BORDERLANDS 3 ON EGS WON'T HAVE A PRELOAD

Here is the Epic Game Store feature roadmap.

Attached: epic_roadmap.png (800x908, 192K)

Are you implying it's 2007? What is Epic's excuse for not having these? Especially when steam literally laid the groundwork for this shit.

What the fuck is preloading?

When you're so bad you cannot copy 2007 features. Or even 1998 features hahahahahaha

epic is a multi-multi-million dollar company. why the fuck couldn't they have all these basic features? even the fucking uplay launcher is better than theirs.

>long term
>shopping cart
Kek

do they seriously think they can make the epic store a money generator like stream? especially with only 10% cuts? seems like they are just throwing money at it. when do they expect to make that money back?

>Shopping Cart: long term (>6 months)

>shopping cart after wishlist
What's the fucking point of a list if you have to manually go through the fucking thing

This has been pushed back how many times now? Some of the shit has been on the 4-6 month list for over a fucking year now.

This is so confusing. I'm only an amateur programmer but I could still spin up an online storefront with core features like A FUCKING SHOPPING CART in a couple of days at the outside

thanks tims weenie but desu i dont really care since im just going to day1 torrent anyways

I can't understand why people defend EGS's lack of basic features
It's like building a house and neglecting water and electricity entirely. Sure it was acceptable in the stone age but it's 2019

Reminder that moving the goalposts is a guaranteed way to lose any standing you have

Unless Steam released the software source under this

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GNU_General_Public_License

Then there was no "groundwork laid". Everyone else has to start from 0

So basically their roadmap is just steal everything that steam does and provide no innovation. You can tell they're owned by the Chinese

Go on lad!

Pre-load is a meme.
Unpacking the fucking thing takes longer than just downloading it at release.

Yo retard. Amazon had a fucking shopping cart in the goddamn mid 90's. Built in website templates have shopping carts for years now.

No steam no buy. Get it through your thick skulls, EPIC. I don't care if it's my most anticipated game, I'll await for a pirated copy for however long it takes, or I'll simply forget about it and move on.

YOU. CAN'T. WIN.

Epic is a far bigger company than valve was then
And if they want to compete with steam they have to be better NOW not better compared to fifteen years ago.

Won't have cloud saves or achievements either.

>It was the year 1984 itself when the world’s first B2C (Business-to-Consumer) online shopping system was launched by Tesco. The online shopping system started the concept of Online Shopping Basket which was later renamed Online Shopping Trolley.

>Yo retard. Amazon had a fucking shopping cart in the goddamn mid 90's.

You know what Amazon had before Steam? User reviews. Yet it took Steam till 2010.

See:

>WAAAAAAHHHHH MUH CLOUD SAVES I DONT WANT TO REPLAY GAMES I PAID FOR

>WAAAAAHHHHH MUH CHEEVOS

and neither can you, no vidya for steamcucks lol
this is the console wars all over again, but for fucking shops

And gog as well
And all the publisher specific launchers
Epic has a huge amount of places they could learn from the mistakes and successes of.

Why does Yea Forums suddenly care about this "tumblr art game that looks like shit and I wouldn't buy it" Ooblets game anyway? Lashing out like this is usually driven by... fear. A fear of what? That Steam won't be the premier place for PC games?

Or, is it more likely that you won't be able to "punish" the game by not buying it or leaving negative reviews until you get your way?

If you've ever read I Have No Mouth and I Must Scream, Yea Forums reminds me of the AI who loves to torture and abuse the ones he thinks he has control over, but is instantly worried that he'll lose his play things forever.

>Reminder Steam didn't have achievements until the Orange Box in 2007
Achievements weren't really a thing until 2005 and xbox 360 gamerscore.
So Valve wasn't that far behind the edge.

Groundwork in the sense that Steam put in the time and effort to find out what does and doesn't work for the last decade now. Anyone else coming into the digital storefront can just look at Steam and go "Ok, we can use this feature and this feature, don't use this, and also this."

Epic in the meantime decided to just start from scratch and redo all their market research and effort that Steam's already done, including falling into many of the same mistakes and potholes Steam already did. There's no reason Epic should be tripping over half the problems they currently are, especially with how much money they can throw at it.

The shopping cart thing is pretty much a good example of that. How do they not have one yet? I know several people who could throw one up on the store in less than a fucking day. Don't give me shit about it being a 6+ month long project.

Actually having the features implemented.

