Randy's only bitter that Gabe exposed his lying ass.

That's fresh coming from Randy

Who cares what he says, he's literally the most unreliable guy in the entire industry

Gearbox is a dying company this year.

why would I care what a pedophile thinks?

I'd soon trust Todd Howard then Randy Pitchford.

I wouldn't trust Randy's prediction skills.

Randy Pitchford is a gigantic fucking faggot and the day of his death will be a great day for humanity.
He is absolutely worthless scum that does not even slightly deserve to run a company, let alone be paid attention to.
Gearbox is built on lies, scamming, and manipulation. Borderlands is bottom of the barrel trash for brain-dead morons. The people who enjoy borderlands haven't played fuckall for shooters or video games and would be impressed by a fucking card trick in a bar.

From the bottom of my heart, fuck Randy Pitchford. Fuck Gearbox. Fuck Borderlands. Fuck every worthless pile of human garbage that continues to support this monumental blight on the medium.

Randy Pitchford's worthless opinion on video games could not possibly be less relevant. Fuck you for even validating it with propagation.

I think Randy is a loser as much as the next guy but this makes you sound so insufferable. It's just fucking videogames, man

I don't even slightly know what kind of faggot zoomer slang you are using but fuck your entire heritage and family bloodline.

Randy bobandy claimed that he and gaben were playing poker and he won the name gearbox

The video game industry itself may be "dying" in 5 to 10 years. SNOY is trying to murder Japanese developers as we speak and then all we'll have left are absurdly over-entitled pretentious western devs and their shitty battle royale looter shooter early access survival crafting $120 plus Season Pass DLC tip.

To say nothing of Duke Nukem Forever.

lmao he can't even stop lying when it comes to his fucking stories with other people

If that. The industry is really on shaky ground right now and all itt's going to take are a few back-to-back blunders to shake confidence in it enough to make it collapse.

The market is over-saturated and filled with stupid meme shit like BR's and Season Passes and loot crates, but by no means is the industry going to die. It's continually growing more mainstream and is appealing to different areas through shit like livestreaming and esports and whatever. This is the healthiest the industry has ever been and it's still on the up

Look Randy, you've gone to the epic store. What's up with all this gay ass gymnastics of you trying to justify it? I got over it the next day, but you're still chatting shit. Just shut up and leave the internet for a while. Is it so hard to refrain from saying stupid shit?

how many bottles of tencent pills did randy take?

None, he's just desperate

i'm not that faggot you responded to but my friends tried to get me to play them even tho I played the original borderlands when it first came out and didn't get much further than when you get the car. it's so basic and just not enjoyable in the slightest

>"Gearbox's Pitchford"

You mean the guy who said that valve wanted to call their platform "GearBox" instead of steam but they were too late to the punch?

He's just ass mad because he got review bombed, so he's declaring Steam to be dead (and that's a good thing) out of impotent rage.

>HOW WILL HE EVER RECOVER?
With all the money he made I'm sure he can afford a couple psychotherapists to handle the bad news

He's really insecure about the choices he's made. If he really was confident, he wouldn't feel to need to constantly justify it.

Also, it kinda put in perspective those weird tweets he made a few months ago about those mall booth selling Fortnite bootleg stuff.

yes yes we get it, you're a shill randy. Its not worth saying otherwise since nobody will respect you for your "hot take" just gotta show your chinese overlords the money is working

That seems pretty in-character with what Randy would do. He is the saddest kind of bizarre

Im still blown away that he got away with stealing money from Sega to fund Borderlands.
I just cant comprehend american justice system, how the fuck can you steal millions, brag about it, confess and tell everybody to fuck off, and just walk away, and then steal 5$ in a store and get send to 10 years.

Literally snitching on some guy trying to make a little money in a way that Epic wont be hurt in the slightest by. What a fucking loser. Also considering he literally ripped off the Borderland's art style, he's chatting a lot of shit for a thief.

So this means that Steam is a massive success?

