NDAs exist for a reason...

If they let this guy off with a slap in the wrist, they'll have people leaking stuff left and right.

It's about the punishment fitting the crime. He leaked a pic of a new map for a FREE game. Epic has lost exactly nothing. If anything he's probably made them money. What's appropriate for shoplifting in your opinion? Hanging?

They lost tens of millions in earned media views. That's quantifiable.

And he won't be sued for much. But if you don't enforce NDAs, why have them? So people are simply on the honor system?

Stop blaming the publishers or devs, and blame the dumbfucks who give them money. Seriously,they make a game where food rots. Then sell you a way to make your food not rot. Your armor needs repaired? Here buy this kit ! Why in the name of holy fuck would anyone do that?

Mentions of games from 2003 always give me flashbacks to when I worked at Game Stop.
I alphabetized that XIII on the shelves many many times.

Did you file it under T or X?

X of course, because the title is "XIII"

Everything you need to know about this.

Epic made over 3 billion last year, and yet their store is held together by popsicle sticks and glue. BTW Steam had preloading for Half-Life 2 as far back as 2004, during a time when most consoles only had physical media. For PC gamers, preloading has been a standard thing for the past 15 years until this year...

Australia must have some really easily impressionable people living there.

Not that at all, and the US and many other countries could stand to do the same. Shits out of control. And what were they thinking putting in marijuana? How stupid was that!

This site has zero ability to detect humor.

I'm hoping that this is a joke too...

Case in point.

And I am over here with Steam that will pre-load CP2077 and VTMB2 without issue. Just like I pre-loaded GTA V, Civ6, MK11 and others. It's calls a platform that is mature and built with forethought vs one rushed out. Marvel vs DCEU all over again.

It's not like Epic needs forethought. All they need to do is copy what Valve did and have preloading standard prior to launching their storefront. It's not rocket science. Just copy the competition.

A 500 person studio and those games are the best they can come up with? Why so many people for such small and crappy games? I'd have assumed they were made by teams of 6-12 people at most.

Here's a crazy idea: Release your game on all stores, and let people chose where to buy it. Raise the price on other stores that take a bigger cut to make up for the difference in what EGS takes. It's a win for everyone, consumers get to chose where to buy the game and the dev/pub gets the same profit, more probably since it would be available and getting exposure on more store fronts.

Yea, that would go over like a lead balloon...you'd have people yelling and screaming about how more expensive it is on X or Y store. I mean, we already get this a lot with things like GMG's prices compared to straight Steam.

There's really no 'good' way to do something like that and not have someone, somewhere, screaming about X store making things too expensive.

Boohoo, too bad. If someone wants it badly in their store of choice, they'd need to pay for it and support their freedom of choice.

I happily pay a higher price and buy whatever I can on GOG.com for their lack of anti-piracy software.

Sorry but cross-region reselling isn't illegal regardless of quantity. Publishers and devs don't like it but that doesn't make it fraud.

As for the delay in G2A's response, it takes time to check 300+ keys against the sales history on the site, especially if they don't have any tools specifically designed to do that. If they don't have any tools for that, they should definitely buy/make some.
