Can tell you’ve been on the Internet too long! Nice rebuttal to a simple explanation of making money go further.
- Comment on Capcom President Thinks Game Prices Are 'Too Low' - IGN 8 months ago:
Why not. 3 dollars for a couple of hours of entertainment is poor cost efficiency compared with what I’ve got out of some games. Don’t get me wrong, capcom don’t need to raise prices as I’m pretty sure they make plenty of money already, but cinema is not cost effective entertainment compared with a video game.

- Comment on Google Flat-Out Refuses to Bargain With Workers, Prompting YouTube Music Strike 9 months ago:
I can’t believe I’m saying it but but I’m with Google here. They are sub-cons so negotiation would surely go through their employer who is cognizant. I’m a sub-contractor, I’m not gonna go to the client and ask for a raise, I’m gonna go to my employer. Maybe it’s different in different regions but if I asked the client for a raise in the uk they would probably just laugh at me.

Not equivalent unless you pay a yearly subscription for your door. Unity is a subscription and so terms can be changed. It sucks but we need to ween off the subscriptions or this will keep happening.
- Comment on Unity temporarily closes offices amid death threats following contentious pricing changes 9 months ago:
This is a reminder that paying for a subscription means t&cs can be changed. You aren’t buying the engine etc just a license to access/use it for a period of time. Stop buying subscriptions!
- Comment on Games consoles are infuriatingly exempt from California's otherwise important new right to repair bill 9 months ago:
This is silly thinking. Just because you can’t be bothered doesn’t mean someone else can’t and do a good job. You should probably YouTube component level repairs before wildly stating that 3rd party techs can’t do it. They already do it but it’s a bit of a learning process for each device due to the lack of documentation etc. Provide docs and access to parts and it’s then alot easier for the people who already can do these types of repairs and then we can all create less ewaste.

I’d say that’s its because there’s only really 1 country that’s going to buy it in large numbers but the reality is it’s the standard ea tax. Stop buying it every year or stop complaining.
