General Discussion - Voting with your wallet is truly impossible now - Forum

Tencent owns GGG. Tencent supposedly won't meddle with GGGs production. Income goes to Tencent, not GGG. Your money is no longer influencing the developers. Last bumped on Aug 13, 2018, 9:03:09 PM	Posted by SuicideAll on Aug 13, 2018, 9:03:09 PM Quote this Post

Does the OP not know anything about the fact that GGG is still taking the income, and only a small portion of total profits within a quarter are going to Tencent specifically to improve monetary margins to give GGG more monetary support? Essentially investing into their own futures as a company that can make long-term, real decisions to benefit their playerbase? Or does the OP truly not know about the fact that Tencent has a well-documented history of not meddling in Western titles due to the fact that they don't understand the western market? I believe its none of these things: instead, I believe the OP to be quite uneducated in mnners of buying companies. Unfortunate, but unsurprising.

Voting with wallet always works unless its gov who is allowed to steal money from you like a mafia extortionist racket. Then gov workers DGAF. But even tencent with 50 billion in the bank wants profit and cant have it unless customer is happy Git R Dun!
