Tencent will grow to become the anti-Steam, mark my words. They already have their grubby mitts all over devs worldwide, and every single one will live to regret it (or their players, at the very least).
You say that like they don’t own a sizeable chunk of Epic.
exactly they are already doing it.
It’s okay. The Fediverse assured me again and again it won’t matter how much Tencent owns of your company so as long as you “don’t think about them (Tencent)”. Whatever that means.
Not only is that headline’s grammar exceptional(ly bad), for a moment I thought the developer of Control was named Alan Wake. Like, how did they manage to butcher that so badly?
If that’s what they meant, there would have been a comma after “Control developer” I believe.
This is not the place for commas. This calls for a slash.
Alan Wake / Control developer agrees
No, it doesn’t say “Control developer Alan Wake …”
That’s a perfectly normal headline composition.
I can tell you weren’t on newspaper staff
News headlines aren’t limited by space on physical paper anymore. If your headline is confusing because of traditions based on outdated limitations it’s not a good headline imo.
Your opinion doesn’t outweigh decades of an entire industry
That headline would have been rejected decades ago.
K. Nor do industry traditions invalidate my opinion.
Your opinion has no bearing on the industry standard. Kick rocks, kid.
Yeah I feel there is a weird history between steam and remedy media. Like I remember when you could one day buy Alan Wake like really cheap since it was being taken off steam. Then the Epic deal making Alan Wake 2 exclusive basically meant they excluded a lot of customers immediately on steam.
That’s too bad.
If they need money honestly Tencent is better than a lot of the alternatives who might be willing to invest.
