What's the most fucked up thing devs do?
Other urls found in this thread:
They could have easily included him in the base game and donated a fraction of the profit from that.
is monolith too cheap to offer their employees life insurance or something?
is like that tweet from some restaurant thing saying that you are shitty person for not tipping, if you paid people proper benefits and a proper salary you wouldn't need this kind of "noble" stunts
Base game has already been boxed and shipped to physical stores by now probably, game isn't worked on up until release date, there's a point well in advance they have to stop and get the discs ready.
>my family member died of cancer
>now give me money
ok
Fucking Jews
>money for a fucking producer
I find it hard it believe that employees would support this.
>cutting out the bit that says all profit goes to his family for the first few months
Wow, so fucked up.
but user, women can't work and an widow has a hard time remarrying
>Base game has already been boxed and shipped to physical stores by now probably
BB has currently received zero copies.
NO DAT'S SEXIS!
All profit should go to his family forever. A company trying to profit off of the death of an employee is fucking pathetic.
actually only 3.50$ for each purchase from select countries in the us go to the family.
the rest goes back to warner brothers pocket.
dont believe me? look up the trailer and look at the fineprint all the way in the bottom where they say they will donate.
>needs to do Jewish DLC scheming where they skim 99% of the profits instead of providing employee life insurance
Nah, fuck you dumbass. Monolith is doing this to make money from sympathetic morons, not because they love their employees.
youtu.be
oh god its real.
only a few states in the us actually count towards the family donations.
the rest of the world who purchase this will send their money straight to WB.
same as every charity ever
>the donations from the states this applies only happen because its illegal to profit from dead people in those states.
well hollee fucken shiet.
But cancer, he had cancer. Don't you know someone with cancer? If you buy this DLC their cancer will go away and if they died from cancer they will be resurrected. Based monolith and warner bros saving the human race.
That doesn't even begin to make it ok
You fuckers are horrible. There is absolutely nothing wrong with this. It's a great gesture and it helps his family.
holy fuck it keeps getting better
It only excludes 6 states, $3.50 out of the 5bux isn't "most of the profits" and they still need to get paid for making it and putting it up on the marketplace, plus there are certain laws in place where you can't just donate full profits from something to individuals. Stay salty nerds.
It's the scummiest thing I've heard about.
can i guess which country you're from
funds should be for charities, not for personal stuff, it's just not fair
i think both monolith and warner brothers are scummy subhuman trash.
i still cant forgive them for avp3.
it was the only game i ever preordered and the last game i did.
>dont worry goyim well support the game in the future
>oh whats that on disc dlc thats completely done and can be unlocked with a config tweak? dont mind that just buy it for 10 bucks sucka.
>oh hey yeah i know we promised mod support and had it actually working halfway but we dont think right now its what fans of the series truly want. i mean the previous games didnt have much of a modding scene after all.
i hate them so fucking much.
> they still need to get paid for making it and putting it up on the marketplace
No they fucking don't. Do you know how charity works?
also i know avp3 was developed by rebellion but monolith had their grubby hands all over it.
>tfw my foreskin was taken from me and sold for stem cell research against my will
Fucking bullshit, if some nigger ever invents stem cell based foreskin restoration it better be free for every man that was forcibly mutilated.
Are you actually unironically defending a company trying to profit off of an employee's death? They shouldn't be taking ANY of the profits, it's fucking charity.
Do you? There's legal reasons it doesn't apply to all states and they can't donate 100% of the profits otherwise they probably would. Only other option is to make it free and nobody gets anything, stop getting mad over a good gesture fag.
>that ratio of thumbs up/down
absolutely disgusting.
This. I preordered Middle-earth:Shadow of War as soon as I saw this and will buy that DLC for sure, as well as all other DLC they release due to goodwill.
How is this profiting off an employee's death?
The family is getting the majority of earnings. Hardly scummy, and where do people get the idea that the guy didn't want to be in a videogame? He was a producer ffs, if anything I wouldn't be surprised if he asked to be in it.
>family gave permission
>got a bunch of money for literally no work
>fucked up
Sup Forums has a strange sense of morality
>Working for WB gives you cancer
>WB traps your soul in DLC forever
>WB takes all the profit your family could have from outside the US and some states in the US
Being a Monolith dev must be suffering
Goddamn America is HUNG no wonder Europe is importing niggers
>Not having parents that actually care about your well being
>stem cell research
that's not what happened at all. your foreskin was eaten by the volcano demon that jews worship
>it's just not fair
How is it not? The family deserves it more than some charity paying their employees.
>profiting off dead employees
this is literally the worst DLC practice that can be done
right?
They're prohibited by law from giving away all the money, doesn't work the same when you're donating money to individuals than registered charity organizations.
>they can't donate 100% of the profits otherwise they probably would
You're too naive. WB is a money hungry piece of shit company. Are you seriously trying to tell me that a company that puts micro-gambling lootboxes in a full priced single player game would "probably" donate all the profits if they could?
This is like those white cucks who always shows up to protest racism despite the races being "prejudiced" against being okay with what's going on. The family is obviously okay with it. That's all that matter. The fact that we even have to have this thread shows how many cucks are on here.
>profit off of an employee's death?
Godamn you're retarded.
>WB takes all the profit your family could have
But without WB the family would get 0 money because the man was a nobody
ALL money from purchases in some states in America will be going to the person's family. It's being done for charity, not profit.
your foreskin was used to graft gorge soros new heart into his chest.
its not gonna be used for any actual research.
once soros has absorbed the foreskins of 9614 goyim he will be born anew.
