Time Extension has decided to stop covering products made by ModRetro because they announced a version of one of their products that's branded after Anduril Industries, a military defense company that shares ownership with them.Personally, I find this pretty retarded. Sure, they have the right to choose what they want to cover, but I disagree with their reasoning. They're putting their personal opinion of the company ahead of reporting on something relevant to the topic they're meant to be covering (plus apologizing like a bitch because they "didn't draw the line sooner"). They disabled comments on the article, of course.http://archive.today/AGiq9
>Anduril Industries, a military defense company that shares ownership with them.The CEO is this guy?
>>728989313palmer luckey says jews deserve israel but whites dont deserve america so anything that hurts his business interests is good
>>728989427This story is the first I've heard of the guy, but that's pretty funny.>>728989497That's pretty fucked, but I don't think news coverage should be weaponized like that (not that I'm naiive enough to believe that isn't a common occurrence anyway)
>>728989427The guy who got kicked out of Oculus Rift now is shilling his drone company to the military.Why do all these companies have to be so unlikeable? Just look at Palantir.
>>728989756Guys who made something successful once and got a big hit of dopamine from the money that raked in looking to repeat that feeling at the cost of their humanity, I guess
>>728989313gamers are the most fragile souls
>>728989313>Time Extensionfucking who?>Mod RetroWHO?
>>728989313>company decides to act like retards>Reportan site decides "we aint gonna give you the time of day">anon responds with "MUH CENSORSHIP"No one is under any obligation to bow to (you)r whims, least of all us. Get the fuck out of here.
I'm so sick of vidya game journo drama. Why can't these people just not be fags?
>>728989313So? What do you want from me? Validation for your dumbass opinion? Take it somewhere else.
>>728989313Video game journalists are free to cover whatever the fuck they want.In turn, you're also free to stop giving them clicks, and give them to a news outlet that covers the news you wanna see.It's that shrimple.>>728989497SPBP.
>>728990076>company decides to act like retards>site decides the only logical reaction is to also act like retards, then disable comments so people can't tell them how retarded they are>>728990186A discussion regarding the thread's topic, ideally, but I realize that's asking a lot given the absolute state of modern /v/.
Oh no! Anyway...
>>728990009I think you mean jews
>>728990324Okay, since the point obviously went over your head, lets distill this further.>objectively bad thing gets cut off from news>objectively bad thing whines about itWhat is the problem here?
>>728990324>A discussion regarding the thread's topicYou just want to be told you're cool for enabling a shabbos goy who married a kike.
>>728989313Coverage is unpaid advertising, nothing obliges you to provide someone else with unpaid advertising.
>>728989313This is just from the NintendoLife people and they'll do anything Twitter tells them to. If Miyamoto came out tomorrow and said he loved Trump and thinks there's only 2 genders, they'd write a huge piece shittalking him
No problems from me. In fact, I'm happier that the press place is open about it's move and why. I would presume Time Extension is in bed with the CCP, as the chinese handlhelds they cover deeply are balls deep with the Chinese millitary. And I don't mean just having a party representative. I mean their supply chain is making drones for russia in the ukrane war right now.Pic related. Sega's AM2 was made with Lockheed Martin, and they also worked on Afterburner.>>728989427FIRST POST. AND THE THREAD IS ALREADY HEROIC POST.
>>728990709Palmer has been MAGA for a few years, and they only stopped because he flexed his new portable console is made with the components also used to make military drones.
>>728990186Kill yourself.
>>728991046Uh oh meltie!
>>728990324>company decides to act like retards>site decides the only logical reaction is to also act like retards, then disable comments so people can't tell them how retarded they are>>728990440 HereGive me an answer, coward.
what kind of faggot retard uses video game news websites
>>728990532the CCP isn't getting cut off, and their handhelds, which also are doing the same shit the american company is, except even more are still getting coverage. >>728991293People who need more than one chinese handheld, I guess.
That new design goes hard. Fuck Jews. Fuck moralfaggy bluesky people. I hope everyone involved dies.
>>728990440gamers are the most fragile jewsgamers are the most jewish soulsgamers are the jew fragile souls
>>728990709 You're not wrong, but it’s honestly hilarious how quickly they’ll pretend decades of corporate worship never happened the moment someone stops playing nice with their echo chamber. Imagine rewriting your whole brand ethos over a tweet disagreement. Peak journo brain.
