By JesalR Go To PostWhat the hell is he talking about? It literally says Hong Kong in the TOS. China considers HK a part of China and is now subject to their laws. Why go out of your way to defend this?
By diehard Go To PostWhat the hell is he talking about? It literally says Hong Kong in the TOS. China considers HK a part of China and is now subject to their laws. Why go so far out of your way to defend this?Because he's part of the Chinese industry, it it's always been pretty blalant how he goes crazy when someone says China may be doing something wrong
Isn't the issue he's addressing the recent outrage to the PlayStation ToS when the section in question has been in their ToS for at least 17 years?
Or that the section in question is mainland china specific/excluding HK?***
***please understand, i have NO idea what I'm talking about

By sy Go To PostIsn't the issue he's addressing the recent outrage to the PlayStation ToS when the section in question has been in their ToS for at least 17 years?HK used to be specifically exempt but the new one doesn't appear to indicate any exemption. Which is obvious because they are actually no longer exempt according to their laws. Even if it was always there , shedding more light on it isn't bad and doing an "um, actually" is a bad look IMO.
By JesalR Go To PostDoes the part where it specifies users from Mainland China not exclude HK?I think the new in-game TOS is the revised one? Could be wrong though.
Either way, whether they state it or not.. HK doesn't have those separations now.
By diehard Go To PostI think the new in-game TOS is the revised one?The doc he linked is October 2020. Before the section that was in the original screenshot it says:
Either way, whether they state it or not.. HK doesn't have those separations now.
"For users with China Mainland as country / area of residence"
I was wondering if there's some reason why that no longer excludes HK
By Daz Go To PostChina kinda goes unchecked world wide hun?Having a very large customer base in addition to providing cheap labor and products for corporations in a capitalistic society will do that.

So the Terms of Service basically don't really mean anything anymore, if you are an HK resident you are subject to all those mainland China laws now.

He wasn't defending the ToS, he's addressing some dumbass conspiracy that China can impose this worldwide.
By Flutter Go To Postlmao you lotIf the conspiracy revolves around China pressuring Sony to push censorship worldwide at the risk of losing their business then its a legitimate concern. I kinda doubt people are thinking that China is going to be arresting people in other countries.

There's a China Scare at the west at the moment, and you're playing right into it.
Hell, dude addresses dumb conspiracies and some here sees that as Pro China, because he also reports on the asian gaming industry is hilarious.
Sony has to pick a side when it's pay time lmao
I'm too high to read all of that but if it doesn't apply to HK anyway its all moot

By Flutter Go To PostThat's why he was addressing it, yes.Dismissing it as a "China Scare" would make a lot of sense if we didn't have countless examples of the CCP pushing censorship abroad, specifically by using their economic power and "western sensibilities" as weapons.

I don't think its something that Sony would be doing, but its certainly not ridiculous enough to completely dismiss it.
By diehard Go To PostDismissing it as a "China Scare" would make a lot of sense if we didn't have countless examples of the CCP pushing censorship abroad, specifically by using their economic power and "western sensibilities" as weapons.and on this specific case, someone took a look at a ToS and mistaken it as something new that can be applied worldwide, when his point was this
As much as I despise the Chinese government, it doesn't mean that i'm ok with fake conspiracy theories getting floated about.
Right, but like i was saying.. people seeing that and having an adverse reaction is totally fine by me, TOS being old or not.
The "It does not apply to Hong Kong" is just flat out.. wrong? It's like putting something that is a local law in your TOS and then saying "Yeah this doesn't actually apply to you though".

By diehard Go To PostRight, but like i was saying.. people seeing that and having an adverse reaction is totally fine by me, TOS being old or not.The issue is people seeing this part of the ToS as something new, when it has been there for years, and conflates it with what was more concerning, China's new National Security Law.
The "It does not apply to Hong Kong" is just flat out.. wrong? It's like putting something that is a local law in your TOS and then saying "Yeah this doesn't actually apply to you though".
- Therefore it cannot be in response to the new Hong Kong National Security Law, nor does it apply to Hong Kong
- The ToS image is above is just the 'Interim Administrative Provisions on Internet Culture' law which was introduced in China during 2003 for all online products
and then somehow, suggest that it's applicable worldwide.

