I could see that being a possibility. Also makes me fear that this could become a common tactic since that's exactly what happened with Dan. The last big allegation was faked but there were actual people mistreated by him.

the "think of the children!" angle on gacha poo poo is really strange and seems to completely disconnect from the reality in which adults are dropping enormous sums of cash on jpgs because of sex, not gambling, reasons.

referring to it as gambling, while correct, also feels a little weird to me because i grew up around gambling where the goal was to make your money back or better (material gains) instead of "i hope i get the good jpg this time" (you can only jack off to it). where was this pearl clutching with the slot games in pokemon or anything featuring poker lol. maybe it happened and i missed it bc i was too young

this all seems like a problem that could be solved by a child not having access to a credit card

e: before anyone mistakes what im saying: i dont think these systems are good but i think we are pointing the finger at the wrong people with regards to who is responsible for their behavior. no one forces you to roll the dice or to buy/play the game with the bad systems. simply dont do it

Ah, I love stupid takes on video game addiction issues when people have spent years and years explaining how and why games companies can wring money out of people, they literally hire psychologists to figure out new and exciting ways to get children and vulnerable people to spend money.

If you can say "well just don't buy anything" then CONGRATULATIONS you are not the target.

Might have to go back to it at some point, I want very political back then, but still thought it was a bit sus that the Vox Populi had that sudden heel turn when things start going their way, which I assume is the most emblematic of the games argument for centerism.

Booker remarks that Daisy and Comstock aren't so different, and not long after this the Vox devolve into a band of murderous killers who roam the streets shooting everyone they see on sight.

Thinking that no one gets paid on reality tv because only certain cast members contestants win prizes is how a child would understand a television production. These shows usually have just as many below-the-line crew as any scripted series. Plenty of my friends who work in production have their ability to pay rent directly connected to whether certain reality shows end up getting new seasons.

But please, go on and defend the millionaire streamers who are your close parasocial friends. If they really wanted to rebroadcast content they didn’t make, they could pay for the rights to do so.

EDIT:

I think this point needs to be emphasized: This isn’t a case of a group of friends watching a movie together on discord or something. This is a performer, at their job, who is making money by showing someone else’s content.

You make an excellent argument against video game streaming too, so if your intention is to end all streaming then congratulations.

Toei don't and refuse to understand people using their content in ways other than watching it on TV/overpriced Blu Rays, they have for years tried to nail Team Four Star to the wall for daring to make content out of Dragonball.

So the issue here is this guy was doing youtube videos recapping the Pokemon Sword/Shield season of the anime, and the company who makes it (ShoPro) is directly legally bullying and fining him?

https://twitter.com/SuedeBlade/status/1486930528196456449

That is pretty hosed up, and I guess points to how lucky Totally Not Mark was that Toei was not only going directly through Youtube's internal claims systems, but then broke the rules of the claims system when they didn't get what they wanted. I wonder if stuff like this is what Toei will resort to going forward?

The only way to avoid this insanity in the future is to just show absolutely nothing of the japanese property you are talking about.

Hell, it wasn’t even interested in talking about the scope of left-wing conspiracism, which can be pretty bad in the UK!

Bungie story stuff can be cool but if you thought Destiny lore was hard to get into Halo was the prototype. Like, it is very easy to play the entirety of the Halo series without ever knowing why the aliens and humans are fighting.

With how divorced Destiny's story is from its gameplay loop I reckon a lot of players don't even know the current bad guy, The Witness, is a fusion of millions of people into one body, or that multiple characters, including a few villains, know they are in a video game and are trying to break out of it.

Or that The Vex, the weird cyclops robots ultimate goal is to re-write the laws of physics and make themselves a universal constant.
