Racist commentary would have carried even less weight than "Cloud based monopolies". The fat cats would have got their money and everything would swept under the rug and forgotten for the next thing to get upset about.

Most people don't know about or care that the popular gun simulator factory is merging with the spreadsheet and document program factory.

You are aware I was using that term ironically, yes? I do not in fact think racist takes are good.

Jedi Survivor: The store is now saying 102.51 GB for the S version, 133.97 GB for X. Which is close to the PC version's 155 GB requirement.

Tencent owns almost half of Fortnite and the underlying engine technology for a majority of the gaming industry, and 100% of Riot. No one cared. They own a supermajority of Supercell which is a bunch of mobile games popular in the US with adults and children. They own 5-20% shares in dozens of developers and publishers, including Activision and Ubisoft. No one cares. They've focused mostly on mobile and games where the majority of the player base is in SEA, but they're buying everywhere.

They are overreacting to the problems from what i've seen and heard from others. I guess i'll know tonight when I play too! But every other review has been able to finish the game.

I'm not sure where you're looking but Tencent's buy-ins tend to be a news story and still gets brought up pretty regularly. Like even if they buy 5% stake or whatever I instantly see a bunch of fearmongering about it. poo poo I saw people going "Well if Tik-Tok gets banned what about (x thing Tencent is involved in)" during the height of all that mess.

Admittedly I don't think I can separate what people tend to see vs what I notice because I pay a lot of attention to it. I honestly don't think people would know that Tencent is the largest gaming company in the world, despite even the constant news flow over the MS/ACTI buy. Most people would assume Nintendo or Sony.

We need huge corporations to further entrench themselves by buying venture backed startups that by design are so loaded with capital that there's no possible outcome except to go public, get bought, or flame out. Otherwise we won't have any more unsustainably funded venture backed startups! What then? Use one of the umpteen smaller video streaming sites that would have existed if there wasn't a competitor with the money to buy market dominance? How would that make a partner at Lizard Person Capital slightly more rich? Can't bear to imagine it. Also MS is pro-union and monopolies are good for consumers. This really is the funniest thread in games.
