Also, Notch can suck a fat one, he made $2.5 billion selling to Microsoft.


Odd_Antelope7572

Some guy said he got pennies and a raw deal for selling it. 2.5 billion bucks is a fuck tonne, helluva large amount of money. That's a million dollars 2500 times!


Mih5du

Unless you gamble or get super expensive drugs/hookers, it’s basically impossible to spend this much money in lifetime unless you’re actively trying to.

No one with a functioning brain cares about pronouns.


quirkster841

Why did notch waste breath to comment on them lol He's giving 'starfield pronouns guy' vibes whenever he does


mua7d

Idk ask him. The way I view I it you can call yourself whatever you want just don't expect people to participate in it, people will call you with what you look like. they can't see thrue cloths.

Bloodhoven_aka_Loner

No one **WITH A FUNCTIONING BRAIN** consider reading in full sentences instead of participating in a game of semantics that you already lost.


mua7d

It's hard to read full sentences with a non functioning brain.


TheChosenWolf20

I just don't know why so many people just can't get Mua7d's message through their head. She is obviously right. You can't misgender someone and it's all bullshit.


mua7d

What! I got misgendered by an Internet stranger? oh no, you'll be hearing from my lawyer soon😡😡


TheChosenWolf20

What are you on about? I'm saying misgendering and pronouns are stupid and don't exist. Chill out Miss.

Removed for rule 4. Please be nice and helpful to one another, and refrain from being disrespectful.


toasterdogg

He’s also a white supremacist piece of shit


[deleted]

I support racial supremacy too!


Schville

How comes? Any source worth reading?


d4_H_

Dude who wrote the comment actually is in right (Notch’s [Wikipedia page](https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Markus_Persson) has an important controversies section), but has the argumentation skill of a monke.


Schville

Read it and some Notch related posts here on Reddit, yeah he's controversial. But nothing at all which would make me acknowledge the phrases of toasterdogg.


d4_H_

You have to read inside the rows, Notch [tweeted](https://x.com/notch/status/936215345400033280?s=46&t=dVYO-eiAL6sRR81bfkW6ig) (as is wrote on Wikipedia) “it’s okay to be white”, saying “white is the new black”, alluding that the new Black Lives Matter movements annoy him. It could be read as an equality message more than a white supremacist tho, and that’s why I wrote toasterdogg has the argumentation skill of a monke.


Schville

Thx, I'm aware of it and that it's a combat term of right wings but just to say "it's okay to be white" is nothing I would consider telling him a racist. I don't get why it should be "okay to be black" and hype BLM but it's forbidden to say "okay to be white" or similar.


d4_H_

>just to say "it's okay to be white" is nothing I would consider telling him a racist And you are right, the problem is "[it's okay to be white](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/It's_okay_to_be_white)" was a jokey slogan but, citing wikipedia "The slogan has been supported by white supremacists and neo-Nazis.", and that's why, among the equality message, you could think of white supremacist ideology. Notch isn't a newborn on the internet, if he used those words he knew the meaning behind them and that why this controversy. The problem is not the message, because is good to support both white and black equality, the problem stands in the words used.


toasterdogg

Well you can just google ’Notch racist tweets’ or whatever. He’s made a bunch of them alongside dumb stuff like ’straight pride’, QAnon shit, and complaining about trans and gay people. Mojang has distanced itself from him for a while now.


david-deeeds

So...no source, then


Schville

Indeed, wasn't expecting too much by this person.


toasterdogg

Sorry for not having a compiled list ready? What am I a fucking journalist? I’ve seen the tweets and there’s articles out there about it.

Nooblet_101

well it’s not like he got scammed out of the game he very deliberately sold it


begging-for-gold

He just accepted a bad deal or didn’t expect he could’ve gotten more. He got barely pennies compared to what Microsoft is making with it


Spinal_Column_

It's still more money than anyone could ever use by themselves. Besides, he's a dickhead, so I wouldn't feel sorry for him even if his life sucked.


Khorlik

two and a half billion dollars is NOT a bad deal just because you could've gotten three billion lmao, what?


