Have you enjoyed funding Lord GabeN's gigayacht all these years, /v/?
>>730634881nobody cares about anything anymore bro this is late stage capitalism
whats with rich peepo and yachts, i've been on a boat and it's kinda unpleasant, the air is heavy and moist and if the boat rocks you get sick
He's been providing a valuable service this whole time that has so far buckled the enshittification trend in the whole ass rest of the internet, why would I be upset he buys a boat with the cash he made from it?
>>730634881the yachts are just for flexing to other billionaires.gamings future rides on fex, proton and lepton
>>730634881It's a better use of money than AI datacenters, i'll give him that.
>>730634980A big boat is something poor people can't afford, ergo it's a status symbol. Humans will tolerate a LOT of boredom and misery for the sake of status. This is because status unlocks bonus items in Hell when you die.
>>730634881Why isn't Gay Ben giving us any free games?
>>730634980>if the boat rocks you get sicklook at you primitive, the time of you fossils is OVER
>>730634980>This nigga never had fantasies of sailin the high-seas in search of adventureWhat a fag holy fucking shit
>>730634881I've enjoyed playing video games and not giving a shit what happens to money once it's left my possession
>>730634980>if the boat rocks you get sickMan must suck being black and not having sea legs. Higher caste races don't have that problem.
>>730634980Not all, some of them are good like Tim
>>730634980>he doesn't know what yachting isthe law of the high seas is not the same as the law of a country.
>>730634881>the vessel will also support scientific researchwhat is bro doing?
>>730634950>sent from my iphone
>>730635120>Mfw even Hell has pre-order bonuses
>>730635331Yep, this is why human trafficking is done primarily on the seas This is what Gabe probably gets up to btw
>>730635514It's hell. It probably also has microtransactions
>>730634881I would never want a big house, I would never want a big fucking boat, imagine all the maintenance.>you pay people to do that for youI don't want to have to rely on people. God I love being poor without too much stuff to weigh me down.
>>730635331>>730635557Sorry EGS pedos but Sweeney is the only confirmed pedophile
>>730634881>be successful businessman with proven talents and accolades and decades of hard work>NOOOOO YOU ARENT ALLOWED TO SPEND YOUR MONEY HOWEVER YOU WANT... YOU HAVE TO BE POOR AND MISERABLE LIKE ME
>>730635797See >>730635615The poor are happy and have found nirvana, the blessed kingdom
>>730635847>The poor are happy and have found nirvana, the blessed kingdomOP and the author of the article surely haven't
>>730635847clearly they aren't happy since they keep seething about what rich people do with their money
>gamers make notch rich>immediately sells out>gamers make gabe rich>immediately sells out>gamers make nvidia rich>immediately sells outbros, i think they don't respect us even worse they see us as stupid cattle
>>730634881goyim are real cattle and pay steam tax on games even when they dont have to
>>730636037Look at /v/ and tell me gamers are worthy of respect.
>>730636037When it comes to you, they sure got the "stupid" part right.
>>730636037>gamers make gabe rich>immediately sells outhe literally hasn't sold out though?
>>730635687Cultist, no one mentioned tim
>>730636151gamers are worth of respect and lolis
>>730634881Better to fund gabe's research ships than timmy AI cheese pizza generation
>>730636264>pushes paid modding where gabe pockets 75%>sells other people's workshops items, gives them literally 1%>sells other people's games, takes 30% from indies while triple a slop only pay 20%>spends money on yachts instead of giving back to industrydoes this look like a man who sees you as a human being?
>>730634881Gaben requires more yachts.
>>730636439>pushes paid moddingwhere are these paid mods? give me a link to mods gabe is selling
>>730634881Can't believed yall nerds simped for this fat faggot
>>730634881Owning a yacht should be an automatic death sentence.
>>730636439>spends money on yachts instead of giving back to industryWhat exactly in your mind do you think this would accomplish?
>>730634881Gabe supports my Linux hobby so I support Gabe's yacht hobby.
>>730635513>botposting>current yearA bit gauche, don't you think?
>>730636614to the timdian "giving back to the industry" means "PLEASE LET EGS HAVE YOUR GAMES MAKE STEAM WORSE SO TIM CAN COMPETE"
>>730636553pulled back due to immense pushback because gamers weren't gigantic bootlickers back thenthe horse armor slippery slope is real>>730636614getting into yacht business and making more money? what does that accomplish? the fuck i know? billionaires are mentally fucked up in head
>>730636639I don't know who that is, zoomzoom
>>730636439he looks like a capitalist, what are you trying to say? Valve is still better for consumers than other big vidya companies, but we all know that that's not saying much
>do research on gaben's yacht by night>kino dinners and gaming sessions by nightimagine
>>730636439none of that is selling out though?selling out means abandoning your core fanbase and your principles to chase big corporate bag.gaben got his yacht money by staying in his niche and sticking to his principles.valve is single-handedly pushing back against ai horseshit and the assault on owning your own computer and you're acting like he sold the whole platform off to tencent. just plain ignorant, if not paid disinfo actor.>muh 30%the physical retail that valve distrupted would take anywhere from 30% to 50% of your dollar, and you still had to pay the publisher and the physical distribution chain before the dev got any money.
