commie and thats not how anything works. They didn't steal code or an art asset from someones mod. Players ask for increasing difficulties all the time. Imagine if game devs just stopped updating their games because a community member could say they suggested the idea first. This guy is trying to bully an indie dev legally to screw them over. Great "Community member" he was.
The funny(or sad) thing is that one of the teams banned for cheating managed to make to a major right before this banhammer dropped, and got eliminated in groups and ridiculed on the internet for it. So not only were there haters on the internet calling them cheaters during the whole group stage of the tournament, they got the unique humiliation of the haters being proved right.
Normally, some of the ''I was banned unfairly!'' are still cheaters…
Dead by Daylight is based on horror movies and horror movie franchise characters. And now they're going to make a movie based on a game based on the movies. Dumb.
Right, I'm going to quickly say this about the last part of the video – you need to change your headline. I came into this worried and prepared to be angry at Valve for fudging something up and making 40,000 people upset. Now I'm sitting here stunned and in a state where I should be happy that those people were cheaters but now disappointed. I understand you guys do news and you need to be catchy, but please don't fall into obvious clickbait. It makes you look bad.
Edit – Good to see that your game is doing well on Steam, I still haven't had a chance to buy it yet but I'm looking forward to doing so.
good move by valve
Yo your recent videos have been washed out for some reason, like the contrast is way up
Wow, that one guy. "I created the thought of Hard Mode".
Imagine making a guide for a game you enjoy enough to create a challenge run for and then being salty enough when the devs see it and try to implement it that you try to make it so no one can play it.
The "cosmanaut mode" issue just highlights why Nintendo goes so hard against modders and the like at times. They don't want to deal with this kind of crap.
So square enix proceeded from taking out a fire, to throw gasoline to the whole building and then light a match at it
Valve Shut down that type of secondary market by stopping funds being removed from Steam Wallets, to use no secondary market defence EA used, the same one one that failed here.
Contrary to what most people think, Valve's objection to Blockchain was limited to extracting funds from Steam to uphold this legal position.
Valve didn't stop the secondary market though, just restricted the card trading to Steam, a new secondary market arose, most of the money exchanged is off Steam, just like with EA,.
Thank you very much for this very wonderful video it really remind me a lot😍

People would always say they were mistakenly ban. I see lots of post bout it in Apex Legends forums and thats a game where cheaters can last almost forever.
>not getting replaced by YoshiP
NGMI
How much longer you gunna talk bout ya dumb game? Like the unsubscribe button is looking REAL great atm
Web 3 isn't a thing. No normie, with ACTUAL cash, wants it or NFTs.
It’s not a fine, it’s “surprise gifting”
Square needs to go back to making crappy jrpgs instead of trying to get rich off crappy monetization schemes.
Gamers hated on lootboxes when those started and it didn't stop it. Nft's won't be any different. Luckily I'm getting tired of gaming now.
Happy Death Day was a pretty good "Groundhog Day" Horror comedy movie. lol One that did what I thought would be impossible
They made a sequel to a "time loop" movie that was alright and worked story-wise.
Why do you keep railing against forspoken when it was a good game?
If I was sony, I'd pay that, then turn around and charge EA the same amount +20% for damages.
Lol valve can lock game files but activision is in bed with cheaters. Probably cuz they make them cough cough
web 3 is already half dead
What most people also don't realize, is that the disgruntled player that DMCA'd everything against that indie studio, was a lawyer that was abusing his power, and (through speculation) the strikes were most likely countered/dropped because had they actually gone to court, said player would've lost far more.
