Forums - Gaming Discussion - is Tencent becoming " too big"?

If you don't like it then you should stop giving them your money. In the meantime, keep your nose out of other people's business.

I haven't given them money to my knowledge, but freedom of speech laws grant me the right to complain about them

I was responding to the OP. It was advice not an order.

Ah, I thought it was more of a general statement rather than being directed to the OP specifically.

when they buy Fox soon which is likely, they will own almost every major movie besides the few WB owns and Sony pictures.

few decades ago they used to take companies apart for being this big

I know it's just an expression . But it bothers me when someone use it. It's human society that is bidding itself by the law of capitalism, not the world.

it's the reason that the cut between rich and poor people is getting always larger

It only feels that way.  Disney only released 8 movies all of last year, one of which was a nature documentary.  They've had the lowest output of movies of all the major studios every year this decade.  They've just got 5 big brands (Marvel, Star Wars, live-action remakes, Pixar, and Disney animated) and all of them have caught fire in the last few years except Pixar which is coasting.

Warner Bros., Sony, Paramount, Universal, and even Lionsgate are all out there making a lot more movies and making billions of their own.  Their movies just aren't as well liked, and that is completely audience related, not unfair business practices.

Give it a few years.  Disney's properties will cool down and they won't look nearly so dominant.

how much money have they made compared to every other major movie studio 



A company like Tencent? I kind of admire Tencent, most people don't know them and that's basically because they don't seem to hurt us.

They have a different mentality, a lot of their games are free to play and a succes, they don't spend a ton of marketing and then try to force us spending money in buying their games (like EA).

Look to PUBG on mobile , it is Free,League of legends Free, Fortnite Free.

They don't make a lot of money forcing us to buy the license to play their game but make money basically because players love their games.

Software companies I don't worry about, Yahoo/MSN/Myspace were so popular and now they are basically gone.

Amazon/Walmart are troublesome companies.
