The sole reason that the gaming industry was allowed to exist in the unregulated form it is now is because Game Companies used us as their personal army for decades
>Stop game censorship and help us establish the ESRB
LOL we censored a classic game retroactively cause fuck you
>Stop ID laws for videogame purchases
LOL ESRB is lobbying to have game face scanning to verify the person playing the game is old enough
>Help videogames be labeled as art for art grant money
LOL, ESRB is actively working against all preservation efforts for libraries because it could hurt re release profits cause we aren't art when we don't wanna be

Like a mercenary that has been betrayed, I think it's time for vengence
>Governments would LOVE to fine the shit out of the number 1 entertainment market in the world
>Their data collection practices target minors and are already illegal
>Many of their EULAs and EULA changes are over reaching
>Arbitration courts currently are under suit for being a monopoly due to almost 100% going to the same firm that finds 94% of the time in favor of the corporations paying them

And no, I don't care if it destroys the shitty companies that all suck now. If what we have now is the future of gaming I will gladly help burn it all down.

hey remember when everyone complained about chanology bringing internet slacktivist retards to the website?

Corporations and governments are on the same side.

>>715290465
They are on the same side when its convienent.
When the government wants money via massive fines for huge deficits, or want to scape goat blame for a school shooting, they are not on the same side.

serial sexual harrassers

>>715290103 (OP)
the truth of the matter is that the industry is collapsing and thousands of innocent, hardworking game devs are being caught in the crossfire

>>715290465
The corporation is worth more than the individual. Know your place serf.

Good. Fuck AAA devs, the old industry will fall and a new industry will take its place. The age of the indie is upon us.

So effectively what you’re trying to do is play them off of each other? But that in of itself can create a dangerous precedent where the government is able to step in on matter in regards to games. Because it never stops at the common sense stop the retards shit. They always push more and more.

anita was fuckable enough but zoe was straight hideous.

GamerGate supporters laughed when Chloe Sagal committed suicide. Fuck ‘em.

>So effectively what you’re trying to do is play them off of each other? But that in of itself can create a dangerous precedent where the government is able to step in on matter in regards to games.
That possibility always exists.

The goal would be to cleanse the gaming industry until corporations learn their place, no matter how petty of a reason.
>Nintendo decided to sue an emulator company, well time to point out their data collection of minors and how they specifically target children
>Microsoft appealed to get their FCC merger to ruin Blizzard, Bethesda and Activision.... Well time to continuously point out they violated their agreement and raised prices so it's only fair they be broken up again.
You see, they play fast and loose cause no one cares to organize and hurt them. Sure, a channel like Smash JT or Vara Dark might cover the news, but no one ever mass calls the FCC and starts massive Campaigns to get the governemnt off its ass to do its job.

How is Gawker doing? How is Kotaku doing?

The irony of this is it would have to be a political action committie that gives no fucks about actual politics. We would have to be loyal to no party, and make it so that the moment a politician backdoors some bullshit in we can get a group of politically jaded people to vote ANYONE just to scare politicians.
That is the mechanism to get gov off our ass

The mechanism to get Corpos in line is pointing out their violations and mass reporting as well as just fucking with them.

>To add to this thought
Before, gamers used to like and care about devs and companies.
Even when they sold us nickle and dime DLC
Even when they tries implementing shit DRM
Even when they clearly were in bed with the gaming media and attacked the consumers.
Even when they release broken games in need of day 1 patches.

We never saw them as the enemy, we saw them as the makers of the things we loved.

But now. Now they have gotten so retarded they legit want to revoke your licenses for "any reason" with 0 recourse and resell you the same shit again and again. They want to brick your console. They want to sell loot box gambling to children. They want to sell the mods someone else made. They want to close your accounts if you don't log on often enough and take your games away.

They don't respect you anymore.
They want to use government and lawfare to make them your bitch while mocking you for doing the same for reasonable demands of "ownership"
They pay presstitutes to smear you while shilling you another product.

Fuck this industry.
Fuck the devs
Fuck the publishers
Fuck them asking us to stand up for them when they get blamed for school shootings
Fuck their EULAs
Fuck their semantic games over ownership.
