They were on such a promising trajectory but then all their underlying values changed. It wasn’t just the games that got crappier. They are a company I would never exchange money with today.

you’re aggressively missing the point

you can be wrong all you like but we have the data. the claim isn’t that violent videogames cause violence, it’s that venting your aggression breeds further aggression. most people don’t play violent video games because they need an outlet for their aggression and violence!! if that is something you experience, it’s not something fucking video games can help you with!! you need to actually work on your shit.
