Today we learned that: -People can get really up in arms whenever their choice doesn't win out. -Facebook moms have no idea how AI chatbots work, and would rather take the easy way out just to scaremonger to their kids. -Nintendo has just as big of a stick up their ass about copyright as Disney.(Seriously, is their legal department ran by the Blue Haired Lawyer from the Simpsons?) -And Epic Games measures to protect children from innaproriate content only ended up angering eveyone.

[@duscarasheddinn8033]

I'm pretty sure that Nintendo and Disney would both kill people IRL to enforce their copyrights. Given their wealth and influence, how hard could it be for them to also legally bribe (which is, to say, lobby) lawmakers to make a law so that, when they murdered someone for copyright infringement, they'd get all of the victim's property? Given that both Disney and Nintendo also ignore the bootlegs that are the ones actually defacing their IPs, I feel that calling that stupid isn't insulting enough and/or doesn't really capture it and using the R-word against them would be more justified.

@@endoskel9262 as being a third party company that should follow their own path rather than listening to the wrong sonic fans that can easily destroy the Sonic IP if they take that path, especially with what happened with sonic omens. If there's a reason why both Nintendo and Sega don't listen to their fans, that much is because of the terrible actions they've been doing, especially with the Super Smash Bros community that have been exposed for having p3dos and predators behind the scenes, what company would ever want to support a community that does that?

It's gamemill The same dev that made big rigs over the road and countless bland big license games that idk how they're still allowed to making it despite barely anyone even play or know about their existance

[@PlayerZeroStart]

I feel like some braindead higherups at these companies look back at the NES era when games regularly came out from like 6 month development cycles and expect modern companies to be able to do the same, completely forgetting that the NES only had 54 colors available and couldn't even use all of them at once, so maybe there's a reason games didn't take so long to make back then.

From what i understand about the voice chat thing for fortnite is that it will only record the last 5 minutes of voice chat and only on your system and not on the server, and you have to send it to report players or else it just gets deleted after the 5 minutes. Also if you do send it, they will evaluate it for 14 days to see if the report is fair and then they'll delete it or keep it incase of legal issues.

the funnier part 2 to the mob vote controversy is that a lot of people found decent evidence that the mod vote was rigged by people who were abusing the API capabilities when you voted in the minecraft world/on the launcher. So in other words, there's a chance the armadillo didn't even win fairly.

I find it extremely dumb that Fortnite is blocking skins if they have a gun on them when Fortnite itself is mainly a shooter game. They're also apparently concerned with scary items in the game but don't mind showing zombies, people literally melting, giants eating worlds, and countless other examples in the events everyone seems to enjoy.

[@pescado867]

The fortnite age thing is dumb. In order to be marked as E or 10+ u just gotta add a gun. If the game has guns it has teen. All the creator has to do is add a target practice room with some bots and a few guns. Maybe make a zone where they can fight. Simple and ez and that will mark you as teen. Then anyone can wear whatever skin. Super ez to avoid and not very useful

[@maxb148]

For a slightly smaller controversy, in sim racing there is this company called Motorsport Games which bought the rights multiple racing series including Nascar, IndyCar, Formula E, British Touring Cars and the World Endurance Championships. Over the past year they have lost 3 of the licences, lost millions, sacked basically all their staff, had source code threatened to be released if wages werent paid, and are one of the most hated companies in sim racing currently. They have released 3 games (with another being released in early 2024 which is just a reskin of a game as it is the exact same physics engine), with them being not too well received. One of the biggest sim racing games (Iracing) has bought back the Nascar licence which they had before and are going to be releasing a console game. And then this doesnt even mention the shit shows that were the 4 Le Mans Virtuals in 2020-23 where they couldnt keep the servers up for 24 hours and had a DDOS attack part way through after someone leaked the IP address (I am not sure if it was an employee or someone participating though)

[@terancetan5503]

First, there was the community that had enough of a system that literally started creating WW2 style propaganda posters over it. Second, there was the spectacular idiocy of a Facebook Mom that sparked a million and one idiots getting an app altered because they were stupid enough not to understand how technology worked. Third, there was a company who was so greedy that it made Activision and EA look tame by comparison. At this point, I've lost faith in half of humanity and anyone over the age of 30.

Issue with mod vote is that they basically finish all 3 mobs every time since they show them working you could add all 3, if it was done like it was ment to be then the concepts have to be shown and those voted but they are always created all 3. thats the biggest Controversy.