Pachter is a literally paid guess the future guy, its his job to make shit up and he gets paid millions for it, also hes an out of touch boomer
Pitchford is plain up retarded, also isnt he in legal problems?

He did this shit with some kind of booth selling emulator consoles too. What a sad dude.

Sweeney is in for a rude awakening if he thinks Randy is now loyal to him.

Why does Randy keep on saying retarded shit? It's starting to make hate for gearbox overpower my fondness for borderlands

This is the end of Trumps campaign.

Source me on the video, I want to see a magic trick.

Fuck, I hate Pitchford so much. He and fucking Burch have been holding this series hostage for years now. So much potential with Borderlands, but we can't get anything interesting out of it because fags like him at Gearbox are in charge of things. Between this and the EPIC shit, I'm about ready to throw in the towel with trying to enjoy the series regardless.

He literally owns himself in the future in this vid

Am I wrong or didn't this guy get done for having child porn on his computer? I swear that was a story.

It's not like he's breaking his pattern. He's done the same with Sega, will do the same with Epic.

It may be a dying store in 5 to 10 years, that's a fuck long time.

Anything may happen in fucking 10 years.

It already did for me. I never bought a single Borderlands game, always pirated, but when they announced 1 was getting a remaster plus The Handsome Collection was being sold for basically 5 bucks I said fuck it and decided to buy them to replay them before 3. But all this assholery sealed the deal for me, I am not buying anything from Gearbox ever again, I don't know what possessed me to fucking buy it in the first place, but now I'd rather play a used copy on a fucking console than giving Randy any of my money.

Attached: 1384300726884.jpg (242x208, 15K)

Its a really weird story overall, supposedly he just left his drive on his desk and a coworker grabbed it and everyone in the office saw its contents before giving it back

Valve likely has so much money that they can probably lose hundreds of millions of dollars every year and be a thing well into the next few decades, but the thing is there's no way that Steam or any of Valve's servers / services cost enough to ever make that a possibility.

Pitchford is just trying to justify supporting the Epic Games Store, which will inevitably die in about a year when Steam lowers their share of game revenue a little more.

this

fuck, it was bad enough that he was making steamfags wait for the game to be on an actual good platform

but now he takes every fucking opportunity to run his company's reputation into the ground

That wasnt what he was getting sue for, that was a bonus hilarious story that leaked about him.
He was getting sued for funneling 10mln$ out of Gearbox through a shell company among many other things.

I like to imagine all these Epic exclusive games are contracts that were already sealed years ago and now when games start coming out and not selling well people will start treating Epic like the plague and everything will go back to normal. We know for a fact they don't like jap games so jap games so Steam is already winning in that front.

Hes at lest not as bad as Tim Shafer, that gay made whole stage presentations about how he hates gamers, men, and anybody who is even a bit close to the center from a complete communist.

But that goes for a lot of devs. People like Phil Fish or CliffyB always seem to fall down the well of insanity.

but it only feels like 7

>but now he takes every fucking opportunity to run his company's reputation into the ground
I'm glad the borderlandsfags are finally seeing this shit. He's been doing this since duke and colonial marines. Randy still denies they were at fault for the shittacular game that was colonial marines.

How did Randy become our guy so fast?

They literally cant stop anyone from staying on W7 though.

Will the Japanese make their own PC gaming store? If no Steam isn't going anywhere.

Not wrong if Epic works on their store. Valve needs to make games again

nintendo's store and sony's store are both garbage so I can't imagine them being able to make anything successful without going the exclusive games route

But I'm running Windows Server. I imagine businesses worldwide would be asshurt if Microsoft restricted server editions to nonexistent server apps from their store which doesn't even exist in the OS.
Client Windows can suck a fat microsoft chode.

No he's a shitty party magician

Wasn't that shit already like 6 months away when they announced it? Did it really get delayed further?

It was at GDC. He did some bad stand up and sang a song about bigots.

who cares. nice of him to give himself such leeway though.

No fuckin idea, sounds like some shit randy would try.

Not even joking, how do you manage to launch a store but not have the option to add to cart? That's just the standard man.

