Apparently, in the hopes of a long dispute over his suggestion that a “real fan” will find a way to pay a $ 80 payment for Borderlands 4, if this price point is over, the gear box CEO, Randy Pachford, has tried to post a credible databy, “and the post -databy of a” post “. Thoughts have created their ideas, and their thoughts.
Irony is that it all started with Another, comparatively lengthy tweet About how Twitter conversations can be out of control of a platform that actively encourages grief. “I mean, thank you for playing your game and thank you for all, but, Boy Hoodie, some of you really need to find some point and cool down F,” said Pitch Ford.
It naturally reduced the water for the fans. One user replied: “I also saw something crazy. A CEO of gearbox software felt bad to the players and separated them for not paying $ 80 for their game. This platform is wild.”
It was in the same place, I can only assume that Pachford broke his Naxalites and wrote, because Answer, some 557 words According to my word document, all this raid is significantly deeper than his previous apology.
I’m not going to post the whole thing here, but some important points are in the fore. Pitchford begins with a $ 80 comments by defending his intention.
“I’m sorry there was a misunderstanding,” he says. “Absolutely sincere truth is that I don’t want anyone to pay more than that or be comfortable and I always work with that intention and hope that a user always feels that they get a better end to the deal, even if they pay.”
Pitchford claims that “what I was trying to do” in the debate in its prices was explained “It was not my call” how much borderlands cost 4, but “if the price increases by $ 10” then “then it will be fine (and) Border Lands 4 will be fine because it is a great game and a lot of good games.”
“Real fans” comment was “trying to do short -handed”, which was insisted by Pitch Ford, and “it got stuck as if I was making a big statement.” Pitchford says it was just a remarkable comment, but he saw how some people interpreted it, which he “viewed with the audience with appreciation”, which he agrees, “it is a very shameful look, but it does not feel like my intention and I do not feel about it.”
Whatever the Pitchford’s alleged intent, show the record that this is not an unfair interpretation. The players were not just about reacting to their comments. Baldor’s Gate 3 Dev Michael Daus called the “true fan” comment “grass” because it shows that buying the game is more important than “making it day by day”.
Posting the posting pedal on the floor and moving on the topic of usually $ 80 sports, Pitch Ford says, “I don’t want the prices to go up because I want everyone to have access to their creation. I get that business is one thing.
Let’s keep the $ 80 game to question the inevitableness. Nintendo, who is known for holding high -cost points with white grip, started all with the argument that Mario Cart justifies the World $ 80 because it is just dang -rich, and the Xbox has continued it. There is some logic of the claim that increasing production costs will boost rising game prices, but the argument wrongly assumes that this production cost is inevitable, this game will have to be big and beautiful and expensive, and most players will accept the price when accepting this price. A lot of other sports There are no $ 80 magical.
Such as Claire Obusker: The Publisher of Expedition 33 said, GTA 6 and Rock Star AAA’s budget and team -shaped work, but “there are many irresponsible ways in the industry” that others cannot do. Or, per former PlayStation Boss Shohi Yoshida, leads to a way forward with “tough teams” contesting sports.
Anyway, when you already have 400 words in your tweet, I guess you can even dig public relations throughout the industry and get every last post out of your system. “I advise you to consider the people you enjoy, the real people who are sincerely trying to make cool goods,” says Pitch Ford, “and” I have chosen to be accessible here “,” says Pitch Ford.
An excellent purpose, maybe, but I’m sure that the solution to all this traumatic conflict is to post less.