That is completely irrelevant when it comes to how shitty the EGS is. You're just making a fool out of yourself.

implementing features available elsewhere isn't innovative you sperg

You don't need to know the exact code something used to copy a simple interface feature.
The only things of value in the steam code are the recommendation algorithms and controller support.
The Linux stuff is already open source.

ahahaha dude im totally gonna discuss the epic game story every day for a year ahahahahaha

you wanting a social network on a fucking digital video game store is whats making a fool out of you

IIRC, downloading the biggest chunks of the game so that once it actually comes out, it just has a minimal amount to make the game playable so you can pretty much just start playing it a few minutes after it goes online.

Aaaand the thread is full of stinky chinkies posting wojaks and talking about "b-but steam in 2003!" on damage control already. How surprising.

If they're so available, why doesn't EGS have them?

A shopping cart is a social network?

You download the game in advance and it unlocks on release, let's you start playing right away.

aaaand all the steamtrannies are coming out of the woodworks
remember when valve was universally hated here before EGL and after the paid mods fiasco? yeah...

EGS is a lot older than it's first year. It just adopted aggresive capitalism recently.

Is this the training you got to shill your shoddy storefront on here Chang? To blindly strawman anyone that dare disagrees or make a strong point? Sad!

What's Tim's problem?

You know it takes years to develop features, right?

Steam wasn't good until about 2018 when they first added controller customization - all Steam had was exclusive games.

So what's the point in shilling the EGS and trolling people who post in the threads? (You)s? Are you that drained for entertainment that you take to an anonymous video games imageboard to deliberately be retarded?

so wanting to be able to pre-load games and having a fucking shopping cart are social network features now?

I never use preload, even on steam. Is this really important?

No matter how bad steam gets its still better than your state funded chink spyware Chang.

What's the problem? Epic does not have preload for borderlands, steam does not have borderlands,

Is getting gigabit internet that hard to do?

It's not like you have to invent them again.
The features are already there and the coding and infrastructure for them established.
New services have no reason not to implement things that are already standard in the industry then compare themself to services from over a decade ago.

That'd be like if every human had to start in a mid hut and discover creating fire again.

Darn, guess I’ll just wait till midnight

Now this is starting to get into territory I'm not quite sure about; if Steam has a patent on any of that, Epic outright can't just copy something like a Universal Controller remapping system - possibly.

I don't have shit internet so downloading things like this isn't a big deal for me. Are you brazilian?

proton was developed by valve for steam users you drooling retard
just because they are good guys and made it open source for everyone doesn't mean it's not a steam thing

Nigger this is the saddest shitposting I've seen of all time. I hope you're just a bored underageb& for your sake.

So pre-ordering anything on the Epic game store is just giving Epic money in advance for no reason?

Not that there were many legitmate reasons left to pre-order anything from anywhere, but this is just too funny

>made me google
motherfucker

kek

Back when EGS first came out and the shills were in force I really thought they were going to be adding features fast and furious. But it’s been a year or so and we’ve gotten cloud saves on a few games and that’s about it.

It tells me that when Tim said his opinion was that gamers don’t matter and only devs will decide who wins he wasn’t lying. Because they’re obviously putting most of their resources into dev payola not building a great customer experience.

I Have No Mouth and I Must Scream is the depiction of the everyday life of your average chinaman.

What other platforms have Half-Life 1, Half-Life 2, Portal, Portal 2 and Team Fortress 2?

Those features take years to come up with
They were coded in weeks or even days.

There is not just steam but also Gog and the publisher specific launchers epic can learn from.

Epic employees commute.

Even fucking Nintendo has preloading. How incompetent is Epic?

>Epic isn't even as good as a client from 2007

>They were coded in weeks or even days.

Then Steam is even more pathetic than I realised

It really shouldn't have taken till 2010 to add user reviews

i'd like to thank chinky sweeney for bringing piracy back

It's just how China does business.
Here most places have adopted a culture of misery for their workers is profit.
In China that extends to your customers, adding features and convenience is a sign of defeat, better to spend billion putting the assholes that compete with you and add them out of business instead.

Products don’t choose their customers dumbass.

We live in a world where more games came out on a weekly basis than any one person has any time for. It’s not like 2001 when GTA3 came out and everyone “had” to have it. My life is just fine without EGS exclusives.

Fuck you Tim

Every single one of those has been released on a console.