Maybe they'll go back to physical? Japanese PCs still come with DVD drives as a standard option.

Hello Anthony Burch

>steam will never die. it's too good.
I think it's less about it being good and more about it being because people aren't going to abandon their investment, you know their libraries, to restart on a platform. If steam does fail, the mindset switches to "it has happened once, what's to stop it from happening again". Piracy will skyrocket.

People do like Borderlands 2 writing though. It's only a vocal minority (like a couple of anons on Yea Forums) the ones that hate it.

VALVe will never make games again? You think them dying will make them get back to Half Life 3? Ha, fuck you, you're never getting it and if they die they are more likely to do some desperate mobile gacha shit than coming back to HL.

How would the success of other game launchers motivate Valve to start making games again? If anything it would just motivate them to start being more aggressive with securing exclusives from third-party studios. Who honestly cares about Valve games anymore anyways.

Big fucking whoop, Half Life is overrated anyway. I want a good storefront. I have to deal with shit from uPlay and Origin and the like because of exclusives, but there's no way I would use them for anything else. If Epic takes over PC gaming I'm moving to consoles.

Back in 2003 when Steam took over PC gaming I moved back to consoles for 9 years, I can easily do it again.

Because GabeN won't censor at their demands.

uhm wow...okay let's unpack this...
stop being a fucking bigot okay???

I don't pay attention to embezzlers.

if they shove enough propaganda down peoples throats idiots might start believing it

They're having money thrown at them I believe. That and it's very easy clickbait. It's all just a way to manipulate the consumer. Games journalists suck corporate cock on a daily basis.

Nah fuck off, they're both equally as awful. Ones a raging cuck that is jealous about his sister being more successful than he ever will be and he's probably still angry his wife took the wiiu when she left him. And then there's pitchford, the dude who can't go more than 5 minutes without telling a lie or trying to wash his hands clean of a lie he's told. I never thought I'd see someone in the industry more of a liar than molyneux.

Because the epic store is what they want steam to be:
highly curated = no hentai or alt-right games, also less games in general to compete with
no reviews = so no one can insult their 2 hour walking sims
no automated reviews = so no one can refund their 2 hour walking sims
free money even if the games fail to sell = because nobody buys their shitty games anyway

Epic is basically a customer's worst nightmare and that's why journalists love it, it's a giant middle finger to us toxic gamers.

Journalists and the like surprisingly love China a lot despite calling their own fellow Americans for "denying people human rights". We should honestly deport all of them to China and see how they like it, Randy too.

Randy literally did all of that but in the form of a song.

>If anything it would just motivate them to start being more aggressive with securing exclusives from third-party studios.
That's not how valve operates. They'll just make it more convenient for people to use their client.

steam actually is good. lots of massive sales, top download speed, nice review system, discussion forums, steam workshop, screenshot sharing, friendlist with text and voice chat, gifting games, reselling keys, multiplayer integration (steamids).
just some things that come to my mind very quickly.
but of course doomer cunts want to see everything burning and dying.

0/10 unfunny cringe

do you have severe autism

>alt-right games
It's amazing how a single shitty game turned Steam into the Fourth Reich to journalists. The journalists spent months treating Steam as some neo nazi hangout purely because some guy tried to release that rape game on it.

>Back in 2003 when Steam took over PC gaming

In 2003 the only shit on Steam was Half Life, CS 1.6, TFC and Ricochet. There wasn't non-Valve stuff until at least 2006. Unless you literally played nothing but Valve games, you're talking completely out of your ass.

b-b-but Gaben! He's my hero DELETE THIS

dis x9000

Randy hates steam with a passion, so he could release his game on GOG. Of course, he won't do it because he is allergic to non-DRM.

more like
>bordelands may be "a dying franchise" in 5-10 years

it happened with hatred too.

>highly curated
This one is the funniest, I hope they roll in it when they realize Epic doesn't give a shit about letting their indieshit onto the storefront unless you're a proven name

>I want a good storefront.
>Back in 2003 when Steam took over PC gaming I moved back to consoles for 9 years
this entire post contradicts itself

Indiefags are already whining about it.