>>730636668>that thing bethesda did is valve's fault!!!
>>730636805>>730636770What's the point of this disingenuous cope? You know deep in your heart Gaybe Jewell sees you less than a human. I'm pretty sure he like other billionaires hates your guts and would rather you all die.
>>730636930>coping this much because valve is still objectively better than timmy tencent's pedoshop
>>730636668>getting into yacht business and making more money? what does that accomplish?It's not meant to accomplish anything faggot, he probably just bought it because he wanted one. You aren't entitled to gabe's money that he earned. Maybe you should start your own gaming enterprise from nothing like he did, since it's so easy anyone can do it.
>>730636993>muh epic vs steamThis is why everyone hates you console war niggers. Gabe and Tim are laughing at your retarded internet fights.
>>730637056>timmy gets outed as a pedophile >timdians start spamming harder keep crying faggot, steam is and will always be better than EGS
>>730635513damn ur smart
>>730637041GabeN is not entitled to his unearned billions. kys shill
I don't care what Gabe does on his mega yacht, I just thank god he doesn't post daily bullshit on twitter like all the other billionaires.
>>730635952This, rich people should have all the money, they're the only ones who deserve it.
>>730637181>unearned his service is the bestif there was a better store it would have the customers and whoever owned that would be rich
>>730637181I think the yacht was bought with his earned billions though
>>730634980it's the closest they'll get to having their own castle, moat and everything, and they decide exactly who is invited, and who leaves
>>730637202>>730637245>>730637247ah shit you guys are just trollingsorry my bad, i forgot everyone was contrarian at /v/
reminder that all successful businessmen are guaranteed to be absolute psychopaths without a shred of empathy, like I'm not just saying it, it's a proven fact
its funny how blatant EGS paid shills aredon't remind them that sweeney laid off people but still allocates money to indian shill farms and bot spam
>>730637329>calling people contrarian >while shilling for EGS
He gave his kid enough money to fund the anova immersion circulator with chefsteps so he can't be all that bad by inadvertently driving down the price of said machines
>>730637202>thinks he deserves other peoples' money for doing literally nothing at all and having no marketable skillsLet's not even get into politics, this is just your average poorfag
Anyone notice it's always the same anons who defend steam? It's all the same arguments and same shit "muh service" "muh i worship rich" "muh egs paid shills" Literally the same 5 schizos shitting up /v/I wish I didn't notice. They made steam their personality and will not stop spamming their steam threads. What's funny gaben will never notice them ever while he enjoys choking on his 5000 calorie cookies on his yacht
>>730634881I still don't understand the appeal of boats, much less mega yachts. The upkeep and storage on a smaller boat is fucking insane. I literally can not comprehend how difficult and expensive it is to maintain a mega-yacht. It just seems so wasteful. All so that you can impress millionaires who are more poor than you. It just seems so pointless.You could have tossed that 400 million away by covering a 4 year university degree for a child that each and every employee Valve has. Then you'd have millions of poor people sucking you off. Surely the cumulative ass kissing of millions outweighs the few evenings of watching lesser affluent individuals mald over your wasteful purchase.
>>730637524or how about the valve employees pay for their own shit because they get paid well
>>730637491imho itch and gog are far better platforms but calling gabe a sellout is just weird bro
The reason EGS shills are going into overdrive is because these past few days has been nothing but actual positive news for Valve while EGS keeps getting shit on or worse forgotten This here is genuinely why steam out of ALL STORES earns their 30%https://youtu.be/34JSLE3DVmg?si=3q23UCjQJ7bUU7JThttps://youtu.be/TCZ8T_KI5g8?si=QuWUquHToJwNAW5xhttps://youtu.be/osSUvcHID5s?si=yXI1cVZfKDqKbUHIhttps://youtu.be/zkDjLWsMg1A?si=UE0izlupvUTRsj6S
>>730637630Why? Because you worship his fatass? Why don't you grow out of your rich person worship phase? No anon will suddenly change their minds and start loving billionaires because you got angry at /v/ about it.
>>730635485the research is on how fat a cunt can get before his yacht sinks as a result of it
i can tell this board is full of soilennials because of the soulless brand loyalty
>>730637770you're the one throwing a hissyfit about a man buying a boat.it doesn't affect me at all.
>>730637867It doesn't affect you because you are not even a gamer. It affects me though because he and others are directly responsible for sorry state of video games. I know an anon with "Fuck you got mine" mentality will never understand.
>>730637787Why are you poor? Is it because you are brown?
>>730637867you dont get it anon! you have to hate Gabe Newell because...b-because...
>>730637867ur a SLAVE!!!
>>730634881yeshe delivered the best servicehe reaped the rewardsmeanwhile the losers at EA got bought by israelis and arabs
>>730637939what part of him buying a boat is saying "fuck you" though?how has that affected you in any way?
