GR - "Entire thing a misunderstanding on our part"
The premium Sony Inzone earbuds are designed for PC and PS5, and they're finally getting a discount after launching in late 2023.
Paul G Writes: "AFK Journey is a free open-world, role-playing gacha centered on creating your own team of powerful heroes. Here, you play as the reincarnation of the great mage Merlin, solving a mystery surrounding a malignant corruption.
On its surface, AFK Journey's gorgeous visuals, strategic gameplay and dynamic characters promise a wholly fun experience for new and old players alike. Journey even has a very easy pity system that makes getting rare heroes a breeze.
That said, AFK Journey still presents the usual flaws in big gacha entries, including a lack of accessibility features, bad voice direction and predatory microtransactions."
"The Brussels-based (Belgium) indie games developer DascuMaru (Jochen Mistiaen) today announced with great happiness and excitement that his retro-inspired and atmospheric horror game "The Tower on the Borderland", is coming to PC via Steam on May 20th, 2024." - Jonas Ek, TGG.
Good reddens. I feared the worst for a second there. Hopefully the decline of DS3 sales will educate them on how gamers feel about microtransactions.
A little to close to his face for my liking.
I really hope he has learnt from this... don't treat your customers as just a source of money to squeeze as hard as you can.
Try good service and products instead, it will get you a lot further.
This made me laugh.
"When previously we read the word “all” in the first statement, we took it to mean “all”. Today’s revisit to the topic has made us recognise the error. We should have instead ignored the word entirely."
Reading through the articles related, I'd say Jorgensen is the one to blame for the confusion, not GR, OXM or anyone else. He said, and I quote (from the original source - http://www.oxm.co.uk/50616/...
"We are building into all of our games the ability to pay for things along the way".
What other way is there to interpret this than "we are building micro-transactions into all of our games"?
This is just another case of stupid spokesperson says stupid thing, then retracts stupid thing, defending his retraction by claiming the public 'misunderstood' him.
