Also one of the YPTB mods is in a group with like 3 others who all:

Flood user modlogs with unfounded accusations of vote manipulation and trolling.

Think that people browsing All should know the size and history of every community before downvoting a single post. Also don't understand what lurkers are and assume intent.

Take downvoting very personally.

Early release was supposed to be in 2024. We have halfway through 2025.

Lead devs have said the game is ready for early release, so they are likely taking a break from a game they feel is being delayed by the publisher. The publisher is whining about expectations, not obligations or anything along those lines.

I'm with the devs on this one, project burnout is real.

A publisher trashing devs of a beloved game with personal attacks certainly was a bold move.

However, instead of participating in the game development, he chose to focus on a personal film project.

We are deeply disappointed by the former leadership’s conduct, and above all, we feel a profound sense of betrayal by their failure to honor the trust placed in them by our fans.

So professional!

They did not have any reason to personally attack the leads except out of spite, and odds are high that doing so will only anger the player base towards the publisher.

Trashing the devs was a terrible idea, and what they wrote was clearly petty and spiteful.

Yes. If you don't have adequate containment then strawberries can absolutely be a weed.

A delicious weed, but still a weed.

If you are happy with the plants being where they are then they aren't weeds. The main problem is companies that sell plant killing chemicals and services treat the word 'weed' as if it had a universal meaning.

But the cultists are the bad guys!

They seem so positive and bubbly from the outside!

Definitely a cult.

However, instead of participating in the game development, he chose to focus on a personal film project.

My assumption is that Krafton expected the leads to put in 12 hour days 7 days a week to meet ridiculous expectations and the leads took some vacation time or something along those lines. That would match up with common publisher behavior, especially the ones that trash people publicly.

The polite phrasing is pills of color

Oh boy, they are going to get so many bad Glassdoor reviews.

Or more likely they weren't actually being lazy, they knew they needed to leave room for swelling and healing. The surgeons that did tight stitches thought theirs was better because it looked better immediately after the surgery.

Surgeons are actually pretty well known for being arrogant, and claiming anyone who doesn't do their neat and tight stitching is lazy is completely on brand for people like that.

Its gonna cost you...

Brazil shuts BYD factory site over 'slavery' conditions

From 2016 and still true today:

Chinese Government Subsidies Play Major Part In Electric Car Maker BYD's Rise

Yeah, subsidies and other benefits from governments exist but China is going all in.

Perfection!

Expense is not the only way to make something hard to get, and gun laws have a long history of being made in a way that intentionally or unintentionally makes it difficult for minorities.

Many of the historical laws they found were virulently racist, restricting access to weaponry for enslaved people, Indigenous Americans and other racial minorities.

If people don't want to be 'insulted' by low offer then they shouldn't present it in a format that allows for offers that are 'too low'. It would take less time to reject the bid they allowed to happen than to write a response.

I have personally purchased at least one thing for 10% of the asking price (around $500) because I was the only one who wanted it and they wanted to get rid of it. That was what it was worth to me, I wasn't trying to haggle or anything, just made an offhand offer when walking by.

Your point is a valid one! Just not in the context of discoverability.
