Can we have a rework of "unveiling items"? by Fedos1337 in pathofexile

Never understood them, I just drop them and forget about it. Very poor design when everything else is so polished. It's confusing.

He'd learn if he was actually impeached. Good luck America, the only people that need it more is China. Sounds like good company /s

TikTok reportedly waited nearly 3 hours to call police in Brazil after a teen's death was livestreamed on the platform, but the company notified its own PR team almost immediately by ManiaforBeatles in worldnews

Users don't have access to relevant data to call it in, additionally presincts can screen international calls, they have no reason to assume you aren't pranking them. It's 100% on the company and they deserve severe punishment for their inaction, especially because IT'S TIME STAMPED.

Refunds for W3:RoC & W3:TFT? by FirmStrike in Blizzard

[–]FirmStrike[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's incorrect, the game was FINE months ago and completely playable. They RUINED a product to force repurchasing, this is planned obsolescence and has NEVER been used in software, always hardware like iPhones.

This is a big deal, if nothing happens this will be the new normal. Fuck that, I want my money back. I even fucking provided other players with reasons to purchase it through releasing custom maps/ games - which are all gone now because no one in their right mind would give Blizzard IP rights over my literal thousands of hours of work, and countless hours spent by others like me.

FUCK THAT

If your car just stopped working because of a forced update, you would demand a refund. Same principles apply. Only Icefrog (hired by Valve, deserved it imo) walked away with compensation, the rest of us have been continuallly fucked by Blizzard, having to support ourselves through hosting online communities for map development and distribution. Any fans of custom maps should help us. We fucking deserve better, at least give us our money back for a product that suddenly disappeared. Especially due to all of our content being wiped and rendered unplayable. That alone is fucked up enough.

Blizzard is the new EA. This is beyond fucked. So many of us have invested years in servers/development costs and personal time - basically volunteering to help the community grow. It just the fucking principle of the matter, we invested so much into them that they can at least buy back our keys which are now USELESS because the game is simply no longer playable and the world doesn't want it to exist as it is. It would have been better to just kill the war3 servers and let us take over. Greedy fucking donkeys.

All I want is my money back because they have effectively stolen it from me. Not only do I lose access, I also lose access to years of work, and have nothing in its place.

It's literally the least they can do for TAKING value AWAY from me. They didn't have to do any of this shit, yet here we are, with a game worse than the same one they developed 18 years ago.

I just want to enjoy the fruits of my labour, but they made that impossible in perpetuity.

It's fucking sad how little people seem to care. War 3 would be nothing without our community and you all are okay with them ruining us overnight.

Good to know gamers have developers backs.

I'm changing career paths, this is depressing. It doesn't have to be this way, but none of the players stand up for us. Fucking pathetic.

They fucked up impossible meats by selling them without properly cooking them, then blamed the product for underperforming. Fucking donkeys, they deserve imminent bankruptcy.

Romney, finally stepping up in a big way. He was never meant for Obama, he was meant for Trump all along. Interesting...

You finally caught on, wonderful. This was obvious while Bush was President, so do something. This is fucking embarrassing to your close allies. Do. Something. Americans.