Uplay, Battle.net and Origin still don't have user reviews, so the Steam drone "groundwork being laid doe!!!1" narrative is completely bunk

Oh no no no.

Did you not bother reading the rest of the post?

Repeat after me, valve is customer friendly

>Valve has acknowledged in its end-user licence agreement that customers residing in European Union countries are legally entitled to a 14-day period where they can return purchased goods for refund.

However, the corporation asks its customers to waive that right at point of purchase. It means that, while Valve acknowledges the rights of its EU customers, the option for a refund disappears the moment a game is purchased.

> imagine actually being this retarded

That was 2007 and 2010 respectively

None. Steam cucks are just triggered that CHAD Epic gets all the girls despite beta Steam being le nice guy

Fair enough. But steam is split up into a community part, and a store front part. I personally don't care that much for the community part, it's nice to have, but not essential.

Do these other store fronts have shopping carts, or other store related features? Does Epic store have it now?

This may be the first time in about 10 years now I buy a new game on console. gf has a playstation, and wants the game. Just gonna get a second controller when I pick it up, tv is fuckin huge we can split screen.

But would it be good? Would it be reliable? Beta testing for Day 1 exploits is a bit more important I think.

I’ve seen all the threads you’re referencing, but none of them have been upset about not being able to play, or even care about ooblets. No one even knew it existed; this was a false flag marketing campaign. Good job, smoothbrain

Or, to put it another way, Steam has had those features for 12 years and 9 years, respectively. They are now considered standard features and any competition would be expected to have them. This isn't exactly hot new tech.

>old computers can be updated to have screens
Debatable

That's not how it worked on Steam so far. The game must first decypher all the encrypted game files and it took up to 20 minutes if I recall correctly.

Damn not even noon yet and we already have the most retarded post of the day.

Shopping carts
I think blizzards launcher is still lacking them but it has less than 10 games. All the others shipped with carts.

What does Epic have, other than bought exclusives, that steam doesn't? Why doesn't steam get their own bought exclusives, or are they actually still winning without having to try?

I'm a retard how does it take 6 months to add shopping karts to your shop?

I'd prefer user reviews to shopping carts, smooth brain Steam drone.

I can see that for battlenet, seeing how until activision started to push their properties there, it wasn't really that much of a store, and more of a platform for blizzards games.

They are all Valve's own games. They can keep their own games where ever they please. Ain't nobody complaining what Epic is doing with their own games like Fortnite and... Gears Of War? They did bulletstorm too If I remember right.

nah steam just downloads the game files but leaves out the .exe, after the game is released the exe is downloaded

Web shopping carts are actually non-trivial to implement due to edge cases.
What if a user puts a million games in their shopping cart? It could crash their computer. You have to handle these sorts of things so it takes awhile to program.

just set a limit to the items? also epic store has less than 100 game. also it's relatively easy to program.

but most importantly, there are standards and already made libraries for the fucking shopping carts, you don't have to reinvent the wheel each time

>They are now considered standard features

Origin, Battle.net and Uplay still don't have user reviews.

GOG has user reviews but no Steam workshop for mods.

Read again

GOG GALAXY had more during its alpha than EGS had currently.
And GOG GALAXY is an optional client which isn't even that old. You either didn't read my post or you are a newfag and don't remember the time GOG had no client whatsoever and you only had the option to DDL all installers

GOG launched in 2018

Almost nobody knew about Ooblets, it wasn't even this well established game or anything that boomers paid for in advance like Shenmue 3 or Mechwarrior 5. I think it had to do more with the fact that it was the devs posts on his blog and discord that got peoples attention, and then it snowballed out of control for a game almost nobody really cares for anymore.

Epic, has games
Steam, has features but no games

Why would i use steam over epic? I'm here for games

Just pirate it, if it has Denuvo, then pirate it a couple weeks later then you normally would.

2.0 is just GOG Galaxy except it supports games from other platforms.

It's not a new client.

This is like saying car manufacturers have to start from Horses and carriages to compete with other major car manufacturers. You're retarded

So once again randy and his team are the incompetent ones.

True, steam started signing up exclusive contracts with major developers in 2005. Still, 2 years for shopping cart. I think epic may be as good as them

Putting thought and time into buying multiple products at once, is more consumer healthy than literally buying a single game on a whim.

The person going to a store once in a while with a shopping list and cart, isn't a worse consumer than the one just going in every day and impulse buying a single worthless item.

steam only introduced achievements once some console games started moving to PC. thanks, consoles, for making gaming more cancerous by the minute.