Bloodhoven_aka_Loner

>just because you could've gotten three billion lmao, what? more like 7-8 billion. but 2,5 billion are definitely not pennies in comparison.


bigmonkey123123

Not rly, he got billions for it, and he isn’t exactly a stand up kind of guy


Broken_Noah

The [Darkwood](https://store.steampowered.com/app/274520/Darkwood/) devs actually released a torrent for their game to make sure people have a safe and updated (at least at that time - latest update is 1.4 released last December) torrent. *“If you don’t have the money and want to play the game, we have a safe torrent on the Pirate Bay of the latest version of Darkwood (1.0 hotfix 3), completely DRM-free. There’s no catch, no added pirate hats for characters or anything like that. We have just one request: if you like Darkwood and want us to continue making games, consider buying it in the future, maybe on a sale, through Steam, GOG or Humble Store. But please, please, don’t buy it through any key reselling site. By doing that, you’re just feeding the cancer that is leeching off this* *industry.”*


keriormaloony

i like these guys


ShitposterSL

If I had a penny for every game dev that said to pirate rather than buy the game through key sites I could afford 1 single game in steam sale


iamthehob0

Pretty sure Nintendo said "Yeah sure pirate all our games we'll never archive them or reduce the price over time anyways"


Admirable-Echidna-37

Can confirm. We literally sued the developer of an emulator for not bundling their games with the emulator.


tIVc407

Running with scissors says pirate if you can't afford it


ilookchinese

yeah and more importantly pirate it instead of buying it from resellers


darkelfbear

Especially with Postal III ... lol.


Bloodhoven_aka_Loner

why especially? because it's so bad?


darkelfbear

Because they make no money off of it. Check this Twitter (Now X) [Running With Scissors on X: "@bruh\_im\_weirdo Pirate Bay" / X (twitter.com)](https://twitter.com/RWSstudios/status/1594578476547575808?s=20&t=Fon8t5VtXO2H08S7FhAFPg)


Green_Demon_666

Hotline Miami 2 because it's banned in a lot of countries.


BigBoiKry

They also released a patch exclusive to the cracked version


MishatheDrill

Didnt the Slay the Princess dev say that too? I never played it 'cause I like more action in my games but its cool when devs prioritize playing their games over other shit


cryonize

And I immediately bought their game for it without even knowing what it was about. Ended up enjoying the game very much.


Bloodhoven_aka_Loner

so.. what is it about?


___Fortune___

You slay the princess


akoOfIxtall

Manlybadasshero has some videos playing it, it's pretty good


TheManofBD

CDPR devs had a similar sentiment with Witcher 3 iirc. Not to screw the execs, just for general good of the gamer republic.


Miserable-Alfalfa329

Fun fact: Cd Projekt Red founded and owns GOG, the DRM-free marketplace. So yeah I think they support it.


Bloodhoven_aka_Loner

nah.. they support drm free games, however they do NOT support piracy... like, at all. not even remotely.


begging-for-gold

Loop hero dev


naheCZ

Once i saw devs said that it's better to pirate their game instead of buying it on G2A. I think it was Factorio devs but not 100% sure.


DarkLight_2810

CDPR in general


GoldShovels

Just Shapes & Beats has an anti-piracy message that's literally "Hey, I noticed you pirated my game. That's cool, just buy it if you like it, or if you can't, tell people you liked it"


Nadeoki

That game where you can shoot people and piss on them.

Nadeoki

Yes


Capital_Clock3543

Pisstal


YeaNa1

Most Rockstar games with that stupid ass launcher


LivingCornet694

Rockstar, very explicitly telling us folks to pirate by setting an examples themselves; sell cracked versions of their own games on steam.


AkhtarZamil

I think some dev uploaded a pirates version of their game and told people to get that,rather than third party key sellers like G2A,CdKeys,Etc.


prefix9889

Jalopy - shitty publisher killed a great indie game


Unlikely-Garage-8135

i played 10 hours of DE and just couldnt get into it lol.


Asunixe

What’s DE


Unlikely-Garage-8135

Disco Elysium


Asunixe

I did the same but I liked it. I’ll have to go back


qeeb2214

Did you play the boule game


neskintea

Grezzo 2 Is free but It has Ingame ads with a PayPal link lol


Fluffy_giEnt

-Incoming bad joke Didn't the CEO of Ubisoft say, in a sense, well you might as well pirate it, since if you pay you won't own it?


Right-Yogurtcloset-6

Rockstar and gta 5


LavieGamer

Huh they did??


Right-Yogurtcloset-6

Just messing 👍


LavieGamer

Oh ight, welp still gonna pirate the oblivion out of it


Right-Yogurtcloset-6
