I guess thats cool but it doesn’t solve the lack of alternatives.

If that were to be “fixed” it would be “unethical.”

Countries benefit from people buying their currency. Thats fucking dumb, you’re a dumb person.

The game company can afford to sell digital goods and services to Brazil at a fraction of the cost and profit.
If they sold redeemable codes on cards and cardboard locally it would solve their issue.
They should have to offer any two people online the same price when they list things.

I thought the lawsuit was about overcharging, but what you just described would make sales available to more people?
- Comment on New Steam Agreement gets rid of forced arbitration and waivers for class action lawsuits 1 month ago:
I think part of the issue is steam allows publishers to set region specific prices and lock users into a region.
You pay $89 for an annual subscription package, somebody in brazil pays equivalent to $32.58.
By definition it is discriminatory.

Honestly really pisses me off how often I see people try to normalize forced arbitration clauses.
It isn’t normal, and should never become normal, and in many cases should be outlawed.

FTFY

Sony still left the rootkit in the game, though. I think Helldivers 2 might still be active if not for that.
- Comment on God of War Ragnarok PC port suffers review bombing on Steam due to PlayStation Network account requirement 2 months ago:
“Review Bombing” implies these aren’t legitimate reviews from miltiple real peoples.
Sony is just selling an inferior product, that should be the headline.

Call me when they patch out the Rootkit.
The publishers really murdered a top tier game with this ill will.