What a retard

I am glad that you stopped posting. I got a second-hand embarrassment just by reading this.

Epic is pro-customer, they want us to think about each purchase.

So epic is competing with 2006 steam? Good to know, they gave up then. They released a product planned to fail.

I don't care about all the EGS bullshit honestly, only game on there that I wanted is metro and I pirated it instead (started the game and uninstalled it after 5 minutes because I was too lazy). But these niggers copy with how barebones EGS client is is funny. Literally every other client has more features than EGS.

You say this like people using steam actually care about the success of the EGS. Imagine getting so excited by the health of some massive chink corporation

>so for every copy of MCC you buy, Epic gets a slice
why should i care? enjoy not playing halo menus on epic gay store, lmao

Times change, insect. Adapt or die.

So far steam is failing hard, you can have a nice shop but if you have nothing to sell in it then who cares?

Absolutely assblasted, shitter shattered and rectum ravaged.

Literal coping mechanism posts, my man.

>pro-customer
Then why do they hate competition and love stealing data?

Not a fucking excuse at all. If you are entering a market to compete, you bring your fucking standards above 2006, and if not, no complaining when Steam runs your low options ass over. You cannot have your cake and eat it too here, you are either competing with Steam and failing, or not competing and losing to them.

Well sorry to disappoint but I'm still here retard.

I wouldn't count key selling sites as competition since you still have to participate in the Steam (or some other launcher) ecosystem to actually play the game.

>B b but muh revenue split
It's ok, Chang. Good lord you are easy to read.

I'm sorry I dont care user

I mean fuck epic and fuck randy, but this isnt really that big of a deal. If you're gonna shit on Epic, just shit on it for being trash in general

You got me there.

>coping for who gets unreal engine's fees
????

He's literally the trump of video games

I fully agree on this point. I think it's good that there are more competition, because steam has been shit in a lot of ways. The problem with EGS is there exclusivity deals.

There's also the inherent problem with these store fronts, that people don't want to start up, and have accounts for a million different programs to do the same thing. Maybe that can be fixed with that GoG thing. I don't really see why there couldn't just be a free interface for the consumer, which the different stores feed into trough their different API's and letting all of the things like transactions, servers, and downloads occur in the back.

No wonder why this thread is still on going. People were too busy calling out a retard (you).

I dont know man, all those EGS exclusives sold what, 250-500k copies? Risk of Rain alone sold 2mil, and steam takes 30% from that + no paying up for exclusivity.

Yeah, prioritizing in sucking ass.

So you'll be happy to give money to Epic when you buy your copy of Halo MCC? Based

Epic getting UE4 money should bother you... but you're not that principled, Steam cuck. Keep giving Epic money.

>B but nintendo!

>pre-loaading

Fuck the Epic store but Steamdrones are pathetic creatures.

>Risk of Rain alone sold 2mil, and steam takes 30% from that + no paying up for exclusivity.

So Risk of Rain 2 sells 1 million copies x $20=$20,000,000

But factor in Steam's 30% cut, and it's down to 14,000,000

But Satisfactory sells 500,000 copies x $30=15,000,000

And you factor in Epic's 12%, that's down 13,750,000

So in the long run, Satisfactory will make way more money than Risk of Rain 2, especially with the cash injection from Epic for the exclusivity.

And I'm not even accounting for Gearbox's 10-15% they get from the ROR2 devs (Oops, that's gotta hurt)

It doesn't take that long to introduce those features though, those features were current at that point in time.

You can feel the secret seething of the Steam drone that made this

So, what does the future hold for the epic store?
Will they keep being so "nice" to all the indie (and non indie) devs once they have consolidated a substitutional user base?

>ITT we act like it's 2001?

Probably because achievements became a thing in 2005 when Microsoft did it first with Microsoft's Xbox 360 Gamerscore system

In 2007, Valve became the second large publisher to release a platform-based, multi-game achievement system for their Steam platform, eventually capturing a wide number of Windows, Mac OS X, Linux, and SteamOS based games.

In 2008, Sony followed suit by offering Trophies for the PlayStation 3.

So Steam was the second platform on the planet to get achievements.

Sony and Xbox had reviews but only a star review system that doesn't allow text.

reminder that you're in 2019 and EGS still doesn't have shit.

kek

They are nice to all devs. Remember the revenue split

GoG has no reviews, and there is only a handfull of games with archivments. We hate GoG too now ?

