/mww/ Make Waves in Washington - General

The enemy is weak and there is a benefit to both the GOP and the DNC to strike for self-promotion. We should take this opportunity to fan the flames caused by ElectronicArts ahead of the upcoming mid-terms and make gambling mechanics in games a national issue. Hawaii is already on it, we can make this happen everywhere.

> 2. Get WH attention (Trump will likely speak in our favor on this given his bad relationship with most of Hollywood (especially Warner bros.).

> 3. Get this as a talking point in more states than just Hawaii, try to target conservative areas that are already very skeptical about games and inform them about gambling. Places with religious people are even better!

> 4. Videos, and lots of them! We need to make content and get the opportunists on YouTube to get in on it.

Lets make waves.

...

Fuck off retard

...

>lets continue to bash a game for gambling, even though it has no microtransactions
I hate EA too but you faggots need to learn to inform yourselves

Laughing my ass off. This is what Sup Forums has done to this place.

>We need the government to regulate Video Games!!!

Fuck off reddit.

Reminder that this will only get worse if lootboxes go unchecked.

...

Then stop buying their games/loot boxes. Problem solves itself within the free market. No government intervention required.

>stop buying their games/loot boxes
You are aware you're talking to Sup Forums, and not the rest of the world, right?

>tfw OP will do nothing he is telling other people to do
>he feels that he has done his part by making this cringy thread

pls leave the political activism to reddit.

you dont have to do shit politically. if you want a game to fail... just dont buy it. a lot of you shitposted about this game and went and bought it anyways didnt you?

>stop paying for online
>stop paying for useless shitty DLC
>stop paying for half a game with day one DLC
>stop paying for microtransactions
>stop paying for loot boxes

The market is retarded and is deserving of everything up to this point

>Sup Forums wants lootboxes to go away
>EA fucks up so bad that it lays the groundwork for something like that to happen
>Sup Forums suddenly doesn't want lootboxes to go away because they think regulating means the same thing as communism (which is untrue)

>Making EA the hot issue when there's IoT, Equifax and Verizon/Comcast/Time Warner/ATT to deal with
Politicians would love it.

its typical Sup Forums contrarianism

Never mentioned communism nice strawman. Its the same thing as regulating smoking/drinking/gambling with sin taxes or restrictions. Personally I am all for micro-transaction whales funding new maps/content instead of selling map packs which split the playerbase. Obviously cosmetic only lootboxes is preferable.

>giving a shit about the government getting 'their share'

lmao

>all for micro-transaction whales funding new maps/content instead of selling map packs which split the playerbase.
THAT'S EVEN WORSE

>even though it has no microtransactions
REMOVED TEMPORARILY
