| ZMythos 10/05/23 3:13:17 PM #26 | Video makes some fine critiques. I agree with some and disagree with others. I think he overplayed the "criticizing totk will get you publicly stoned" bit
One argument I never liked is the "give us back traditional dungeons" complaint. I don't believe you could ever design a OoT/TP/WW Dungeon with BotW/TotK mechanics and movement. The whole "solve room-by-room puzzles and combat until you get the one item that works against the boss and collects dust for the rest of the game" doesn't work in a game about finding resources, taking risks, exploring new places, trying new approaches to familiar situations, and being prepared for the unknown. I think BotW and TotK dungeons could have been better done, getting to the dungeons was almost always more fun than the dungeons themselves even. But forcing the old formula into a new game just isn't it. --- Rainbow Dashing: "it's just star wars" AutumnEspirit: *kissu* |

| ZMythos 10/05/23 3:02:28 PM #10 | There was also a $275 million penalty assessed for Epic in December 2022 related to privacy issues with Fortnite.
Basically, the game had voice chat and display names on by default. Since kids and teens are the target audience, this of course led to lots of bullying, threats, and (sexual) harassment. Epic also collected kids' under 13 information without parental consent for at least 2 years. https://consumer.ftc.gov/consumer-alerts/2022/12/gift-privacy-fortnite-players So in total we're looking at over half a billion in USD that Epic has to fork up. --- Rainbow Dashing: "it's just star wars" AutumnEspirit: *kissu* |

About the Settlement Epic Games, the company responsible for Fortnite, agreed to pay $245 million to settle FTC allegations related to in-game purchases. According to the FTC, the company charged parents and gamers of all ages for unwanted items and locked the accounts of customers who disputed wrongful charges with their credit card companies. Not sure what the full details are, or how this could apply to other games/companies, but this seems to be specific to Fortnite. --- Rainbow Dashing: "it's just star wars" AutumnEspirit: *kissu* |

Oh?

This is the same channel that made the videos about NFTs and Decentraland/Metaverse.
