its just a rootkit mmmkay

we here at gearbox hate our customers and we never want them to feel like buying one of our products is safe. we hope other publishers can join us in slow boiling a dystopian future upon the peasants of the world.

Fuck off Randy

>We're not spying on you
>But we won't remove this from the data collection policy
>Also we're doing a totally innocuous charity event specifically centered around this game
>Here's a massive discount to INSTALL THIS GAME NOW.
>IT'S FREE, INSTALL IT AND RUN IT NOW NOW NOW NOW NOOOOOOW!
Nope

My question is why are people seething over Borderlands but fine with GTAV? Both games use the same EULA...

>>712694006
This

>>712694080
gta v came out with it.
it wasnt added to a previously concluded deal.

>>712694080
no one's made a ragebait youtube video about GTAV's yet

>>712692972 (OP)
Its crazy to think Gearbox actually used to make good games before Borderlands destroyed the company

>>712694006
If it's free, then they wouldn't mind me using a pirated version, right? Right?

I hope they sue the fag who made the fearmongering video
Fuck, people are retarded, man

>>712692972 (OP)
>Guys, we don't use spyware

>>712693762
This isn't a gearbox problem this is a problem with western writing in general

>>712694326
They literally changed the EULA around the same time...

https://youtu.be/fM4-9oH_39E
anyway this video from a big borderlands content creator is all you need to watch

>>712692972 (OP)
>now

>with most mods
What business is it t of there's what mods install?

>>712693573
randy pitchford?
MORE LIKE RANDY BITCHFORD!!!

>>712696641
Randy “Show me your magic trick” Pissford

>>712696641
>>712698826
Randy would rape both of your sorry asses

>>712694620
this shit absolutely was unique to borderlands in 2009 and really still in 2012 when they octupled down on it

>>712694080
i don't give a fuck about gtav whereas randy has now effectively stolen my video game from me
i'd have to go pirate the game instead of installing it via steam if i want to replay it now

>>712694463
>Its crazy to think Gearbox actually used to make good games before Borderlands destroyed the company
fucking surreal. brothers in arms was great.

>>712692972 (OP)
>MOST mods
Gearbox thinks it gets a say in which mods I use?

>>712698879
What is he, a fag?

>>712699168
they were okay. Played them for the 1st time recently and the rng hit detection was massive turbo-aids. Squad commanding was nice but tank missions were cancer.

>>712699168
In terms of gameplay, Memelands 3 was a very good game. They just had to include some of the absolute worst writing in video games and keep hammering you with it nonstop from start to fucking finish. If you removed every single line of dialogue from Memelands 3 you would get a much better game.

>>712699469
>rng hit detection
it's called aiming down sights, anon

>>712699310
they don't give a fuck
that's just for their online only games

>>712699310
If he said all mods someone would post WOW RANDY PITCHFORD APPROVES MY NUDE TINY TINA PISS PLAY MOD, which he frankly would behind closed doors but is a bad look publicly.

>>712699607
I'm not agreeing to a EULA that theoretically doesn't apply.

>>712699661
As much as I like giving Randy shit, nobody would genuinely fault Gearbox for saying "all mods" and leaving it at that. That would be a meaningless /v/ shitpost, not an honest breakdown of a press release.

>>712698879
Randy “BADASS who wants to grab ass” Pitcherford

>>712699678
Nigga, you probably already did lmao
Are you using a fucking microsoft or google account? The BL3 eula is standard for pretty much every single game ever made.
You retards are so fucking dumb

how do I remove a rootkit?

Unless that's in the EULA, doesn't mean shit
>Not that EULAs mean shit anyways

>>712699880
>Just click OK on this one too :)

>>712699526
Only the scoped rifle had normal working iron sights. Every other gun only had the chance to hit an enemy increase during ADS and whether he was in cover or not and his distance from you.
Hell's highway improved that a lot but shit the bed in otherways, primarily story and pacing.

>>712699942
You go to a dentist.

Ok, now let's look at the actual reponse.
>https://steamcommunity.com/app/49520/discussions/0/598528766295202095/
>does not use "spyware", but pointedly excuses various forms of data collection and explicitly rules nothing out rather than explicitly denying what people were concerned about
>does not permit "abusive" mods, which is more or less fair as they define it, but again goes on to rule nothing out - "generally" is used a a weasel word to avoid saying they don't and won't do it. In reality, because they refuse to disavow it, they are explicitly retaining the rights to ban any and all fucking mods they want to regardless of kind
tl;dr gearbox are fucking snakes and Randy is a lying ass toadie.

Are we hyped for BL4?

>>712700365
you're a retard

>>712700368
I sincerely doubt I'll ever buy another gearbox game. But not because of this. Because of the cringey humor mostly.

>>712692972 (OP)
NEVA FORGET WHAT RANDY SAID
>>>/wsg/5899589

>>712698879
i bet he would. he's greasy enough to do something like that.
he wouldn't even need lube.

>>712700618
what's in the usb randy
