EK Cooling allegedly has slipped itself into a hot soup of seemingly endless financial woes, where it has not paid its staff, suppliers, and contractors for many months as the company is facing liquidity problems and a surplus of inventory left unsold, stuck in the warehouse for a more extended period. Gamers Nexus investigated these claims made by former and current personnel, where he found trails of unpaid bills lasting as long as three to four months and unpaid raises that accumulated for almost a year.
EK Water Blocks has two entities—a Slovenian-based headquarters and a US-based subsidiary, EK Cooling Solutions. Steve narrated the series of events in detail, stating that the company was reportedly irresponsible and negligent regarding payment. Consequently, partners and employees are forced to share the burden of alleged mismanagement. It all begins with its extensive range of products, leading to a surplus of goods. EK has over 230 water blocks, 40 liquid cooling kits, 85 reservoirs, 40 pumps, 73 radiators, and 212 miscellaneous accessories.
Yes this is not about video games directly but indirectly this will impact the pc gaming/workstation space hard.
This company is massive one of two in the water cool space so if it goes poof then thousands out there have no spare parts or half built computers.
SO yeah i know not about a video game but think of it as amd leaving the pc space but this is ekwb that could be leaving water cooling in the pc space

Lower the prices in some third world countries and the Piracy would go down even further.
When a game cost $85 USD in a country were people only make $300 USD a week then your gonna get some piracy.
Brazil and Australia have outrageous game prices.
Game makers need to do something to balance that out for them.
Also who the HECK is gonna enforce Anti-piracy laws in countries that have ZERO relations with the United States?
Yes Piracy occurs in the United States but it's declining as the economy goes up.
Piracy was a crime till everyone took a dump on it... The LAW should be more strict on such actions...
Zero-Tolerance 10-years minimum prison sentence.
I think Steam sales prove enough that piracy isn't as bad as people make out, if someone wants to pirate a good game shame on them, because half the time i find the multiplayer keeps it going for a long time. And having an illegal copy of a game = no online multiplayer.
So they might think they are getting free games, but they also miss out on a lot as well.
Dude, over the years I have bought super Mario 3 at least 5 times on different platforms. At what point or dollar amount do I get the rights to own that material? I think piracy evens the playing field a bit. If you truly enjoy what a developer makes then feel free to buy the product.
sellers just have to compete with the pirates, valve sure as heck does.
