Assuming it's true that he tried to charge back a month later, fuck him. Waiting a month makes it even worse. I am sure the streamers waited with the money in their account for awhile just waiting for a charge back.

Bruh.

Some people, man. XD

"Just for comparison Uncharted 4 was 20x bigger than Splatoon 2. This shows the huge difference between Sony's first-party games and Nintendo's first-party games."

Well deserved

Why i left PC gaming

I think I saw this on neogaf too.

Appearntly hes parents are really well off... like... rich rich.
I doubt the 50k will hurt them in anyway.

The "kid" was jokeing about it, because he found it funny.
Supposedly he tosses around 2-4k like its nothing.

Very wealthy family.

Dad probably gives him 50k without batting a eye if he just asks for it.

Take away the unconfirmed rumor of him trying to charge back and he's the nicest man on earth who likes to support streamers.

If you demand respect or gratitude for your volunteer work, you're doing volunteering wrong.

Is he a kid? How on Earth does a kid have access to 50k dollars? And if he's an adult, why is he doing trying to do whatever he was trying to do? I hope his parents teach him the value of money. Also, I'm happy for the streamers, they got lucky in a big way.

You know it deserves the GOTY.