Why did Dan Houser get the axe again? Was it the labor abuses? Harrassment? Bad press? D, all of the above?
By Not Go To PostWhy did Dan Houser get the axe again? Was it the labor abuses? Harrassment? Bad press? D, all of the above?He didnt?
He was on vacation post rdr2 & announced his departure in february. Im guessing hes retired. Hes almost 50 and has 10s of millions in the bank,
The other rockstar lifer lazlow was also on sabbatical then announced his departure because all his family members kept getting cancer.
By Yurtlicious Go To Postyes!!ty reilo for giving us a platform to spread h8
Even I appreciate it even though your choices in life i.e. consoles are questionable.
Speaking of stuff I hate- dropping Hades now. Cleared it once and have no more desire to revisit it. At least that is what my addictive self is trying to tell itself.
By sy Go To PostKD with the legacy 95
hopefully they added more movesets to the others too
I dont get why they're releasing a goty edition when the game has no paid dlc lol..
The only boss that gives me a ton of problems still in Hades is the final boss. Everyone else I can deal with without a death (aside from the occasional third boss fight).

Fuck this game with all my heart
Been playing a bit of Fallout 76 and while it gives a better first impression than F4 and might even be a better out of the box experience, it's just not worth. No mods automatically make it a lesser product, and it still feels like your average online game where nothing matters story wise, you just log on to do dailies and repetitive tasks and the atom shop is pushed on you for a gameplay advantage.
Same reason I can't play ESO. It has a lot of the good things TES has, but it's also just an MMO and who has time for those these days

Got my first two clears in Hades, it's a great game, and I'm at the point where learning the boss patterns has made it relatively simple to get to Styx. Doing runs with increased heat should be fun too.
I think the grind to get Titan Blood for the weapon aspects is a bit of a pain though, just feels a little slow

what happeneddddd
wait don't tell me, the answer is 'deflect' properly and never roll/dodge. And buy Mikiri Counter ASAP to counter their *red* thrust attacks.
By Kidjr Go To PostFuck this game with all my heartI’m with you on this chief, Simon Says: The Game fucking blows. What a downgrade from Souls and Bloodborne
Tempted to get Hades, then thought I'd rather wait for a sale and redownloaded Diablo 3 on the Switch instead.
Adventure mode is just too good.

sekiro was great. i do miss some of the souls atmopshere, but gameplay wise it's easily my favorite. and any souls like game > bloodborne, cause you dont need to play that shit with unstable 30fps and chromatic aberration.
By Perfect Blue Go To PostI’m with you on this chief, Simon Says: The Game fucking blows. What a downgrade from Souls and Bloodborneif they do x you counter with y, isn't that sword duels in a nutshell.
but thats if you wanna play it passively, you can absolutely overwhelm them.
By Flutter Go To PostTempted to get Hades, then thought I'd rather wait for a sale and redownloaded Diablo 3 on the Switch instead.

It's on sale at the moment on the Epic Games store and you can get it for a fiver if you have one of their money off coupons
By Yurtlicious Go To Postif they do x you counter with y, isn't that sword duels in a nutshell.Beat the whole game and all the bosses and each fight ends up the exact same way. Got so bored and I haven’t been more disappointed in a new release since Final Fantasy XIII. People excuse the game’s lack of options due to it being an action game but DMC and Ninja Gaiden give you plenty of options to switch it up and do things differently so idk.
but thats if you wanna play it passively, you can absolutely overwhelm them.
Only time I felt the game changed it up was the monkeys and Demon of Hatred, and the latter is genuinely one of the worst bosses I’ve played in memory.
isnt simon says most video games
normally you have a boss and the boss does a thing and you gotta learn how to react to it
idk why sekiro is unique in this