To clarify, I'm not saying steam isn't good, I like steam even if it has some issues. It doesn't help that Epic is extremely anti-consumer, shady and archaic.

I don't get this argument desu, valve games are not that good, I don't give a fuck if valve never makes another one. Steam has been far more useful to gaming than any or alll of valve's games combined, in fact valve's games have been pretty cancerous to gaming for various reasons.

>no hentai

Not cool man, it took so damn long. Censorship's been cracking down so heavily in the last year in the war on sexuality that it's cut tumblr's viewership by 1/5 and more content getting being cut from games.

Randy "Is Borderlands 3 the new Half-Life 3" Pitchford
Dude's a fucking moron.

>They're both equally as awful

Burch wrote Borderlands 2 (after being hired by Pitchford) and went on to have a series of embarrassing outbursts and private scandals that never really ended up hurting anyone besides himself, to my knowledge.

Pitchford:
>Fucked up Duke Nukem Forever, at one point held on the same pedestal as Episode 3
>Fucked up Colonial Marines, ANOTHER huge long-running dream game by siphoning funding to it to make Borderlands 2, which is now disgustingly popular
>Did that creepy thing where he tried to get people to visit his battleborn porn reddit
>Left his usb stick full of borderlands 3 shit and creepy fucking porn at medieval times and acted completely shameless about it
>Did that song and dance number that I can't even remember the details of because it was so thoroughly embarrassing that I blocked it from my memory
>Said that the EGS move was completely out of his hands and is now shilling for it as though that doesn't look sketch
>The bathroom photo
>had all of his money stolen by a personal financier

I'm forgetting shit, too. Pitchford is like Burch 40 years down the line, when he's become completely immune to his own shame.

That's what the fat fuck gets for sitting on his ass for years. It's not just steam that's dying but PC gaming in general, with the exception of multiplayer games. Consoles are getting all the cool exclusives and PC at best is only getting heavily downgraded and often unoptimized multiscraps. It's a fucking joke. Valve should used its vast resources to make more games, and work together with other devs to make some nice pc exclusives. They should have also been more proactive in getting indie devs to use source engine for their games.

>Randy Pitchford
You mean the guys that mixes porn with important corp documents in a usb, forgets said usb at a restaurants and isn't level-headed enough to just admit he wants to jack off when ever?
Or the guy that siphoned funds away from Aliens CM to fund his own interests?
The guy lies more than Todd Howard and Peter Molyneux combined. Why would anyone take him seriously? He's not even charismatic.

what about h-half life bro...? it revolutionized video games...

I like borderlands 2, I thought it was pretty fun even, I just don't like Anthony Burch or Randy whatsoever. They're not likable. At all

What indie games are released for consoles first and then ported to PC?

PC gaming is not even remotely close to dying, it's more popular than ever and it's making more money than ever, sure it's garbage like BRs and mobas causing growth but that doesn't mean it's dead.

PUBG lost to fortnite, MOBAs as a whole have failed to battle royale, CSGO does well
paladins/tf2 are both dead.

Yes, it has been for years.

i remember this but tell me it again?
Didn't gabe joke about calling it that and dude was serious

borderlands is a fluke that's keeping his company alive after many failures

But user, Exodus sold A WHOLE 2.5 TIMES OF STEAM'S METRO LAST LIGHT SALES.
Last Light sold 50k and Last Light Redux sold 1.5 million so that means Exodus either did 125k or 3.75 million, and I'm pretty sure it's the former.

too bad borderlands is shit

it was the same thing with MOBAs. heroes of newerth, dawn gate, heroes of the storm, and i'm sure there's a dozen others that never made it out of development before MOBAs stopped being relevant.

tf2 is mostly mexicans

>Randy criticizes Steam for the lack of curation and says that Steam should not allow bad games on the store, unlike Epic Games who refuse bad games to be released on it

Neck yourself.

