Yeah, but your first mistake was buying apex coins.

Counterpoint - Devs need to eat. Especially devs that are thoughtful enough to enable their anti-cheat to work on Linux. So yeah, they had my attention, my support, and my money. In return I got to play a fun game and rock some cool skins and accessories - it certainly seemed like a win-win. Now they've retroactively backed out of their support, and I'd like to back out mine as well.

You know what? Developers that work at studios that are baby punching evil don't need to eat. I'm not feeding any of them.

Shit take. Not everyone can be Eric Barone or Daisuke Amaya.

Go work at Coffee Stain or their ilk. They're a games studio employing multiple developers working on a few games at a time, and they're not baby punching evil.

Embracer Group is definitely widely known for their generous treatment of staff.
