    Piracy is a way. Thanks for the tip.

      Real fan?

      Bitch please. We've put up with your crap for so long and we still play it....

      Get out of here with that horse shit. Get fucked. Fuck you, and the horse you rode in on. At best, I'll wait for a sale, at worst, I'm never playing your goddamned franchise again because you've run it into the ground with enshittification.

        I'm not gonna sit and tell a man he can't have a kink preference in his own home on his own time.

        But Jesus fuck on the company thumb drive? Bro is a ceo and cant afford a "personal folder" usb. Here $12 for a 128Gb one on Amazon is not uncommon And then to be so distracted he forgot it.

        You've missed the part where that was actually something he said. Who cares about what the idiot's exact kink, he had to save his honour telling people it wasn't "really" porn.

          Yeah, Randy, I find a way to make it happen, it's called Xbox sale. That’s how I bought Borderlands 3. Which I haven't played yet. And don't get me wrong, Randy, Borderlands 2 is one of the most fun games I've played, I'm definitely a real fan! I'm definitely a video game enthusiast, I have a ginormous backlog on both Xbox and Steam.

            Randy pitchford?

            THAT Randy Pitchford?
            The Randy Pitchford that, because he loves magic tricks, downloaded himself some squirt porn (sfw youtube link to moistcritical) on the same thumb drive as company secrets, and then left it at a Medieval Times?
            The same Randy that grabbed the Claptrap VA by the junk because he was tired of voicing Claptrap for free and had the audacity to ask to be paid so Pitchford tried to intimidate him? The same Randy Pitchford that somehow "lost" millions dollars of Segas money causing Colonial marines to bomb so that they could fund Borderlands 2 and Duke Nukem Forever He's also not above putting journalists who bad mouth him in his games as petty revenge.

            Fuck that guy. Fuck anything he says.

            Holy shit, I knew about the "magic trick" girl and thought he was a quirky funny man, but assaulting an artist to force them to work for free? What a fucking asshole

                  I can barely justify 50€ for a massive game like Baldur's Gate 3. I'd never pay that much for any other game that is not on this scale. But 80 bucks? The fuck are they thinking?

                  They don't have any dlc lined up yet so not being to sell you empty promises on top of a normal game price is really tugging at Randy's purse strings.

                    The trailer for the new borderlands looked like the most soulless, boring cash grab. Anyone put much time into it yet?

                      Since I didn’t enjoy the handsome collection I wouldn’t buy it at any price, but even for games I do enjoy I wait until they are on sale preferably with the DLCs included

                        Dead Island 2 is free on Epic currently, and probably more fun than Borderlands 4; BL 3 wasn't written well, and i assume the same for BL 4. A shame, BL2 is one of my most played FPS

                                      I didn’t pay anywhere near $80 for Borderlands 1-3+ all the DLC…. So um. No. I’m in no hurry.

                                      This isn’t all the games but it goes on for like another 2 screens worth for all the DLC…

                                        Im always thrown off as a Canadian when I see these headlines because we’ve been paying $80 for games for decades.

                                        Video games haven’t risen in cost with inflation and they’re much better and bigger now so I’m not super upset, but they are now at the point where I won’t buy a game at release or full price. I think the new price here is $93 cause that’s what the new Indiana jones is going for

                                        What I hate most is that the game actually costs $150 and they split it and give you a stripped version for $80. I think gta 4 was the last game i truly felt made sense, game releases, we buy it, story dlc comes out later we get it, transaction over. No online bullshit that tries to keep you paying money into the game without end. Not a game split into little chunks and sold as tiers at release

                                          Weinstein? Diddy? Epstein?

                                          I think the more apt description would be that when you’re got something that makes other people money, then you will be protected. When that ends you’re fair game.

                                          I also agree that the more money you have the better defence you can get, but I don’t believe laws only apply to the poor. That’s hyperbole.

                                          So the logic is...

                                          The laws only apply to the poor except for exceptions where rich are on their way to poor and can be used as examples of the exception .
