It was sincere and touching, and that’s all it should’ve been, but the decision to charge for content honoring the late Mike Forgey altered the conversation.

Alright then, let’s get into this mess.

  1. Remember when gear box put a fan into borderlands 2? And he gifted you random games. Remember when blizzard put text over one of the suits in lijiang tower to honor someone who died doing something right days before over watch came out? Remember when Nintendo put a thing for iwata at the end of Starfox zero? I remember. What ever you think of those games. Atleast they did it in good way. Plus there is that character that looks like iwata in breath of the wild. But nvm that.

  2. why you giving this guys family money? he was rich, his family is rich. they had everything set and ready for his death, his family was taken care of before it. why you giving them fucking money. hey my dad died of a heart attack and were poor, give me money. my grandma died from kidney failure and were poor, give me money. my uncle died from black lung and were poor, give me money. im sorry this dude died, but why the fuck are you giving his family money, they are RICH. they don’t need your fucking money. what the fuck is wrong with you people, take from the poor and give to the rich. and half of you claim to be democrat liberals……giving your money to rich people who don’t fucking need it.

  3. In the case of Shadow of War. If the team wanted to honor the guy, it should have been done on their own time. And should have been a gift to the community. Maybe a short description with background when you when you download it. Or they could have secretly put it in. It wouldn’t have been the first time devs put one over on the publisher

  4. Shadow of war was a game I was probably gunna buy but after loot boxes and pizza bites and this new problem makes me want to return Shadow Of Mordor… no joke

  5. My only sensible opinion on this matter: a boneheaded move in incredible bad taste, of which a thousand other moves could have been made that would have made WB come out on top.

  6. btw… many … MANY people still dont know that their money will not go to the family but into WBs greedy pockets…. and also defend them like little fanboys

  7. I really hope there is a massive backlash on this. You’d have to be a massive scumbag to even consider putting something like this into your game.

  8. #FuckWB! This really is low and disgusting, but im sure those fuckheads are convinced that they’re “noble” . Again, FUCK ‘EM!

  9. I’ve never let the ‘story behind the production of a game’ prevent me from buying a game that i think i will like… untill now.
    Grats to WB for crossing that line.

  10. well jimmy boy i may not say you handled it with “tact” but ill concede that you handled it with a style only you can :3 rock on man.

  11. Decided to drop this game completely. It went from hooray to meh to wtf. #fuckWBI

  12. Yeah, you know what would have been fun, if they roped off the loving tributes to iwata in breath of the wild behind a paywall.

  13. why are you using pics of Russian small value coins?

  14. I’ll wait for game of the year edition

  15. That moment when CD Project Red had more respect for a cow that kept getting farmed with free dlc, than Warner Brothers had for the death of one of their best devs by faking charity for half it’s customers and charging for a tribute character.

  16. You should do a Jimquisition on Fortnite.
    F2P game in paid early access built entirely around those gambling chests you love so much

  17. bad pr seems to be a designed part of the advertising tsunami method …. is this game even really being made as a real game for gamers to play …..or is it just a sale pitch for a future generations revenue collection sales systems …. all i know is …i will buy the game

  18. I have a feeling that this is just a giant f*ckup from the legal dept at WB not realizing that in making it legally squeaky clean they accidentally made it look (and function) like a sick cash-in. Hopefully the backlash will make them look into fixing it, and not just make them have a knee-jerk reaction against “entitled gamers”.

    Unrelated topic: That mask at the end, is it supposed to be a crow skull? Cause it looks amazing.

  19. Can I live in the same world as everyone else. Where medical bills and having to pay to bury someone don’t exist. I’m pretty sure people have life insurance because burying someone, no matter what fashion they die in, costs money and the whole point of it is they don’t have to go bankrupt from the costs. The world is just getting worse every year where people don’t have all the facts, but they’ll just make up their own conclusion and call it a day, a nice pat on the back for a job well done.