Would you guys rather they just do nothing?
No because it requires the family's permission and WB is providing them money they could not have earned on their own
Only $3.50 out of every $5 goes to the family, and only in some states, and only for a certain amount of time. How in the fuck is this not profiting off of a dead employee?
Source, and I'll believe you.
>faceless corporate goons became gud bois overnight and just want to help, no cynical attempt to create buzz around a product here
But with a good employer sponsored life insurance policy his family would've gotten money.
You're a retard. They don't receiver them the day production starts. And it's a 3 month process.
Blizzard is just as money hungry and they do charity events where all profits for the first couple of months are donated, so yeah, I'm pretty sure they would if they could as it would only be good PR.
Yea, just don't even bother. Everything is a some conspiracy of oppression and exploitation.
These anons are mentally retarded.
The Middle-earth series already had a ton of hype and buzz though. The amount generated by this is minuscule compared to what it already had.
Nigger do you even insurance or are you still on your parents plan?
the absolute state of urbanites
>donating money to individuals
>Hey can I have 10 bux?
>Sure here's 8.50
>Its the law bro
this was all warner brothers
the most scummy publisher out there
worse than EA, Ubisoft or Activision
WB is scum.
>NOBODY talking about the stupid fucking character
WHY does this have to be LOTR
I think more people would like this if it wasn't. For fucks sakes
>mfw people tell me Capitalism isn't evil
ALL PROFIT GOES TO THE FAMILY***
*a cut of the profit
*from sales in a select amount of us states only
*for a couple months only
Really user? This is evil?
But not starving millions? Not forcing people to live in a communist shithole? Not erasing all individual freedoms to create a dead collective nation?
Ok there tankie, move to venezuela or Cuba then.
I'm not a full bottle on the subject and it varies from country to country and state to state which is why some are outright excluded as they mention, but is mostly to do with taxes and there's actually a lot of laws surrounding fundraising, in some cases you even need to obtain a license before you can collect and donate funds.
Because his family gave the company permission to do it and are receiving a cut of the profit.
>only one thing can be evil at a time
what a fucking retarded argument
>giving a beggar on the street a tenner is the same as a big corporation donating profits from a product to an individual rather than a charity organization
>I have absoluletly no perspective
>be antifa
>have every single corporation support your views and fight your enemies
>still feel like a revolutionary fighting the power
Nice rebuttal! But please, keep defending failed ideologies kills millions.
You do realise that they're going to write off all this in their tax right?
This is cynical bullshit and you shouldn't defend it for a fucking picosecond.
>majority of the profit
>from states where law isn't prohibiting them from doing so
>from the period when the majority of the DLC will be purchased before being added into a complete edition
no they dont deserve it
they may need it but i bet that they dont as that guy worked for a major studio his family must be all more wealth than me
>Sup Forums
>where we argue about where money from a DLC goes to
can you link the statute?
So if I kill someone for no reason that's not evil because, hey, taken in perspective, that's basically no one compared millions dying in shitholes elsewhere!
Calling capitalism evil is not a defense of communism you literal retard. Holy shit you are fucking stupid.
i wish every single one of these thread policemen would kill themselves
>they may need it but i bet that they dont as that guy worked for a major studio his family must be all more wealth than me
So basically you it isn't fair because they have more mone than you? The world doesn't owe shit user, no one else is responsible for your lack of wealth.
Yes user, everybody knows charitable donations are tax deductible, that isn't some big huge evil secret. Fact of the matter is they're giving enough as they're allowed where they didn't have to do anything at all and all anyone can whinge about is it isn't enough, boo fucking hoo, you are naive and know nothing of the world.
Hey brother brother, everyone's stating their own stupid fucking opinion on the ECONOMICS of a dlc they won't buy, and I'm telling y'all that I'm laffin
are you disingenuous anons seriously going to pretend that people who post anti-capitalism/anti-fascism shit aren't supportive of communism?
Yes goy, don't mind that purchases from anywhere else go into the WB coffers.
You're the naive one. The company is using this purely to profit from it. They don't give a fuck about the family. They're there so they can write a bunch of tax off, while pocketing the change from the DLC, this is simply them doubling dipping into this revenue stream and it absolutely should be treated with nothing but contempt and scorn.
RIP thread, it was fun while it lasted.
>the proceeds go to the family
Ok I'll bite what's the issue today?
No, because I don't lump everyone who disagrees with me into a single pile. Like anti-capitalism and anti-fascism.
not because of me what i said is that they most likely arent people in need
money is best donated to people who actually need it like people with cancer, not functional people who can get a job and from a wealthy family
Calling capitalism evil is misnomer all in itself, capitalism is flawed. Communism is evil because it is morally reprehensible in its foundations.
Also, most people that say capitalism is evil are tankies and adore communism.
...
Read the fucking thread, jesus
the issue is you're a retard who is unable to read:
>No
>no, i'm not going to pretend
so you agree that the poster is probably a communist? because the rest of your post seems to imply you don't.
Oppression and exploitation, everyone is out to get them. 5 minutes in and then they bring out "das kapital" to teach you the good word.
I dunno, the guy is immortalized as something cool and his family gets some of the cash. You keep pushing this as being an evil corp, but if I snuffed it I wouldn't mind this happening to me.
They didn't have to make the dlc at all, or they could have made it and not named it after him and given the money to his family.