Their future holds bleeding money and slowly crippling themselves trying to keep Fortnite relevant.

>feels the need to shit talk a 9-month-old store
steamdrones feeling more insecure every day

GoG doesnt have an army of skills trying to claim its superior to steam at the behest of insectmen

Yes, but Steam never bought out games to force consumers to use its platform rather than others. Despite not having certain features, it gained its market share with what features it did have, not with exclusivity contracts.

GoG doesn't have a horde of paid shills on Yea Forums constantly spewing lies.

>Fortnite
>dying anytime soon
don't hold your breath

I thought Sweeney didn't want garbage on his platform hmm

They already tell most indies to fuck off. They only want indies with already established fanbases and hype.

People do claim that actually, very often in fact. But based on the amount of revenue gog is earning we can assume they are full of shit and talk about GoG to get social credits for being diffrent

>Their future holds bleeding money and slowly crippling themselves trying to keep DOTA 2 relevant.

Attached: twitch steam dota.jpg (1327x869, 409K)

I feel like GoG can get away with a lot of stuff (as if reviews and achievements really matter), because they offer an alternative with different ideals than steam. I don't really use GoG, so I might be wrong, but their anti DRM ideals lend them a different user base then steam.

Damn I guess that excuses EGS for having 2006 standards

GoG offers you ability to download and install games wherever you want without bothering with the DRM crap. Perhaps Epic should also copy that if they are so great.

The redditors are goldfish, attention spans so short they already forgot PUBG and Dayz before that

>So, what does the future hold for the epic store?
I have really no idea, because the shit shop doesn't seem to be good for anything except exclusives, but they have to pay for the exclusives so they don't actually get money from those. So we've got a shop which does not sell things which make a profit, it only sells things which make a loss. It seems almost paradoxical.

Where's the huge selection of games to choose from? Where's the incentive to use EGS as a general-purpose store and not as the shitty exclusive tax system? What's the point of having a store if you have to pay sellers extra on the side in order for them to use it? It's all so nonsensical, it's like Timmy had too much money and decided to fuck around for laughs, I can't see how this store is going to establish itself as a general-purpose alternative. Epic isn't even selling all their own games on their own fucking shop, for fuck's sake. They're selling them on Steam and GOG instead.

Epic store as a service won't be kept alive by a few forgetable exclusives from 2019.

when fortnite dies, so do all the exclusives they have, most likely you will be given a key to have those same "exclusives" on steam if you're lucky.

I don't understand the point you're trying to make. Artifact is shit, so no one on steam is playing it. How does that make it seem we don't know quality when we see it? Are you fucking special?

unlike the epic store, people use steam for the convenience of the service and not for valve's games.

True, the only reason steam is still alive is due to all time exclusives.Epic at least is not afraid to compete after short exclusivity period

how do you pre-load no games?

sorry if i just blew your little epic fail mind

Valve had hordes of chinese shills defending artifact since day 1. Every once in a while a few pop up to defend it and demand you buy it.

So I can either use Steam or wait a decade for Epic to catch up?

nah, you're just a dumbass. Fortnite isn't going anywhere. Stop dreaming steamcuck

That was the point, there is no reason to have pre-load when you don't have games my drone friend

You misunderstand. These are not exclusives that had to be negotiated to be released on Steam. Devs just didn't bother releasing it anywhere else because they don't think that other stores are just not worth the bother.

then again, fortnite and epic fail fans are under 18 so it's literally beating up a retarded toddler.

Because Epic is owned by people connected to an authoritarian regime.

It's not a secret that steam offers huge publishers such as origin and uplay other terms of services. At one point steam run out of ea keys for ea games for fuck sake, and in normal terms they could literally print them. But that info is not public

Preloading implies preordering, which Tim despises. Unironically based as fuck

Steam is the innovator. There's no reason for a modern game store not to have these thing. Even uPlay and Origin have these things and people considered them bloatware for years.

>he doesn't have gigabit internet
Must suck living in a 3rd world country.

A toddler who's disgustingly rich and has backing from the largest Chinese multimedia company.
I think that's a big part of why people dislike Epic, they can offer a worse service, abuse their employees and create an unhealthy market. But it doesn't matter, because their pockets are deep enough to get over anything.
Basically Epic is the guy who succeeds not because of merit but because he is rich, and we are all peasants.

