I haven't heard of these events.

Oh no!!! Now I'm depressed... But focusing on it more!

Thankfully, there are many people who don't think like this.

Dunno why people down voted you for asking, but personally while I love some of their games and the creative direction they take their consoles - they just have way too many anti-consumer practices.

From recent memory, they've DMCA takedowned YouTube videos of people playing modded versions of Breath of the Wild before Tears of the Kingdom released. This isn't the firs time they've DMCA takedowned videos they didn't like, including videos showing emulation in the past. Their online service, despite costing money to play games online, primarily relies on peer to peer networking when their console has a very weak networking chip, meaning most online games have to account for very poor connections. They have been very aggressive in shutting down websites distributing Roms for games that no longer have a way to be accessed or played. It stinks that you have to pay for their online service if you want any form of save data backups, and even those are iffy because they really don't want you putting it on more than one console. Their handling of joyconn drift has left a lot to be desired. They replaced them... Sometimes... And when they did you had to wait a while and usually the replacement would develop it, too.

The goal could also be PC gaming on a standalone VR headset.

Just be happy, problems solved. No need to thank me.

Let them poison AI with bad grammar.

Remastered Hunter never sat right with me. It was a little more believable that the original PS1 Hunter would be the kind of cat that would withold orbs from you, that they already had (which would be used to save the worlds), just because they wanted to play a game.

Tell Mastodon I said hi back!

Then again, I could care less. It would be fun to also get a good multiplayer but I guess I have no real hope for that.

If there is a large, well made single player campaign then I couldn't care less about whether the multiplayer is pay to win. The last one was really fun, and I hope this upcoming one is the same.

For the record, they still claim that they do not sell user information nor data.

 

If you go into your match history or any counterstrike community you will see lots and lots of banned CS2 players. It seems the latest ban wave has some sort of mistake and lots of innocent players are involved. I am personally not banned but a few of my friends who were definitely not cheating were banned.

It also seems that playing a game right now has decent odds of banning you mid-game. There's lots of footage of this happening during mundane gunfights.

With the scale of this, there's no way they don't reverse most, if not all, bans in this wave. There's simply no way that this many players were actually cheating.

Just putting something here in case someone who avoids other social media wants to know what's going on.
