Blxter , to games in Marvels Rivals requires creators to sign a contract that removes your right to give a negative review in order to access the playtest
@Blxter@lemmy.zip avatar

Could be wrong but this does not sound sound outlandish for a alpha. There should be no point to ruin a name/brand before it is out. You should not leave a “review” of a unfinished product.

zalgotext ,

If the product is unfinished, why is it being released to the public, in any capacity?

If they want to playtest and find bugs in their unfinished product, they should do that. By paying a QA team and playtesters, not by trying to dupe streamers into generating free advertisement.

You have never played an early alpha of a game and signed a NDA to not disclose it I did this with many games the finals, th division heatland, x defient, arc raiders etc. although in this case since there are yt videos and streams seems a little weird. I was uneducated the games I am talking about when I played had watermarks on them and were made for testing etc had no idea the game was like viewable. In this case it looks more like if tarkov or an EA game said you can’t leave reviews.

To clarify yes I fully agree that not ok and didn’t know the full facts.

Hmm… A perfectly neutral review with a share of the wording from the contract is nothing but factual, and I believe could be argued to be non disparaging?

voracitude ,

No, disparaging is disparaging, even if it’s warranted. But, if I were a small streamer who got a key, I would just repeat the non-disparagement clause any time I saw something obviously broken.

They can stop me saying anything negative but that doesn’t cover body language (they might try to sue but they wouldn’t ever be able to prove it to the degree required unless I had posted something like this explanation, and even then it’s dicey), and I don’t see anything in there about a minimum number of positive sentences of words to hit. God help these chucklefucks if they ever run into a Djinni or a cursed monkey’s paw.

This reminds me of how my manager would always book vacations to align with major rollouts.

the number of games that insist on pushing out patches, expansions, hotfixes on Fridays …

arudesalad ,

One of the mmo devs for a game I play did that. Game was unplayable for all of Christmas. They are never doing that again.

Toes ,

I was responsible for a 100k user outage around Christmas. It’s the eggnog man it guides you.

Immersive_Matthew , to aboringdystopia in The Palestine experience

These particular officers are really only making their ranks look bad in the eyes of the people they are claiming to protect. If they are not disciplined in a meaningful way, then there is a big problem here brewing.

@theacharnian@lemmy.ca avatar

They are not “only making their ranks look bad”. More important than their fucking looks and reputation is that they are also brutalizing and traumatizing an occupied People.

Immersive_Matthew ,

Agreed. We do not know the whole story here, but it does not look good and I am willing to bet these people being attacked is unjustified.

SkyezOpen ,

We do not know the whole story here

Maybe not he whole story for this specific instance, but the whole story generally is something that rhymes with “Israel is a genocidal apartheid state.”

Immersive_Matthew ,

I would agree with that by the evidence we are seeing but the comment I made was about this incident specifically in the USA.

brain_in_a_box ,

then there is a big problem here brewing

I don’t know if you’ve been living under a rock or something, but we’re a bit past that point mate.

Banana_man ,

My guy Palestine is occupied since 1948 by Israel who, usually, “only” did sporadic bombings here and there. Now there’s an active war with some 35k dead and Israeli forces preparing to invade Rafah which has an encampment of unthinkable amounts of refugees. There’s a genocide going on right now. This kind of behaviour is encouraged, not ignored. Their ranks look bad enough committing genocide, it isn’t a few “bad apples”.