At this point Tim is just doing it to troll the Gabe nipplesuckers

So let us not forget that almost every indie release ever is on Steam. Meanwhile Epic lacks Shovel Knight which released everywhere else simply because devs didn't think that bothering with releasing it on Epic has any point.
Steam is a go-to store for everyone, Epic needs to bribe every single exclusive they have.

Steam set the framework and it's not fucking hard to copy. It doesn't take years to copy the standard. It should take a few months at most.

China owns epic if china own steam then I would support gog but gog has no games I plays. Just because china only have 49% doesnt mean they have no power, they have the most power because they can work behind the shadows. China is very scary.

They are dependent on how good Fortnite does, but even without that they are licensing the Unreal Engine which also makes quite a bit of money.
The issue is that since they aren't a publicly traded company we can't determine anything with precision. All we have is information they publish voluntarily.

You just wanted to see that eye icon turn red every 10 seconds. Right user?

EGS will never be seen as anything but the place that had to bribe its way into the market. Only gimmicks will keep people coming back on their own. Free games? Timmy said that they're only doing it for this year. Profit cuts? As a consumer, who gives a shit. It won't result in cheaper games for me because trickle down has been debunked decades ago.

Impulse and Gamersgate did nothing special, and does anyone even remember that they exist? EGS is forced to buy exclusives indefinitely and pray that publishers don't succumb to backlash, because they ain't gonna get business otherwise

>3 companies on record for attacking "review bombs" don't implement reviews, despite them being a comment section with a thumbs up/down attached
>this fully discredits the basic idea of taking the ideas you enjoy from a competitor and coding them in a timely fashion somehow

I hope Tim "Mussolini" Sweeney never adds a shopping cart. Add everything else except the cart just to trigger steam babies

>tweet made in April
>it's now August and the Septic Game Store is still a featureless piece of shit.

Even Alphabet can't keep their shitty pet projects like Google+ on life support forever, and they've got more money laying around than Epic.

Thank god i have a wishlist to stop me from buying literal garbage.

Good thing it's 2019

>user reviews
huh? I thought the whole point of the epic store was to not have user reviews?

aside from outright lying, shit like xfire was enough competition for them back then to force them to actually grow and make today-standard features

They're opt-in reviews so you can only review a game if the dev allows you to and only if you give them a free blowjob.

They're opt in. In other words, if major publishers outsource their port job to kazakhstan they can just disable reviews so everyone buys it not knowing it's a broken piece of shit that they can't refund

controller customization is a pain in my ass and now I can't use my fucking controller because steam thinks I'm trying to take a screenshot every two seconds. I don't need steam to read my inputs, I need it to start a game and then go away

I remember seeing this list a couple of months ago, like in march or april, did they just sit on their exclusives and did jack shit to improve their store since then?

now wait a second, they get money from dumb kids buying llamas in fortnite too

>game that costs more money makes more money
stonks

>seething this much
Succesfully trolled

No one here is going to listen to you, chink. Give it up.

New thread

I mean the fucking Bethesda launcher has fucking preloading.

Trolling by pretending to be an epic shill is pathetically low hanging fruit and I can't believe people still respond to it. I like to think that's other people pretending to be retarded, but I know it's not likely.

>i won't listen to you!
Steambabby lost

New thread

>le shill
maybe some people don't give a shit about preloading or shopping carts
just a theory, dumbass

>He feels the need to be a corporate whore

This is actually what mental illness looks like

Try telling any potential customers that your competitions product used to be shit to justify why your product is really shitty, they would laugh at you for being a retard.

t. gabe cock sucker

Have sex, then you won't have to do things like this for fun.

>Randy's best estimate for a shopping cart takes six months to happen
>In reality it didn't even happen yet along with the majority of the features promised
Imagine unironically defending Epic like that one shill

New thread

This thread doesn't exist anymore

Things like what? Make steambabbies seethe?
They already do that on a weekly basis without my help

>b-but i wanted to play borderlands
too bad, gabe cock sucker. cope

I'll pray for you, everyone deserves to find love.

Nobody gives a shit about the game, what people cared about was the fact the dev was a major asshole to all his supporters along with the fact "journalists" and epic pretended he didn't do anything wrong, course you think its okay because in China the best outcome is being a bootlicker

risk of rain discordfags spamming shit and borderlands shit on Yea Forums

Sorry user but sucking on gabe's nipples doesn't mean you found love

I think the guy fell for his own shitposts and became an unironic shill, its the only plausible explanation by this point

Nice straw man
U r rly smart