>>728989313anal log owners are just mad they cant scalp their stupid fake n64 as easy because modretro is making one and theirs comes in the stupid 90s clear plastic instead of it being the "special scalper edition"
>>728989313based, time extension remains the best vidya news site
>>728991256You're replying to the wrong person, you dumb nigger.
>>728989756>Why do all these companies have to be so unlikeable? Just look at Palantir.pretty cool that all these companies have dropped any pretense of doing good by society or even making products people will likealex karp just going like "yeah we're building a dystopian surveillance state lol" on the regular
>>728989313If there's no monopoly on covering such news then just browse their competitor.
>>728989313Based on this thread it's because it has connections to a military company?I mean suppose you recommend their products, your readers buy it, and they get pagered by Israel.Makes sense.
>>728989313The Chromatic is so fucking ugly.Remove the logo (or move it somewhere else and make it smaller), remove that graphic to the right of it and remove the stripes. Instantly fucking better.
>>728993702soulless minimalistmove a noose around your neck and remove your life
>>728989313>company acts like retards to get free outrage coverage>news site decides to not play alongSounds reasonable to me.
Analog Pocket can't stop winning bros!
Why doesn't the Tolkien estate sue all these military contract companies using Legendarium words as their name? Is it because there's no legal basis for a copyright suit, or is it because whoever currently controls the estate doesn't give a shit about shepherding the brand the way Christopher did?
>>728989427I wonder if they refuse to play Sega Model 3 games because their hardware was produced by Lockheed Martin
>>728995961Who the fuck is playing Sega Model 3 lmao the extent you fags go to have an example is ridiculous.
>>728996017Go play Scud Race right now, nigger.
>>728996206And then write article about it for some fucking reason?
>>728996239And then play Daytona USA 2, it's fun.
>>728989313
>>728989946Once you learn to bullshit investors, ti guess that skill sticks with you
>>728990062
Chromatic is the best gbc you can get. The screen is beautiful
>>728995816>even considering giving the benefit of the doubt to the morons who greenlist LAWD DEM RANGZ
>>728989313I want to know if the product is good. The job of a reviewer is to inform me of the product's capabilities, not moralfag about the company.Furthermore, these virtue signalling fucks support le terrible labour practices and le evil industries with the shit they purchase everyday anyway. Bet they all have clothes made by bangladeshi children and buy chocolate and coffee farmed by african children
>>728989313>we don't like the military–industrial complex>and yet you support it by participating in society, interesting!>ok, then we'll reduce our support by ending coverage of this thing connected to the industry>NOOOO YOU CAN'T DO THAT YOU HAVE TO GIVE IT COVERAGE!!!!!!
Hope they don't review COD or other games that partner with the military then. Wouldn't want to be hypocrites.
>>728991743Fucking sluts like to tease"Oooh goyim don't shove me in the oven~~~"
>>728996017I still see Star Wars Trilogy Arcade cabinets
>>728989313Every human must observe morals. Otherwise you're lower than a cockroach.
>>728989313>Anduril>PalantirWhat's the link between the Tolkien fandom and sociopathic greedy manchildren?
>>728989313>reporting on something relevant to the topic they're meant to be coveringevery publication makes editorial decisions. only in the internet age have publications tried to overextend to cover everything (every press release they get) in order to maybe hopefully get a few more clicks. it is perfectly fine for a cultural publication to not cover anything, especially a product, because it isn't their cup of tea.
>>728989756>Why do all these companies have to be so unlikeable? Just look at Palantir.So you would like people that want to enslave you if they pandered to you like you're some retarded redditor?Fucking hell, with retarded golems like you around we're so doomed.
>>728989313I just saw SBCGaming crying and virtue signaling about thishonestly I can barely even careall handheld retro companies are backed by china, which is a horrifying country with a lot of human rights violations.
>>729000259didn't they also cry about Usagi?
>>728989313So...that's the /k/ handheld ?
>>728998390The Palantir guy internalized the idea that he's a villain because he was treated as a weiro in school because of his strange political views.
>>728991504They did a big article that used Latinx throughout. Any Latino people that told them it's a white people word got blocked and had comments removed. Twitter praised them.
>>728989756Because you faggots act like hipsters now.