>the people who screech about Epic providing healthy competition to prevent monopoly are the same people who can't hide their excitement at the thought of Steam being shut down
lmao

>tf2 is dead
Why do people keep saying this? Its playerbase is nothing compared to Fortnite or Overwatch, but it's still got a damn big playerbase. You can't call a game dead until it's dwindled to a few thousand people and they stop updating the game

>O:¥
what the fuck

I have no idea dude, I installed a Japanese IME and now \ is ¥ for some reason. It doesn't bother me.

>BL3 is on sale on GMG
>GMG takes 30%
What happened to the EGS is good because of the 12% deal argument? By making the game purchasable on a platform that has a 70/30 split, it completely invalidates that argument. This industry is ridiculous.

Don't forget battleborn

you didn't hear that they announced end of support for tf2 a few weeks ago? No more "content updates" AKA dead as shit. and it's a f2p game, it's numbers are heavily inflated.

holy hell where did the time go. I was graduating with my bachelor's and now I'm about to graduate with my master's.

Didn't happen, nor would it ever happen. It'd crash the game's economy overnight.

Randy Pitchfork is the sole reason why minorities have an indescribable hatred for white people but they can't put their finger on why

Because journalists wants gamers to get their credit card info stole so that nazism would be destroyed once and for all.

>In 2003 the only shit on Steam was Half Life, CS 1.6, TFC and Ricochet.

Gearbox will die far before Steam will and it will happen soon too.

That's disgusting. I would never be able to deal with that.

>If they were moving millions of copies you know they would be bragging about the numbers but they don't release any info beyond X people downloaded some free game.
best part is that they say like 5 million people downloaded their free games, but they forget to tell you that's 5% of all epic launcher users. A 5% CONVERSION RATE FOR A FREE GAME.

Don't forget you can create an Epic account without any authorization from the email, so Russians and Southeast Asians are creating Epic accounts en masse with people's emails and selling them once they collected lots of free games.

Today I will remind them.

Bl3 is releasing in an extremely oversaturated market. not only is that working against them, but most of their long term customers are not going to be purchasing it due to it being on egs. everyone is assuming this game is going to be a wild success like Bl2, but I'm not so sure it will. The trailer looked fucking awful, they ruined a shit ton of good will with their season pass scam in Bl2 (I haven't forgotten and its the sole reason I will never purchase another "season pass" ever again).

I think Bl3 is going to do poor numbers and will be lambasted by critics when it does come out. Compounding their already shaky reputation and making Bl3 this Fall's Fallout 76

I dunno, I think now is a good time for BL3, all the other loot shooters are pretty shitty.

>The people who enjoy borderlands haven't played fuckall for shooters or video games and would be impressed by a fucking card trick in a bar.
That's a lot of asshole packed into one sentence. Good job, I'm legitimately offended and saving it as copypasta.

you're assuming it's going to be a good game. not an empty shell that pisses everyone off. time will tell, but something seems way off with their trailer. like the game was in development hell and doesn't look very good. Bl2's DLC were god awful. amazingly garbage that managed to piss off everyone. the gayming world has moved on well past where Bl2 went and should they offer up more of the same, which i expect they will, it will be torn apart and moving to egs will have some negative consequences for their game

He means real video games, not that gay shit you're talking about that isn't video games.

unironicaly the only good post in this thread
(You) deserved this

>bl2 end game is trash
then why do more people play 2 than 1 and TPs combined at any given moment?
popularity and player count shot up more after the UVHM DLC than any of the other DLCs
just because the game was too hard for you dont mean the core of the fan base doesnt like it

I wonder if the people excited for BL3 even played the BL2 DLC and the Pre-Sequel.
>they took the cool Athena and married her off to the shitty dyke who won't shut up about how much of a lesbian she is

>Pitchford
lol

>twitter cap
literally who

Lmao Randy is such a fucking moron

TPS is worse than BL2. end game in BL1 is objectively better

Nope good luck with that epic will run out of money and then order will be restored.
