You're not racist but you do come out as bigoted.

Get a life, troll and grow up.

There was a period of time when I was watching videos on Deep Web/Dark Web. There used to have been a channel that actually show the safest places you can go on TOR.

But everytime someone mentions Red Room or mentions the exaggerated amount of illegal activity, automatically thinking it's bullshit.

People don't have all the money available to be buying lots of storage and internet plans to risk downloading. It's a process that not everyone has the time for.

I already have these in my library, it turns out. But it is nevertheless awesome for GOG to do this.

There's really not a lot there that I'm interested in. I remember their previous bundles where it was just digital garbage like skins and shit.

What video game company/developer/publisher loves shitting on it's fans? (kbin.melroy.org)
 

My pick is Psyonix, the team behind the one and only Rocket League.

And why they're my pick is because they've been prioritizing elitist gamers over generally everyone of all skill levels. This is evident when you are penalized for leaving matches in Casual Mode that escalates from 5 minutes to even hours. Basically limiting and restricting your playtime on a game people had once paid for.

And I say once paid for because this game once had a price tag along with DLCs. Sometime a few years ago, Psyonix sold itself to Epic Games and flipped Rocket League to Free-to-Play or Freemium. They delisted the game from Steam and unless you had been accumulating anything before the delisting, you are SOL.

In the Epic Games version of Rocket League, you have to build back up everything that was once readily available when it was on Steam. Having to pick up common body parts, having to pick up decals, flags, wheels .etc

All of these are just one continual dump after another from Psyonix on the fans that truly are there to have a fun time and not be a foaming drooling tryhard of an elitist player.