What's an EGS?
>>730637939>letting people sell their games has ruined the industryOk tardo
>>730634881he deserves his wealth far more than a saudi prince or a hedge fund manager.
>Rich man baduh!1
If you need anymore reason to hate sweeney know that he pays indians to spam this site to advertise his shitty storefront
>>730638125More often than not, yes.
>>730638204Is Ninja dead yet?
>>730634881>things that make you say "I'm going to the EGS store! I love EGS!"How fuckin obvious could you be, faggot? You fucking shills gonna have to try harder than that! Get fuckde
>>730636439He is Jewish after all. He made his videogame career stealing John Carmack's engine to prop himself up as VP of Microshit, using ID Engine to accelerate the GUI for Windows then took that stolen code to make "Gold Source" and start Valve. He, like all of his kind, is a parasite. He's just the nicest of the parasites.
Thank god I play too much video games to give a shit about triple captcha cancer 4chan nowadaysAlso reminder >>730637491always
Never forget that it was this one decision that completely tanked Epic Games stores reputation. 2 weeks before release he bought out exclusivity which PISSED OFF a ton of people.I still remember that people were still iffy on EGS but thought it would be good competition but this shit he pulled here with exclusivity completely flipped people and it NEVER bounced back.
>>730638342>i dont care about 4chan but here i am, acting like a faggot as i always do!
A yacht is the most expensive luxury a billionaire can pretty much buy, right? Or what else is there?
>>730638868Jets are bigger status signalers since they say that you are so important you need to go mach 1 just to go to all your meetings with other rich and powerful people. But yachts are the most ostentatious and conspicuous.
>>730634881better to fund his retarded yacht than shareholders' yachts
>>730638935Google says it's only 100 million for an upper end Jet. Even a poorfag billionaire can easily afford that.
>>730638431that was the biggest and first thing that destroyed EGS in everyone's eyes the other major thing to remember is their refusing to even have basic features like a shopping cart for YEARS
>>730634881I've enjoyed playing games on steam, yeah
>>730634881>rich guy spends moneythat's not what's bad about rich people. Sure, it's a stupid yacht but it's a hell of a lot better for the world than anything Sweeney/musk/trump/Zimbabwe(microsoftcock dude)/zucc have spent their money on
>>730638125I would be that guys friend
>>730639840What would happen if I took control and pressed the Gaben?
How many wild sex parties does Gaben hold on his megayachts?
>>730634980It's a mansion you don't have to pay property tax on and if any government tries you can just sail away. Makes complete sense to own one if you're rich.Hell I've been considering doing the poorfag version and moving into a houseboat. Would be pretty awesome way to be quasi homeless.
>>730640132That's pretty based honestly.
>>730640132you'll spend far more on maintenance and docking fees than you ever would in property tax.a yacht even more so, plus having the whole crew on retainer all year isn't going to be cheap either.there's a reason boat people always say, "never be the guy who owns the boat, be the friend of the guy who owns the boat"
>>730640008Gaben was delivering newspapers when this jew was raping kids. Gabe is rich because he is one of the first people to profit from programming video games. You're mad because you don't have money, it has nothing to do with him.
>>730640270That only applies to regular people not elites. In my case I have a remote job and 100k in anime figures I'm considering selling to buy a boat. That's chump change in the boating world but still far cheaper than buying a house. But yeah obviously if you get a mortgage the house still makes more sense but you're paying extra for the coolness factor
>>730640387>he is one of the first people to profit from programming video gamesare you retardedcarmack and romero were casually gifting ferarris to their pals ten years before steam launched
I have enjoyed having all of my video games in one convenient place.>b-b-butDon't care. Valve is not my friend. Valve is not my enemy. It's a service I like.
>>730640485Not seeing your point.
>>730640768so that's a yes then.
>>730638935>jetHow droll. I'd have my own personal zeppelin.
>>730634881Now I'll just have to wait for my invitation to the LAN
>>730637202I think you're failing to understand how meaning and words work, man.The rich don't deserve or are undeserving of the money. They have the money. Hence, "rich".Making moralist arguments about it is just riling yourself up to real outcome.But hey, maybe you'll be rich too someday, if you ever figure out how adjectives work.
i must be missing something, can someone explain why he shouldn't have nice things? wouldn't you buy nice things if you were rich?
>>730641161You can't be rich unless you steal wealth that you don't deserve from me
>>730641161gabe bad because his store is successful while shittier stores aren't
>>730641161but i'm not rich
>>730640845Nice argument retard.
>>730634881Of course, can u imagine giving money to groups of people who actively hates you and your hobby? He makes them bend over.
>>730634881>meanwhile the steamies
>>730634881Gabe could have funded lawsuits to sue Mastercard and Visa over video game censorship. Instead, he used his money to buy yachts instead of fighting censorship.
>>730634881Wh t he fuck gives a shitenough with the e-celeb threads
