| Chazore said: What gets me is people excusing or trying to lessen the fact that Epic did this on purpose beforehand, defaming another company and trying to make money off parody branding, while at the same time trying to weaponize kids/gamers to fight a corp battle, it's batshit insane how far regular people will go to excuse that disgusting crap.
It feels like the whole Pepsi/Cola campaigning and adverts for years, have effectively dulled the general populous into siding with corps today, rather than going against them. |
Yup... it's the cancel culture live in today. People are so eager o sie with the "underdog" that they throw all sense and reason out the window. Being oblivious to the fact that said "underdog" could just actually be 10 times worse than the alternative. If Epic is willing to do and try these underhanded techniques now, can anyone imagine what they would do if they were in the position of steam or apple?
The way I always saw this was simple. If epic were so good, then they should just give the MXT stuff for free. But what they are doing is simply trying to cut out the middleman and sell their stuff (at full price) directly to their users for the sole singular purpose of making more money without having to increase the price of the items. And as I always said, that's all well and good, it's their right to do that. But they shouldn't come back bitching when said middleman cuts hem off their own platform.
